K9 Helps Officers Arrest Wanted Felon After Standoff

Two people wanted by Redding Police were intercepted when they tried to flee. Saturday afternoon officers arrived at the Peterson Lane home of 33-year-old Derrick Skyler Steele and 32-year-old Kaula Louise Reed. Both are on probation and had multiple warrants. Reed was caught after leaving by a rear window. Steele started out the same window but saw police and went back inside. He refused to surrender despite commands by officers over a PA system. After about 40 minutes a pepper spray canister was lobbed inside but Steele still didn’t give up so officers forced the door open and took him into custody with the help of Otto the K9.
