Tehama County Sheriff's De- partment released the name and photograph of a third person, Gambino Madera, Monday af- ternoon. The press release did not state whether Madera, 19, of Corning, was a suspect or not, only that detectives were seeking to contact him and urging anyone knowing his whereabouts to con- tact the department at 529-7920. Shortly before 11 p.m. Wednes- day deputies responded to the Crossroads Market at the inter- section of Gyle Road and State Route 99W for a report of a man down. Deputies found Walter De- wayne Dani, 24, of Red Bluff in front of the business. He was pro- nounced dead at the scene. A pre- liminary examination indicated he died of a gunshot wound to the head. Early reports indicated that there were three subjects involved in the sooting that left in an older maroon "boxy" style sedan. Poly Duenas Sanchez, 19, of Corning was arrested Thursday on a open count of murder. On Saturday Lucio Nenecio Madera, 19, of Corning was inter- viewed and subsequently charged with murder. HOMICIDE Secondshootingsuspectarrested RED BLUFF The oak tree that shaded the adobe structure in the center of the historic area of Ide Adobe State Historic Park lost a majority of its limbs around 9:15 a.m. Sunday, caus- ing significant damage to the adobe and several of the other buildings in the park. No one was injured during the incident. The 350-year-old oak tree has provided shade to visitors of the park for many generations and was around long before the adobe building was first built in the 1850s. The state made several efforts throughout the years to keep the tree as part of the park's history, including regular inspections, cabling of the limbs and trim- ming as needed. Sunday morning, the tree faced catastrophic failure when it suddenly lost almost all of its branches. The first branch to fall landed on the roof of the adobe caus- ing a portion of the structure to collapse. When other branches fell, they caused damage to the smokehouse, workshop and the pump house. Park's staff were working Sunday on securing the site and removing the debris. Addi- tional resources will need to be utilized to remove the branch still resting on top of the adobe building in order to minimize damage. It is unclear as to what caused the tree failure and what it will take to repair the damaged buildings. Park staff will reeval- uate the situations and deter- mine what it will take to make the buildings serviceable again. The historic section of the park will remain closed until further notice. The visitor's cen- ter and day use picnic will re- main open at normal hours, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Grounds, sunrise to sunset. Call 530-529-8599 for up- dates.
