Salinas, California resident Jose Valesco had a tough day last Friday.
Police initially responded to North Main Street and Bernal Dr. after receiving complaints about a man charging in and out of the street, screaming at motorists, and leaping onto cars. By the time officers arrived at the scene, the suspect — Jose Valesco — had apparently pinned his mother to the pavement in the northbound lane after she attempted to dissuade him from running into oncoming traffic.
