Victim stabbed by gang members in fast food drive-thru, police report
Tyler McKinney
Daniel Flores of Paso Robles
On Friday at about 10:18 p.m., Paso Robles Police Officers report they were dispatched to the 100 block of Niblick Rd. for a stabbing that had just occurred. Upon arrival it was discovered that all of the involved parties were no longer at the scene. The victim of the assault, a 31-year-old Paso Robles resident, returned to the scene and contacted officers identifying himself as the victim of the stabbing, according to a police report.
He had sustained an apparent knife wound to his forearm that required sutures. The victim described being in the drive-thru of a fast food restaurant, when he was confronted by two suspects. The suspects suddenly struck the victim while he was sitting in his
car, and at some point stabbed the victim, the report says. The victim was treated and released for his injuries at Twin Cities Community Hospital.
The police department’s Special Enforcement Team assumed the case, and was able to identify two suspects based on witness and victim statements. Those two suspects were contacted at a residence in the 400 block of Helen St. in Paso Robles. The two were determined to be responsible for the assault and stabbing and were subsequently taken into custody. The knife used in the assault was also recovered.
This investigation is currently still under active investigation, but it has been determined that the incident was gang related. The County Gang Task Force was notified of this incident and are assisting with the investigation. The following suspects were taken into custody:
• Daniel Flores (DOB 10-06-94) of Paso Robles – Assault with a deadly weapon, a felony, criminal conspiracy, a felony, criminal street gang participation enhancement, a felony.
• Tyler Dwayne McKinney (DOB 05-13-96) of Atascadero – Assault with a deadly weapon, a felony, criminal conspiracy, a felony, criminal street gang participation enhancement, a felony.

Nathaniel is friends with that dude? And what's up with the balding 18 year old. Yikes.
Paso just needs a great flood and to start over.
Good old Paso Robles tweakers. No there isn't a camera in a drive thru. Bang tuff bruh..in prison. To bad where there going they just train them to get out and do the same things .
And they ain't tweakers thy just some savages
my mother is struggling really hard at the terrible decision my brother made but please dont make my family suffer anymore, they are going through enough, we dont need your hateful comments making it harder for us to move on from this tragic event
Never heard of this either. That should have made the news especially since it involves a business , hope the man is ok
Gabriel, my family is also struggling, thank you very much. Your point?
Gabriel, my family is also struggling, thank you very much. Your point?
And dear dear Gabriel, what about sympothy for my brother who was nearly beaten to death by gang activity? Why should I have sympathy for an ignorant 19 year old who stabbed someone for no reason?
I would make my same comments to anyone's face. Truth hurts.
Gabriel, stop wasting your time here defending the undefendable. If you and your family are suffering so much, how about you spend your time on the streets making sure something this idiotic doesn't happen again? Will make everyone feel better and maybe be able to tolerate some truth after.
this is my FAMILY here, let us deal with and dont add anymore to this tragic ordeal that my brother ended up in, also racism isnt classy either.
Thanks Michelle. The PRPD didn't do anything and he spent a couple days in the hospital. Physically he is well now, how ever, damage has been done.
it isnt a matter of defending it's a matter of defending the undefendable? and are you kidding me? my parents raised us all with the best they could offer and my brother happened to go on the wrong path? am i condoning his actions? no? is the man involved in the stabbing completely innocent? probably not but you have no right to talk from a "moral" high horse if you come from a different walk of life. my little brother will learn the hard way but your uneeded comments torwards my family are unwarranted. and take your own advice and educate kids on the street as well, you need to learn about compassion, what kind of person takes a potshot at another persons family? you basic wretch
I'm curious at where racism has happened in any of these comments?
well if you knew both sides of the story you can talk, and that is a terrible thing to happen to someone but you cant compare the 2 since this one hasnt been revealed of what the motives or who the guy was. maybe the guy was gang related, you can never rule that out but comparing the 2 are 2 different things and what happened to your sibling is terrible but you still have no right to take potshots at my family for my brothers action. that is so lowbrow
Plus, nobody is keeping you from dealing with it. Has a mob shown up at your door disturbing your peace? We have a right to have feelings on the matter as well, our SAFETY was tampered with. I have FAMILY too. If this had happened to anyone in my FAMILY some heads would be rolling. How's that for classy?
You're right, I do not know the situation. But in NO WAY does that make gang activity OKAY or give it a pass because of an eye for an eye. Gang members need to get the hell over themselves and GROW UP.
Dani Kominsky how was your safety compromised? and how does this deal with your family? we arent talking about hypotheticals here, the facts are it had nothing to do with you and your families safety. I know my brother, i know he does stupid stuff, and knowing hime the guy probably wasnt an innocent angel…and it doesnt justify it but your FEELINGS to this are irrelevant since they do not deal with you in anyway. my brother is a dumbass, he likes to fight, but he isnt the kind of person to hurt an innocent person, if i was there I would bet anything the guy was just as stupid as my brother there. no one is innocent here.
You cannot tell me my feelings are irrelevant. Perhaps to YOU they are and for that I don't really care. My safety was compromised the minute a weapon was pulled out, whether the victim was innocent or not. Unnecessary.
Also Gabriel I'm still curious at how any of my comments are racist.
Dani Kominsky we can keep going on forever so it's moot now, all i know is that my brother will learn from this and probably come out a smarter and better person, you can have whatever notion you want to have but shaming someone on the wrong path isnt the way to go…people always have chances to improve and fyi a pot smoking teenager isnt a gangster. paso robles just loves to lump any minority into a gang
The minute there was gang violence EVERYONE including your self was higher morally. Do not assume my walk was much different than yours. In no way are my comments and right to speech unneeded. YOU do not have to read them or partake in this conversation yet you are. What is unneeded however is your second attempt at feeling powerful by calling me a name.
Dani Kominsky well maybe since my brother isnt in a gang. i talked to him various times about his lifestyle, i know his friends, everyone knows he isnt in a gang. he is a punk who used to a bright kid with great grades and a great future, he still has a chance at that after he learns his lesson but he is in no shape or form a gang member. being a young latino doesnt make you a gangster, i know you didnt say that but PRPD just loves to call every latino (including myself, someone who has no criminal record) suspicious for walking while brown
I hope he does come out smarter, Gabriel.
Dani Kominsky im not trying to feel powerful i am just foul mouthed 😛
maybe the parents need to be more active in their kids life and be positive role models. to know what they are doing with who they are doing it with and where they are. then maybe they wouldn't be out running with gangs or in prison.!
The biggest gang I know of parents…as parents we are getting tired of all this banging crap…we need solidarity and agree to take back.our.kids and our.town.
You.all.must be Backdoor guys on.the down low – cause you all.send out open invitations wearing.jeans showing.your draws.pants.buckled below your butt
Its.prison.non.verbal body language. By.the way…how come.we have to.watch.our comments and not shame your family
When your own brother doesn't seem real.concerned about.it? Tell.your.dad.to.be a dad and kick.your.brothers ass for bringing this down.on.you
He made the choice
.
.guess what
No.one is immune.from.the fall.out when.our kids make decisions.to.act like.they had no.proper upbringing
I wouldn't say it was quite racist but it was your question about the guy delivering pizza and getting beat up by Mexicans. The fact that they were Mexican is completely unnecessary and inconsequential. The nationality of the attackers probably doesn't have anything to do with their motive. I'm guessing that's what he was referring to as racist.
Wow daniel. You were so different back in high school. Look at it now. I would say it's all based on the person. A parent can try and be best role models for their kids try ams dp whatever they can for their kids BUT it also has to take effort for the kid to want to be different. I myself was a rebel did whatever i want when i wanted didn't care about anything or anyone or getting arrested, but my life turned around i noticed every stupid thing i did was not worth going to jail or at the time juvi. What the parents should do though is make their kids proactive make them get a job, to be more responsible. We all have to grow up sometime and that wanna be gang related stuff is bull there are no real gang memebers in paso just wanna be
Dani your stupid af .
I got love for brother Gabriel. Hope y'all get through this.
Noah, that's cute.
Believe it or not, Gabriel and I had a nice long talk last night via private message.
I'm curious if you can point out exactly wht makes me "stupid af "?
Idk but u still stupid
You would do we'll to be able to backup your statement or you just come off as silly and ignorant.
I'm a silly ignorant kid, but u still stupid
It's okay Chuck. He just got a little heated.
Dani kominsky…just leave the situation alone no one is asking for your input in the situation if anything your just as ignorant as they are…
Thanks for your input Rosa, but I was simply replying to people responding to me. I wasn't going to ignore that.
My Kika knows big words now 🙂 lol
Gang bangers are ripe for public hangings.
They're hands are a weapon they were in a Boxing class and once you enter boxing your hands are registered as weapons so they are in a lot of Trouble
Why don't you white people hop your European asses back to Europe
I would really like someone to tell me exactly how I'm being racist, lol
Because I'm white and I have an opinion on the stupidity of others?
Chuck, shut up bro. All that your doing is verifying my suspicions of your being a dumbass. I know that you don't have the statistics nor reading comprehension skills to back up anything that you're saying. Tell me at what point is there even an implication that I'm backing up any of the people that are being reported on? Also, do you think that your being a racist makes me look or feel bad. Keep spitting at the sky.
IGNORANCE
I understand how the Flores family feels my cousin never stabbed anyone or hurt anyone that I know of, but he went down the wrong path also. I don't support him or his decisions, but myself and my family are good people. It is just a matter of peer pressure and some people are subject to it more than others. I hope that people will leave the Flores family alone, they did nothing wrong, the only one who did was Gabriel's brother and he is in jail and going to take responsibility for his crime.
Daniel isnt a bad person my huspand worked with him and its sad that he ended up like this daniel isnt even a gang member he just went with what his frieds said and thats i im not excusing his behavior nor condeming him gang violence isnt ok anywhere yet mexicans shouldnt be blame. For every act of. Violence that happends. Everywhere.
