Palomares Canyon Homeowner Shoots at Fleeing Suspects

A homeowner on Palomares Canyon Road interrupted an auto burglary and then shot at the suspects car as they fled, striking the rear window.  One suspect was left at the scene, a small skinny female, who "took off into the hills".  An observant sheriff's deputy who was cruising along Niles Canyon Road near Sunol picked up the suspect vehicle west of Palomares Canyon Road.  Fremont Police were notified to assist and numerous cars could be heard rolling code 3 down Mission Blvd.  The deputy continued to follow the suspect vehicle as it turned north on Mission Blvd around 11:32 this morning.  FPD officers caught up with the pair as they approached Decoto Road in Union City.  After making the turn on to westbound Decoto, the deputy along with five Fremont officers "lit" up the car and it yielded.  In short order a male and female were detained.  The status of the female suspect left at the scene is unknown at this time, but a large search party was forming in the noon hour.

Update:  They now believe there is no outstanding suspect.  The woman in the passenger seat matches the description of the one that fled.  I guess the driver picked her up shortly after leaving and being shot at.  Also, deputies found a bullet hole in the passenger seat of the suspect vehicle, but the woman was not hit.
