Redding, California- On Wednesday, August 7th, Child and Family Services along with Redding Police Officers and a Shasta Interagency Narcotics Task Force (SINTF) Agent were conducting a welfare check on two juveniles living in a home in the 2900 block of Polk Street in Redding, California.
The welfare check led to the discovery of Methamphetamine and Heroin use in the home in the presence of the children, resulting in the children being taken into protective custody.
An Occupant of the home, 35-year old David Capelli was identified by Officers as being a suspect in a child endangerment investigation according to an article by KRCR NEWS.
A Further search of Capelli’s Criminal history revealed that he had a non-extraditable 2005 Felony Arrest Warrant out of Skagit County Washington for 3rd Degree rape of a child and 3rd Degree child molestation.
