Santa Rosa Man Arrested for Unprovoked Hammer, Knife Attack on Wheelchair-Bound Victim

News summary

An 18-year-old man named Ricky Carver was arrested in Santa Rosa after allegedly attacking a 52-year-old homeless man in a wheelchair with a hammer and pocketknife near a bus stop. The unprovoked assault involved Carver aggressively pushing over the victim's wheelchair before striking and slashing him multiple times, resulting in significant injuries that required hospitalization. Witnesses provided descriptions that led police to locate Carver about a mile from the scene, where he was found with the hammer and pocketknife in his possession. Carver was also linked to an earlier incident that day involving the brandishing of a hammer at employees of a downtown retail store, and additional charges related to that incident are pending. He was booked into Sonoma County Jail on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon, with a $200,000 bail enhancement authorized due to the violent and unprovoked nature of the attack. Carver remains in custody awaiting further court proceedings.
