On November 19, 2021, Moorpark Deputies responded to the 100 block of Moonsong Court reference a suspect, Shaka Watkins, trying to light the residence on fire. Watkins was confronted by the adult male victim and a fight ensued in the middle of the street. The adult male victim was knocked to the ground by Watkins and ultimately suffered injuries requiring treatment at a local hospital.
Watkins was detained at the scene and transported to the Moorpark Police Station. During the course of the investigation, it was determined Watkins poured a significant amount of gasoline on the front door and garage door of the residence along with a vehicle associated with the residence. Detectives with the East County Major Crimes Unit, Moorpark Detectives, and Ventura County Arson Investigators arrived to assist in the investigation.
