Police: Ex-deputy stabbed son, then fled before fatal shooting in Lodi

An 11-year-old boy was fatally stabbed inside his Elk Grove home after his mother, watching security cameras from work, saw the attack and called police. Officers found the child with multiple stab wounds; he later died at the hospital. His 6-year-old sister was unharmed. Police identified the suspect as 40-year-old Marvin Morales, a former Sacramento County Sheriff’s deputy previously fired after a fentanyl overdose at work. Morales fled the scene, triggering an I-5 pursuit that ended near Highway 12 in Lodi, where officers opened fire. He died at the hospital. The Elk Grove neighborhood known for its calm streets is now grappling with the violent loss, while multiple agencies continue investigating the homicide and the officer-involved shooting.
