CALIFORNIA CITY POLICE DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM TO: Ofc. Jesus Flores Dispatcher R. Wofford FROM: Sgt. M. Rivera DATE: 04/29/2026 RE: Commendation for Exemplary Performance – CR26-0354 On Wednesday, April 29 th , 2026 at 0047 hours, CCPD Dispatch received a report of a Parental Abduction/Kidnapping in the 8300 block of Redwood Av. The reporting party and father of the 3-year- old child reported that the mother of the child had absconded from her supervised visit and took the child against Court Ordered Visitation terms and an active Criminal Protection Order. The suspect took the child and the father’s vehicle and would not disclose her location or destination to the father. Officer Jesus Flores conducted a thorough investigation, conducting multiple interviews, follow ups and ascertaining contact information for the suspect. He relayed cell phone numbers and other information to Dispatcher Wofford and she was able to disseminate the information throughout the state. The two coordinated with Wireless companies, the father, witnesses and multiple outside agencies attempting to track the suspect. With the information provided Dispatcher Wofford was able track the suspect to the Riverside Area. Officer Flores coordinated search efforts with Riverside Police Department, Riverside County Sheriff’s Department, Rialto Police Department and Colton Police Department to cast a wide search net over the Inland Empire area. With the assistance of the Inland Empire agencies the suspect was located in the City of Colton CA. The child was found safe and the suspect was taken into custody without incident less than 4 hours after the initial report. Officer Flores transported the father to Colton PD and reunited him with the child. Officer Jesus Flores and Dispatcher Wofford are commended for their dedication to duty, work ethic and outside the box thinking. No doubt their efforts are responsible for safely returning a child that was in grave danger. Sgt. M. Rivera9

CALIFORNIA CITY POLICE DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM TO: Acting Chief of Police Lt. Shannon Hayes CC: Sgt. Sal Stewart FROM: Sgt. Miguel Rivera DATE: 06/08/2026 RE: Commendation – Officer Joshua Flores / Incident #2606070005, #2606060013 / CKWF On 06/06/2026 at 0728 hours Officer Joshua Flores was dispatched to check the welfare of a 73-year-old male in the 8500 block of Hickory Dr. The caller was the son of the subject, and he had not heard from him since Thursday 06/04/26. Officer Flores initially responded and checked the exterior of the home. He did not find any signs of distress on the initial call. There was no mail piled up, no foul odors or gathering of flies within the window seals. He cleared the call and was subsequently recontacted by the son at 1040 hours. Officer Flores re-responded. He continued to inspect the home, and this time was able to make contact with a neighbor that had stated they thought they heard the subject inside the previous day. Officer Flores removed fence boards to access the rear yard. He continued to inspect and look for signs of distress or life. He described “having a feeling” that the subject was in need of help but could not find any exigency to force entry. Officer Flores trusted his instincts and remained on scene. He worked with a neighbor and they were able to force entry into the home while mitigating Department liability. Once inside Officer Flores heard the faint moans of a male in distress that would not have been audible outside the home. He located the subject down, wedged in between the toilet and vanity in the bathroom. The subject had suffered a medical emergency and had been down for some time. Officer Flores quickly summoned medical aid and assisted Hall Paramedics in extracting the subject from the bathroom. He was alive, but appeared to be suffering from stroke-like symptoms and dehydration. He was transported to AV hospital for treatment. It is suspected he had been down since Thursday night.10

Officer Flores is commended for his diligence, outside the box thinking and for trusting his instincts. Most of all he is commended for not walking away when he could have. For staying on scene, working the problem and taking the extra time and effort to help a California City Resident. Had they not forced entry when they did, the result could have been far more grave. Officer Flores no doubt assisted in saving the life of a citizen. Respectfully submitted, Sgt. Miguel Rivera #53342 This commendation to be retained in Officer Flores’ personnel file. Ofc. Joshua Flores #53324 __________________________________11
