SACRAMENTO, Calif. — A 34-year-old man is in Sacramento County Main Jail accused of shooting a woman at a local bar and leading law enforcement on a four-hour-long standoff Saturday night, the Sacramento County Sheriff's Office said in a Facebook post.
Just after 8 p.m. Saturday, deputies were called to a shooting scene at a bar on Madison Avenue in north Sacramento County. After getting to the scene, deputies found a 39-year-old woman who had been shot in the arm.
Deputies say the suspected shooter, later identified as David Faulkenbery, initially left the scene leading to a manhunt. They eventually found Faulkenbery inside of a car in a neighborhood.
According to the Sheriff's Office, Faulkenbery was holding a handgun and refused to comply with commands that deputies gave. After a four-hour-long standoff, Faulkenbery peacefully surrendered and was taken into custody.
He was booked into Sacramento County Main Jail on suspicion of assault on a person with a semi-automatic firearm and robbery. Faulkenbery is being held on $75,000 bail and is slated to appear in court Jan. 31 at 3 p.m.
The woman hurt in the shooting was taken to an area hospital fore treatment of non-life-threatening injuries.
In a Facebook post, Sacramento County Sheriff's Deputies thanked the Placer County Sheriff's Office for their help in the situation, although it is not immediately clear what help the agency provided.
