A judge has sentenced the man who shot two people during a crime spree in San Luis Obispo County last August to 54 years to life in prison.
On Aug. 17, 2023, at about 1 p.m., Arnold tried to rob the 7-Eleven on Grand Avenue in Grover Beach. When a male clerk refused to give Arnold money and attempted to call 911, the Visalia man shot him in the neck. Arnold also fired a shot that missed the clerk, went through the 7-Eleven window and narrowly missed two bystanders outside the store, according to the SLO County District Attorney’s Office.
Driving a black Ford Mustang, Arnold headed south to Nipomo where he stole cigarettes from Kachi Smoke Shop. He did not use a firearm while stealing the cigarettes. The SLO resident quickly accelerated in an attempt to flee from Arnold. But, Arnold shot multiple rounds at the victims’ vehicle from his 9mm handgun. Two bullets entered the car, one of which struck the passenger in the back. The driver then transported his son to a local hospital, where he received treatment and was eventually released.
