On May 17, 2026, at approximately 1:37 AM, officers responded to the area of E. 2nd St. and S. Reservoir St. regarding a reported stabbing. Upon arrival, officers located a 35-year-old male suffering from a stab wound. The victim was transported to a local hospital, where he was later pronounced deceased.

Due to the nature of this incident, investigators from the Pomona Police Department’s Major Crimes Unit responded to the scene and began an extensive investigation. During the course of their investigation, they identified the suspect as 41-year-old Matthew Martinez of Diamond Bar

On June 4, officers located Martinez at his residence where he was taken into custody without incident.
