A woman was shot and wounded at Santa Ana’s Guest Inn & Quality Suites this morning

Guest Inn and Quality Suites

Do you remember when the Guest Inn and Quality Suites, located at 2151 E. First St., was converted into the first large-scale permanent supportive housing project in Santa Ana for the homeless, last year? Well they are in the news again as the SAPD is now investigating a shooting that occurred there early this morning in which a woman was wounded, according to the O.C. Register.

When SAPD police officers arrived at the Guest Inn, after getting a phone call about a woman being shot, they found a woman with what looked like one gunshot wound to her upper torso, according to the SAPD.

The victim was taken to a local hospital but of course she is refusing to cooperate with the police.

The SAPD did not release the victim’s name nor did they clarify her medical condition. There are no reports about a suspect. We don’t know if this was gang-related. And obviously no arrests have been made.

This incident happened in Santa Ana’s Ward 1, which is represented by Councilman Vince Sarmiento.

  • Community Development Partners had many issues with their Senior Development in Morgan Hill due to too many homeless. They don't have the experience to oversee these properties. This will be another slum championed by Sarmiento who is turning E. First Street into Santa Ana's new ghetto. Just wait till that monster 1,000 unit project opens up and then AMCAL's development. Once again, Santa Ana creating concentration of poverty which will strain services and ruin the neighborhood further. But as long as Sarmiento gets his election check from the developers he doesn't care.
