Ventura County Sheriff's Department

Location: 65 Fix Way, Ventura
On 5-16-2008, at approximately 1000 hours, detectives from the Ventura County Sheriff’s Major Crimes Bureau executed a search warrant at the above address. The search warrant was issued in reference to an on going homicide investigation.

During the search of the location the investigating personnel discovered a possible dangerous electrical wiring situation and a large sub-floor pit containing a significant amount of petroleum distillates. Due to the potential fire and environmental hazards discovered at the location, the Ventura City Fire Department, Ventura City Code Enforcement, and Ventura County Environment Health responded for further inspection. It was determined that Edison officials would need to shut off power to the location and that the structure would be “Red-Tagged” for no further occupancy pending corrections and clean up.
