Local Dodger Stadium Beating Suspect Has Criminal Record

The 30-year-old man from Monrovia who was one of four people arrested on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon in a Dodger Stadium beating has been in trouble with the law before.

The Monrovia man accused of participating in the beating of a fan at Dodger Stadium over the weekend has a history of violating the law, according to court documents.

Arthur Daniel Morales, 30, for allegedly participating in the beating of a motorist at Dodger Stadium following a minor traffic collision Sunday night. Morales is one of four suspects arrested in the case and was driving one of the vehicles involved in the collision, police said.

According to court records, Morales has been convicted of driving without a license twice in 2004 and driving without evidence of insurance and driving outside a marked lane in 2007.

Morales and the driver of another vehicle got out of their cars and argued following the collision after the Dodgers beat the Cardinals Sunday night. The two got into a fistfight and three men in Morales' car then joined in.

"At some point, three guys from another car jumped out, grabbed the victim, threw him down to the ground and held him down, while the fourth person kicked and punched him in the face," LAPD Cmdr. Andy Smith told CBS2.

Three police officers witnessed the attack and quickly apprehended the suspects.

Bail was set at $30,000 for each of the four. The other men were identified as Alan Trujillo, 29, of Los Angeles; Ulisis Briceno, 26, of Los Angeles; and Alejandro Briceno, 29, of La Crescenta.

"All four men have now posted bail," LAPD spokeswoman Officer Karen Rayner said Monday afternoon. "Two were released earlier today and the other two were being processed out late this afternoon.''

The injured man, whose name was withheld, was treated at a hospital and released. A passenger in his vehicle, a woman about eight months pregnant, was taken to a hospital for a precautionary examination and then released, police said. She was not involved in the altercation.

Joan, let me presume you generally understand how the government works, what it can, and can't do,Read More and what freedom of the press really means. If so, theoretically, would you agree that if my post, is correct, would be very disturbing? Would you also agree that because of political leanings, most of the main stream media ignores, and/or twists the events I described to alter public opinion, and minimize it's impact? All of the statements in my original post are factual, out there in the public, in print, on T.V., and the internet. http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics/2013/05/irs-official-in-charge-during-tea-party-targeting-now-runs-health-care-office/ http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2013-01-30/fed-maintains-85-billion-pace-of-purchases-as-growth-pauses.html It is also called qe3 to infinity, If you want a deeper understanding of what lies ahead, then read this guy everyday. He has predicted, and laid out every move for years. http://www.jsmineset.com/2012/09/21/qe3-to-infinitythe-final-end-game/ http://www.forbes.com/sites/ralphbenko/2013/03/11/1-6-billion-rounds-of-ammo-for-homeland-security-its-time-for-a-national-conversation/ I believe the above group of links above is spells it out. Thanks for the challenge. ....

Anyone can post a rant like this...if you can back up your statements with facts, then postRead More legitimate references.

Yep, B Ulm.... I was there all day. People were working really hard from early a.m. to clean upRead More time. I noticed plenty of smiles and laughter, some quick no-nonsense problem solving, and some really rather creative ways to tackle the project at hand. It was smaller scale, there was no carnival (Did the Tilt a Whirl with dried puke REALLY mean that much to you folks?!) Look, the pancakes tasty, kids cute, dunk booth busy. These people did their best, and this is coming from me, an admitted Mr.grumpy pants. Danielle, since you seem keen on helping out per your post, and would volunteer if you knew where to go to do so, please sign up to be the dunkee next year. We'd love to have ya...I might be old but I have one helluva fast ball.

Wow - what an insulting, non-constructive post. You live in a city whose citizens banded together toRead More tax themselves to save it Foothill wilderness, raised funds to renovate its schools and to build a state of the art library. The fact that one one single event in the year didn't go the way you wanted made you ashamed to be a Monrovian suggests you need to seriously rethink your priorities in life. As the first response said, quit complaining and get involved. Its not very hard in this city to find out how to volunteer if you had given it a slight effort. And the volunteer groups like the one that put the event together are starving for help since tearing people down is a lot more popular these days than putting in hard work. You are the one who should be ashamed.

I am gonna do my own thing, invite everyone to have a parade on Monrovia Day next year... RememberRead More the Doo Dah parade? Assemble old folks in black socks and hedge clippers!

Who was that face painter? She was really good with the kids, even the wiggly ones. She also wasRead More giving away little handmaid mermaids. Some of the stuff at the celebration was cool. I think next year the city council should be the dunkees for the dunk booth.

Yeah, it's cute...... For now......
Ellen Zunino May 17, 2013 at 01:02 pm
Cool presentation. Many of us have had our own encounters and all of us have seen numerous photosRead More and videos so your creative approach freshened it up for us.

A California city will never prevail in a lawsuit against the STATE. All CA. cities must merge toRead More sue in mass under Federal RICO laws while we still have Federal laws. Filing alone at the State level is useless. Wake up people.
