ROSEVILLE, Calif. — A suspect in a deadly stabbing is still at large after SWAT officers stormed a home where the suspect was thought to be holed up but instead found it empty.
Police originally responded to reports of a stabbing in on the 600 block of Hanisch Drive around 5:49 p.m. Sunday. Authorities arrived to the scene and gave the victim CPR, but the victim was ultimately pronounced dead. No identifying information about the victim was available.
At first, police thought the suspect was still inside the house.
“At this time, we are treating it as if there is a suspect still inside, but it is unknown if the suspect, or suspects, is inside the house,” Roseville Police Department spokesperson Rob Baquera said.
Roseville/Rocklin SWAT team was called in to determine the suspect's exact whereabouts. Authorities did not know how many people were in the home. Around 10:40 p.m., the SWAT team rushed inside but found it empty.
Authorities say there is no longer a threat to neighbors.
This remains an active and ongoing investigation. Anyone with information about this incident please contact the Roseville Police Department.
This is the first homicide in the City of Roseville in 2021. Roseville had four homicides reported in 2020.
