MODESTO, Calif. — A man police believe has been deported to Mexico up to eight times was arrested Tuesday evening in Modesto after he allegedly pointed a gun at the house of his ex-girlfriend.
Julian Virgen Lopez, 31, was arrested in the 100 block of La Loma Avenue after police found a loaded firearm in the car he was driving, according to Sgt. Brian Findlen of the Modesto Police Department.
Lopez was stopped after police received a call at 7:30 p.m. that a man was pointing a gun at the woman’s home in the 100 block of Phoenix Avenue.
He was booked into the Stanislaus County Jail on suspicion of being felon possessing a firearm, carrying a concealed weapon, carrying a loaded firearm and in being possession of ammunition.
