2 suspects linked to “violent” SJ show arrested

(KRON) — Two suspects were arrested in connection with a weekend spectacle that left several people injured in San Jose on Saturday, San Jose police said.

Police identified and arrested 22-year-old Tyler Durbin and 26-year-old Gabe Durbin on Wednesday. Police described the two men as assaulting a police officer and committing “violent vandalism” on an SJPD patrol car that police previously described as “severely damaged.”


Police have not said whether the two men are related.

Both suspects have since been taken into custody in the city of San Juan Bautista, where police said both men were booked into Santa Clara County Jail on charges of “inciting a riot, assaulting a law enforcement officer peace and crime of vandalism”.

This is the third arrest in connection with Saturday's show. On Monday, SJPD arrested Aidan Rheault, 24, who they described as “the person responsible for striking a spectator with his vehicle while participating in a dangerous performance.”

In addition to the arrests, an SJPD officer was also injured while trying to help someone else who was injured at the show, which Acting Police Chief Paul Joseph called “truly deplorable!” This conduct is unacceptable and will not be tolerated in our city.

SJPD said detectives continue to investigate the incident and that there is “more to come.”
