At 2:00 p.m., the Davis Police Department held a press conference to share updates about the investigation into two homicides and one stabbing incident that left a victim in critical condition and discuss the recent person of interest, who they announced as a suspect at the press conference, who had been detained.​

​

The suspect, 21-year-old Carlos Dominguez, has been arrested on two counts of homicide and one count of attempted murder. He was a student at UC Davis until last week when he was “separated for academic reasons,” according to a release from the university. The suspect is now at the Yolo County jail and final charges will be determined in the coming days.​

​

Dominguez was detained Wednesday afternoon around 4:30 p.m. after being stopped by patrol officers responding to around 15 call-in tips from community members who spotted him on the corner of Colby Drive and Pine Lane, a block from Sycamore Park. Dominguez was in possession of a large hunting-style knife in a backpack at the time and had injuries on his hands and wrists, according to Police Chief Darren Prytel.​

21, I just saw that. Wow.

There was a hospital attack the other day, I think the shooter was 24, and retired after five years in the Coast Guard.

That story hadn't even crossed my radar. There are just so many of these going on.

Thank goodness they caught him! We have a good friend who works on the campus and were worried about him and everyone else in the Davis community.

So glad he was caught. I lived in Davis for a year. That is so crazy.
