Greenfield Man Sentenced to 10 Years in Prison for Felony DUI, Felon in Possession of a Firearm, Assault on a Peace Officer and Other Felony Offenses

SALINAS, California—Monterey County District Attorney Jeannine M. Pacioni announced

that on Friday, January 27, 2023, 26-year-old Bryan Felipe Aguilar of Greenfield was sentenced to 10 years in state

prison after pleading no contest to felony driving with a blood alcohol content of .08% or higher,

felony evading an officer, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, possession of

ammunition, and battery upon a peace officer. He also admitted that he has a prior strike

conviction.

On October 6, 2022, at approximately 6:55 p.m., a California Highway Patrol officer initiated a

traffic stop of a vehicle driven by the defendant. The officer clocked the vehicle travelling 110

mph southbound on US 101 near the San Ardo, California exit.

The officer caught up to the defendant’s vehicle and signaled with his spotlight for the defendant

to pull over to the shoulder. The defendant looked at the officer and then made an accelerated U-

turn through the dirt median of US-101 and accelerated to 130 miles per hour. The defendant

spun out of control several times during the pursuit. Aguilar also struck a stop sign as he led

officers on a high-speed chase down state route 198 and multiple backroads. When the

defendant’s vehicle finally became disabled, he fled on foot and made his way over two barbed-

wire fences before officers caught him.

As officers walked the defendant back to the patrol vehicles, the defendant was aggressive,

slamming his upper body into the shoulder of the arresting officer. The officer tried to regain

control of the defendant, and the defendant kicked the officer on his right hand, injuring the

officer. The officer was medically treated for his injuries and placed on light duty for a short

time. The defendant’s blood alcohol content was .13%. A search of the defendant’s vehicle

yielded a loaded firearm in the center console and ammunition in the cupholder.

This case was prosecuted by the Monterey County District Attorney’s Office specialized DUI

Vertical Prosecution Unit. Funding for this program was provided by a grant from the California

Office of Traffic Safety through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

July 9, 2024- Out of abundance of caution for public health, County of Monterey Parks is closing the Lake San Antonio facility due to a large-scale fish die off from an unknown cause. On July 5, 2024, Parks staff noticed that dead baitfish, mostly shad, began washing up on the shore around Lake San Antonio and immediately contacted California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) to report the situation. At that time, the CDFW fisheries biologist stated the fish die off was most likely due to the high temperatures and low dissolved oxygen level in the water and that the situation most likely did not present a risk to the public. Parks staff also contacted the Water Resources Agency (WRA), State Water Resources Control Board and Environmental Health Bureau. Unfortunately, the fish die off has continued with larger species such as bass, catfish, crappie, carp, and trout being impacted. Attached photos include a 3–4-pound bass.
