A man wanted by police for allegedly firing a flare gun at his brother last month was arrested Friday in Yucca Valley.
Police say that on August 24, Raymond Grogins, 21, was arguing with his brother, Scott, in the 7200 block of Palo Alto Avenue when Raymond Grogins grabbed a flare gun and shot it at his brother. Scott Grogins suffered minor injuries when he put up his hand to protect his face. Raymond Grogins ran off and police were unable to locate him.
Then Friday, September 6, the Sheriff’s Department received a call about 9:30 a.m. that Raymond Grogins was arguing with his girlfriend in the 7200 block of Palo Alto Avenue. When deputies arrived, Grogins fled northbound across Highway 62. Deputies chased after Grogins, whom they say kicked in a door to a residence on La Honda.
Grogins was found hiding in a bathroom of the home.
Raymond Grogins was arrested for investigation of assault with a deadly weapon, booked into the Morongo Basin Jail, with his bail set at $50,000.
