Pubdate: Fri, 15 May 1998 Source: San Francisco Examiner (CA) Contact: Website: http://www.examiner.com/ Author: Jim Herron Zamora, Eric Brazil and Tyche Hendricks COP SHOT IN PURSUIT OF DRUG SUSPECTS Police sought a fugitive Friday in a bizarre chain of events that included a 17-year-old girl fatally shot by cops during a busted stakeout, a San Francisco police officer shot by another cop, a carjacking, a car wreck and several car chases and arrests. Among those arrested was drug suspect Raymondo Cox, 21. Cox had fled the stakeout Wednesday with an alleged accomplice and the girl, Sheila Patricia Detoy, who was killed, police said, by a shot fired by officers at the fleeing car. The alleged accomplice, Michael Negron, was still at large Friday after smashing his uncle's BMW into a Daly City police motorcycle, San Francisco police said. Cox was in San Francisco County Jail on charges relating to the drug stakeout and resisting arrest. Cox was the target of the initial stakeout that started the hectic chain of events; an FBI-SFPD fugitive team sought to arrest him for failing to appear in court on a series of charges involving possession and sale of crack cocaine. The shooting of one officer by another occurred Thursday night in Visitacion Valley as police were trying to arrest two other men who became involved in the case. The mayhem started Wednesday morning when police tried to arrest Cox at an apartment complex near Lake Merced. In that incident, police said Negron and Cox tried to flee police and FBI agents in a gray Mustang. Detoy was in a passenger seat. Officers Gregory Breslin and Michael Moran fired four rounds as driver Negron accelerated back toward the police, who said they feared they would be run over, according to police reports. Detoy was killed by a bullet in the left ear. Police said the bullet entered through the open driver's side window. "There is no evidence that a bullet was fired from the inside of the vehicle," said Homicide Lt. David Robinson. Negron and Cox sped away but the car crashed head-on into another car on nearby Sloat Boulevard, police said. The two jumped out and carjacked 68-year-old retiree Zayed Zawaydeh's 1987 Toyota Camry, police said. Zawaydeh's car was recovered Thursday afternoon by police at the Tanforan shopping center in San Bruno, Robinson said. On Thursday, investigators who asked not to be named said "we got lucky" with a tip that located Cox and Negron, who also goes by the name Michael Johnson, in the Visitacion Valley area. The tipster told police that Cox was spotted outside a home in the Sunnydale projects Wednesday night, investigators said. Police interviewed a woman who lived there and she admitted her husband was friendly with Cox but had not seen the fugitive that day. She said her husband could be found at another friend's home a few blocks away. Just as police arrived there and began to set up surveillance, they spotted Cox, Negron and two unidentified young men coming out of the house. The two unidentified men got into the front cab of a Toyota pickup, police said. Cox and Negron climbed into the back, which was covered by an opaque camper shell. The truck sped away -- with officers in pursuit -- and blew past two Daly City motorcycle police officers, who were doing traffic enforcement at the county line, police said. The pickup went onto northbound Highway 101 near Candlestick Point, wound in and out of traffic at high speeds, then exited at Bayshore Boulevard, police said. The truck sped up Cortland Avenue at about 60 mph into Bernal Heights. The four suspects jumped out of the Toyota on Powhatan Avenue, running in different directions, police said. Police Inspector Robert McMillan and two other officers caught Cox as he tried to run down a hill where Powhatan comes into the freeway. Meanwhile, Daly City Officer Richard Woodworth followed Negron to a relative's house on Nebraska Street. There, Negron climbed into his uncle's green 1992 BMW 525i, which was parked on the street, police said. Woodworth ordered Negron to stop and pulled his motorcycle in the BMW's path, police said. Negron allegedly backed over the motorcycle, just missing the officer, and sped away. Police have issued an all-points bulletin for the BMW with the California license number 3XJD434. The man alleged to be driving the pickup was arrested later at his Daly City home, said Lt. Michael Scott of the Daly City police. Joseph Solis, 21, was caught by police as he tried to climb over his back fence at 268 Westlake Ave. at 8:12 p.m., police said. Solis was booked late Thursday by San Francisco police on charges of reckless driving and trying to evade police. At 9:30 p.m., Inspector McMillan and three other officers surrounded a house on Campbell Street in Visitacion Valley where they hoped to find Negron or clues to his whereabouts, according to Robinson. Sgt. Dan Greely intercepted two men fleeing out the back door. As they tried to hop a fence, Robinson said, Greely ordered the men to stop, then fired two shots when he thought he saw one carrying a weapon. Neither of the fleeing men was hurt, but McMillan was hit in the upper thigh. McMillan was taken to San Francisco General Hospital where he remained in serious but stable condition Friday. One of the men was apprehended and the other turned himself in shortly after, Robinson said. The two men's names were not immediately available, nor were the charges they were arrested on. "It's a long saga that started yesterday noontime and hasn't stopped," said Daly City's Lt. Scott after Thursday night's arrests. "It's unbelievable." ©1998 San Francisco Examiner - --- Checked-by: Melodi Cornett
