Suspect in Downtown Petaluma Stabbing Is Arrested

PETALUMA - A suspect in a stabbing in downtown Petaluma last month was arrested after he contacted police, a Petaluma police sergeant said.

Ryan Jerry Gray, 23, of Berkeley, confirmed his involvement in the Feb. 13 stabbing on Water Street, Sgt. Ed Crosby said.

Gray appeared in Sonoma County Superior Court Wednesday morning and posted $60,000 bail, Crosby said.

His arraignment for assault with a deadly weapon is April 4, Crosby said.

A 20-year-old Santa Rosa man was with two friends from Petaluma when he was stabbed around 2 a.m. during an altercation involving two other men.

After being stabbed, the victim walked from the scene up Main Street toward Petaluma Boulevard North, where police say he collapsed and was found.
