Details:
On March 21, 2020, at 8:35 PM, La Quinta deputies responded to a domestic violence incident that occurred in the 60100 block of Angora Court, in the city of La Quinta. The investigation revealed the suspect, Marco Collins, 55-years-old of La Quinta assaulted the victim during an argument. The victim fled the residence and ran to a neighboring residence to call 911. The victim was treated for injuries sustained during the assault on-scene by medics. An Emergency Protective Order was authored and granted. Deputies were unable to take Collins into custody, so the investigation continued.

During the arrest, a loaded un-registered handgun was located in Collin’s vehicle. During a search of the residence an un-registered assault rifle was also located.
