For more than a week, dozens of Kern County law enforcement officers scoured the wilderness near Lake Isabella looking for a gunman who killed one man and wounded two sheriff’s deputies in separate incidents.
They described Benjamin Peter Ashley, 34, as a homeless man with an extensive criminal background. Local schools were closed and residents were told to stay inside and lock their doors.
On Saturday, two deputies confronted Ashley about 5:30 p.m. near a mini-mart on U.S. 395 after receiving a tip from the sister of the store’s clerk, who recognized Ashley’s distinctive green eyes, Sheriff Donny Youngblood said.
