Tuolumne County Sheriff Dept press release re: search warrant



      
       On Friday afternoon the Sheriff’s Office received information from Modesto P. D. regarding a wanted felon known to carry firearms and body armor (name withheld) in a room at Rosalinda’s Gentlemen’s Club. The club was put under surveillance until Swat teams could form a perimeter. Continual announcements to surrender were given over a loud speaker for several hours without results. Tear gas was used multiple times in the room where the suspect was thought to be, also without results. A robot with a camera was put into the room but did not locate the suspect. An entry team was sent in and determined the suspect was no longer in the area. 29 year old Parolee at Large, Tanisha Flaherty of Modesto, who was traveling with the suspect, was taken into custody. Another Parolee, 37 year old Stephen Frederick of Oakdale, was taken into custody for a parole violation. A third arrest was made on 28 year old Nicolet Schmidt, who was charged with Carrying a Concealed Firearm. The original suspect in this case is still being sought.
