A man whom park police stumbled upon making a drug deal inside a Riverside park attempted to ram two officers with his car before firing a gun, police said.

A Norco man who tried to ram his car into the vehicle of two Riverside park rangers and fired a gun after being spotted making a drug deal has been arrested, police said.

The officers witnessed a brief interaction between the two vehicles, which then began to leave the lot when they saw the patrol specialists, according to police.“As both cars were leaving the parking lot, one of the involved vehicles accelerated toward the [police truck] in an attempt to ram or strike them, but fortunately they were able to avoid being hit,” the department said in a press release Monday.

Police used search warrants that looked into social media accounts to identify the driver of the car that attempted to ram the police specialists as Juan Marcos Jimenez, 19, who had been arrested in August on narcotics and assault weapons possession charges, police said. There was also a boy in the car, though police said he was not believed to be responsible for the shooting.

Inside Jimenez’s car, police said they found 9 ounces of what’s suspected to be fentanyl, 120 ounces of marijuana, 19 ounces of Psilocybin mushrooms, hundreds of packages of marijuana and mushroom candy, a handgun, ammunition and cash.
