Police say 26-year-old Blake Mohs was a son, a brother, an Eagle Scout and a fiancé. He was set to get married in August at a Boy Scout campground in Sonoma County, according to the couple's wedding website.
That's when they took the suspect into custody as well as a 31-year-old man, who was driving the getaway car."We lost a valuable member of our community, a person who served to protect his fellow coworkers and customers and was a valuable partner with law enforcement," Silacci said.
"Blake was a real good person, I mean, he was like your go-to friend, like 'Hey Blake you want to go hang out? Yeah sure! Blake, you want to go grab a beer? Yeah,'" David, a family friend said.David, a family friend who went to school with Mohs and still lives next door to his parents had followed this shooting since it happened Tuesday but was shocked Wednesday morning to find out the victim was Blake.
Home Depot released a statement Tuesday night saying, "We're heartbroken over this senseless tragedy. Blake was our associate and friend, and our hearts go out to his family and everyone who knew and loved him."
