Background
Santa Cruz Police had already arrested Moses Dollar, 27, after he was captured in the Los Angeles area on Sep. 18. He was booked into Santa Cruz County Jail and charged with attempted murder. The shooting erupted following a beach concert at the popular Crow’s Nest restaurant near the mouth of the harbor.
He is being held without bail, jail records show.
Porter has been identified by investigators as the female suspect in the case and a warrant had been issued for her arrest.
Initial reports were of two men shot, with one suffering up to six gunshots to the chest.
Witnesses said that after a brief altercation in the Crow’s Nest parking lot, a male in his early 20s opened fire on two men and fled the scene in a black Dodge Charger. The suspect was wearing a red puffy jacket and was accompanied by a female of indeterminate age.
