Fontana Police Department has issued an urgent plea for assistance in locating Ronalee Barrett Stanberry, who is suspected of fatally assaulting a local business owner in Fontana, as reported in a FOX LA news release. The incident occurred on January 10 when the 79-year-old victim was attacked with a baseball bat by Stanberry while opening his Allstate Insurance office.
The suspect, described as a transient with connections to several areas including Chino, Los Angeles, and Kern County, has been difficult to locate. After committing the unprovoked attack, Stanberry is said to have fled towards the eastbound 10 Freeway on-ramp at Sierra Avenue.
