From Castaic, California<\/a>; <\/p>\n

Johnny Velasquez, a Northridge resident, pleaded no contest \u2013 treated as a guilty plea \u2013 to vandalism over $400 in damage and a misdemeanor charge for trespassing by entry or occupying.<\/p>\n

In return for the no contest plea, prosecutors agreed to drop the original charge of first degree burglary with a person present.<\/p>\n

Velasquez pleaded on May 23, 2018 and will receive his sentence May 23, 2019, exactly a year later.<\/p>\n

Around 2 a.m. on June 26, 2017, a woman noticed Velasquez trying to force entry into her home on the 36000 block of Ridge Route Road. Once he forced his way inside, the woman fled her house and then called 911 to report the break in, sheriff\u2019s officials said at the time.<\/p>\n

But after making the call, she saw Velasquez leave her home.<\/p>\n

Thinking she was safe, the woman returned to the house and barricaded the front door. Velasquez then broke into the home a second time using a rear entrance, according to officials.<\/p>\n

This time around, however, the woman armed herself with a handgun. After a short confrontation with Velasquez, the homeowner fired her gun, hitting him in the chest.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Long story short … the cop busts out his taser to take down the guy. Meanwhile, his female friend tries to make a clean escape by running into the stockroom and climbing through the ceiling — y’know, ‘Mission: Impossible’ style. She almost made it. Almost.<\/p>\n

This entire caper was captured by the store’s surveillance cameras. Thank God.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
