Repo Man's Assault Leads to Arrest

Jason Diskin, 46, was arrested on Tuesday on suspicion of assault, police say.

Two men were arrested yesterday for attacking a man trying to repossess a truck in unincorporated Murrieta, police said.

Jason Diskin, 46, of Temecula, and Joshua Brown, 39, of Hemet, are free on bail today after they were booked at the Southwest Detention Center last night on suspicion of carjacking and assault with a deadly weapon, according to Riverside County Sheriff's Department online booking records. 

The alleged victim was preparing to tow the truck with his own vehicle when the two suspects attacked him. The victim, who was sitting inside the truck when the attack began, fled back to his vehicle and called 911.

40 year old knobs. If you don't pay for that vehicle they're going to get it back dumb asses. Now you face prison and I hope you get it all.

What's wrong with you people. Life is tough and bad choices are made, but these 2 guys live in America. You're supposed to be innocent until proven guilty. There are 2 sides to every story and only one was told here. Hold you judements until at least all the story is told. Maybe, just maybe, these 2 guys didn't do what the article says they are acccused of. Maybe all the did was not pay their bills....maybe the fed their kids instead. There's no debters prisons in America. CHILL OUT!!!!!!!!

Yes, you're right. They're guilty of not paying their bill, but of this other stuff? Really?

Repo men are supposed to leave if there is a confrontation and have police assist them.

All comes down to getting the "GOLD" Balanced right in the big City Hall right? We areRead More broke we are broke! We have how many more million dollar residents, ranches, farms who pay taxes, how many more business's, triple, quadruple, on and on that pay taxes, and some very large business's at that for YEARS. Yet Murietta and Menifee with just the few they have can manage to not only put in side walks, AND ALSO ACTULLY Listen their residents, instead of call them names like Paul has been, concerns and respond to them. Hell we are just now getting some attention to our driving issues with running red lights, speeding, not stopping at stop signs, driving drunk, high, or wreeklessly causing deaths and serious injuries to walkers, bike riders, skate board, scooter riders, wheelchairs, motor bike riders, and other cars. But how many lives were lost or severly disabled until we just now the last 2 weeks have been giving traffic details for different areas, cell phone details, etc. Lucky to get some sidewalks finished in 10 years if someone doesnt figure out where our "Gold" is we all pay in. And stop calling names people at the City meetings to Paul or anyone else trying to get our City to do what its there for. By the time someone in your own family is killed they will be laughing at you for standing up asking for sidewalks right? Just like on the "Patch" comment areas, always calling names instead of sticking with your fellow Temeculites and getting us something DONE! Before we loose more lives
