On February 6, 2023, two suspects attempted to rob a victim at knifepoint at Two Rivers Park in the city of Fillmore.
 
During the month of February 2023, a juvenile female began a social media relationship with a male party.  After her jealous boyfriend Adrian Hernandez became aware of the relationship, he conspired with his relative Daniel Hernandez to lure the victim to Two Rivers Park under false pretense in an attempt harm the victim in revenge. 
 
When the victim showed up to the park, the two suspects attempted to rob the victim at knifepoint.  The victim was able to run away, and he contacted the police.  The victim was not harmed, and no property was stolen.  The suspects then vandalized the victim’s property by slashing the tires of his vehicle with a knife before fleeing the area.  
 
Fillmore station detectives were able to positively identify the parties involved.  On February 8, Fillmore station detectives contacted and arrested Adrian Hernandez in the city of Fillmore.  Adrian Hernandez was booked at the Pre-Trial Detention Facility, and he has since been released on his own recognizance.  The Ventura County District Attorney’s Office filed one count of Felony Conspiracy, Felony Accessory to a Crime, and Attempted Robbery.   
On February 28, Fillmore station detectives contacted and arrested Daniel Hernandez at his place of employment in the city of Santa Paula.  Daniel Hernandez was booked at the Pre-Trial Detention Facility where he remains in custody with his bail set at $110,000.
