On November Saturday, 20 at approximately 5:51 am, officers from the King City Police Department and the Monterey County Sheriff’s Office, responded to a report of a man on the 600 block of Canal Street with a firearm threatening to kill a victim. Upon arrival, officers contacted the man identified as 37-year-old Adrian Hernandez Osorio of King City. During a search of Hernandez Osorio officers located a replica firearm, methamphetamine, and drug paraphernalia. Hernandez Osorio was safely taken into custody charged with Terrorist Threats, Displaying an Imitation Firearm, Possession of Methamphetamine and Possession of Drug Paraphernalia.

The King City Police Department would like to remind the community not to take matters into their own hands when they suspect someone is engaging in criminal activity. Please call the police for assistance and be a good witness. Anyone with further information regarding this case is encouraged to contact the King City Police Department at (831) 385-4848; Sergeant Anthony Shaw at (831) 385-4848 or ashaw@kingcity.com; or the WeTip line at 1-800-78-CRIME.
