LAKEPORT, Calif. – The Lakeport Police Department is seeking leads in an effort to identify individuals involved in an early Saturday morning fight that left two people with life-threatening injuries.

So far, police have arrested one man, Enrique Ivan Tovar, 27, of Lakeport, in connection to the incident, according to a report from Chief Brad Rasmussen.

At approximately 1:42 a.m. Saturday, Lakeport Police Department officers, assisted by Lake County Sheriff’s deputies, were dispatched to Logan’s Bar in downtown Lakeport to investigate a fight involving upwards of 15 persons, Rasmussen said.

Rasmussen said the first two arriving Lakeport Police officers saw two known subjects, Enrique Tovar and Tedoulo Francisco Tovar Jr., 29, also of Lakeport, who appeared to be instigators in the fight.

As these two subjects were being arrested, all other involved parties fled the scene, Rasmussen said.
 
Officers took the two men to the Lake County Jail to be booked on misdemeanor disturbance charges. It was then determined that Tedoulo Tovar was in need of medical treatment and he was transported to a local hospital. Due to his need for medical care he was later released from custody, according to Rasmussen’s report.

While officers were at the hospital, a 32-year-old male checked himself into the emergency room with stab wounds and advised that he was injured during the fight at Logan’s. Rasmussen said the man later was transferred to an out-of-county hospital for treatment.
 
At approximately 4:15 a.m., Lakeport Police Sgt. Joe Eastham went back to the area of Logan’s and started following blood trails that led him several blocks away, Rasmussen said.

Eastham continued checking the area and heard the sounds of a person in distress. He followed the sounds and located a 29-year-old male inside an overturned trash container. The victim was bleeding profusely and had serious stab wounds, according to Rasmussen.

Fire/medical units were called and the victim was later transferred to Santa Rosa Memorial Hospital for treatment. Rasmussen said Det. Dale Stoebe was dispatched to Santa Rosa to conduct followup.

Rasmussen said Eastham’s actions likely saved this stabbing victim’s life.
 
Enrique Tovar has been booked on additional charges of two counts of attempted murder and is being held on bond of $200,000, Rasmussen said.

Also arrested in this incident were Ivanna Allison Tovar, 23, of Lakeport on charges of battery and public intoxication and Daniel Perez, 31, of Point Arena, on charges of public intoxication and resisting arrest, according to Rasmussen.
 
Rasmussen said Saturday afternoon that Det. Stoebe is continuing to lead the investigation and being assisted by numerous other officers.
 
Police want to talk to anyone who may have any information on this incident as they know numerous other subjects may be involved, Rasmussen said.
