Thousand Oaks man sought in killing, man ID'd in fatal crash, more news
Authorities are searching for a 41-year-old Thousand Oaks man believed to be involved in a fatal stabbing July 10 in Thousand Oaks. The Ventura County Sheriff's Office said their investigation led them to Miguel Angel Reyes Cano who allegedly killed a 36-year-old Simi Valley man. Cano was seen leaving the scene of the stabbing with a knife, and he left in a blue 2002 Dodge truck with a California license plate of 7K43579, sheriff's officials said in a news release. Cano is suspected in the crime in the 2900 Block of Crescent Way around 8:30 p.m. July 10 when deputies with the Thousand Oaks station were called there on a report of a stabbing. They arrived to find the Simi Valley man with stab wounds. The victim was transported to Los Robles Regional Medical Center where he was pronounced dead. Sheriff's officials said Cano and the victim knew each other. Based on photos from the sheriff's office, Cano has a shaved head, dark hair and a sprawling dragon-like tattoo on his right forearm. Anyone with information on Cano or the stabbing is asked to contact Detective Katie Torres at 805-384-4740. An Oxnard man has been sentenced to 50 years to life in prison after a jury found him guilty of six felony counts of child molestation. On July 10, Judge David Worley imposed the sentence on 29-year-old John Edward Kalil. The defendant asked for a new trial, but Worley denied the request, according to the court docket for the case. The jury also found true the special allegations that there was more than one victim under age 14 and that Kalil committed substantial sexual conduct, the Ventura County District Attorney's Office said in a news release. Between 2016 and 2020, Kalil molested two children under age 14, the DA's office said. He would have been in his early to mid-20s at the time, based on his birth date. Both individuals reported the allegations after the the arrest of another family member who was also allegedly molesting them, the DA's office said. Kalil allegedly gained access to them through a familial relationship. The defendant must register as a sex offender, according to the court docket. He was credited with almost three years off his sentence for time served and the sentence carries the possibility of parole. Authorities identified a man killed in a single-vehicle crash in Camarillo early July 7. John Duarte Vargas, 18, of Oxnard died of blunt force thoracic injuries, according to the Ventura County Medical Examiner's Office. His death was deemed an accident. Vargas had allegedly been driving in excess of 120 mph on Highway 101 in Camarillo near the Carmen Drive exit when a Ventura County Sheriff's sergeant spotted the car. The sergeant followed but could not catch up with it. The car veered across lanes and off the highway at Central Avenue. The sheriff's sergeant followed but lost sight of the vehicle from the highway exit. When the sergeant circled back toward the highway, the car was seen down an embankment, between the off-ramp and the Fairfield Inn & Suites. Separately, the California Highway Patrol picked up a cell phone alert indicating a crash. CHP arrived to find the sergeant and other Camarillo deputies and the group went down the embankment where they found Vargas unconscious. Officers provided medical aid, and the driver was transported to a hospital where he died. Earlier reports incorrectly said he was from Ventura. The passenger, a 17-year-old male from Oxnard, allegedly fled the site, but was later found by sheriff's deputies, CHP said. A convenience store clerk called sheriff's dispatch about a youth at the business who was out of breath and had a severe cut to his hand. Deputies went to the store and determined the juvenile was a passenger, sheriff's officials said. The teen was taken to a hospital and later released. It was not clear if he had been arrested, the CHP said. The CHP is handling the crash investigation. The Santa Paula Police Department is seeking the public's help in finding additional information in the shooting death of a Santa Paula store clerk in December. Investigators have requested surveillance footage of the surrounding area or any witnesses nearby before, during or after the Dec.11 shooting to come forward, according to a Santa Paula Police Department news release. Police Chief Don Aguilar said officers need help to "put the pieces together on this case." Georges Touma, 50, of Ventura was shot while working at Thomas 99 Cent Plus Store around 6 p.m. Dec. 11, police previously said. Touma was transported to a nearby hospital in critical condition and succumbed to his injuries Dec. 21, police said at the time. Information can be submitted to Detective Sgt. Dan Potter at 805-826-6093. The Ojai Valley received new U.S. Postal mailboxes in hopes of deterring increased mail theft since March. Investigators with the Ventura County Sheriff's Office noted more than five times the usual amount of thefts over the last six months, said sheriff's Detective Joseph Sharif in a news release. The sheriff's office is contracted to provide police services to the Ojai Valley. The mail thieves mainly targeted letters with checks in them, altered them and cashed them digitally or at a check-cashing store, Sharif said. The upgraded mailboxes are located 211 E. Matilija St. and 1215 Maricopa Highway in Ojai and 360 N. Ventura Ave. in Oak View, sheriff's officials said. While the new boxes are meant to deter would-be mail thieves, the sheriff's office also recommended taking precautions to protect mail such as: Not mailing cash or personal checks, only money orders. Not leaving sensitive documents in mailboxes, instead personally delivering them to a local post office. Depositing mail as close to the mailbox pick up time as possible Paying bills online. Choosing certified mail with return receipts for larger check amounts. The agency has also encouraged residents to avoid leaving mail out overnight, remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity around postboxes to the Ojai Police Department at 805-646-1414.

Former child star Tina Majorino spotted on rare outing in LA
An iconic child star who shared the screen with Kevin Costner in 1995's flop Waterworld was spotted out on a rare outing in Los Angeles this week. Tina Majorino, now 40, looked casual in a black vest top and shorts as she strolled around Thousand Oaks - 30 years after her turn as Enola in the post-apocalyptic blockbuster. Majorino, who is also known for her roles in Napoleon Dynamite and Grey's Anatomy completed her ensemble with a baseball cap and sneakers. As well as Waterworld, Majorino starred in a string of films in the 1990s including Andre, When A Man Loves A Woman, and Corrina, Corrina. While the 1995 film was a box office disappointment, the actress previously said she has nothing but fond memories of working with Costner. She said: 'No matter how crazy everything off the set became, he showed up to work every day just wanting to do the best work possible.' Majorino continued: 'He loves doing this just for the sake of doing it, and every time [that I've collaborated with someone] who has had that mentality, it's always been a fulfilling experience.' She portrayed Deb in 2004 cult classic Napoleon Dynamite alongside Jon Heder as the titular character and Efren Ramirez as Pedro Sanchez - which marked her return to acting after a five year hiatus. In a 2014 interview the former child star said: 'I read Napoleon Dynamite and instantly I was like, 'I don't even care if I get it, I have to audition for this movie! 'I think I was 17 – it was the first script that I read coming out of my sabbatical – and I was like, "this is hilarious."' She added: 'That film was a huge lesson for me in following my gut. It was pure magic and 100% reignited my love of filmmaking.' Napoleon Dynamite tells the story of an awkward and alienated teenager who helps his new friend Pedro win the class presidency at their high school in Preston, Idaho. The film, co-written by Jared and his wife Jerusha, was shot in just 22 days on a production budget of $400,000, before grossing over $46million worldwide and becoming a cult classic. Napoleon Dynamite premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in January 2004 and was bought by Fox Searchlight Pictures, which joined forces with MTV and Paramount Pictures to distribute the film. The film enjoyed a limited release that June, before its widespread release in August. Majorino's television credits include Grey's Anatomy, Scorpion, True Blood, Big Love, Bones, Veronica Mars, and Legends.
