Last week Tuesday, we told you about 31-year-old Dillon Diamond. The cops say that he’s the parolee who tried to rob an off-duty police officer, and tonight, the man who was reportedly his accomplice is out on bail.
He’s 28-year-old Orlando Salazar, and he was arraigned today before Senior Magistrate Tricia Pitts-Anderson the offense of attempted robbery. He pleaded not guilty to the offense, and he was released on bail of $5,000. He must return to court on February 13th, 2020.
As we told you, the incident occurred on December 1st. Police Constable Javier Marroquin reported that he and 2 other officers were socializing on East Collet Canal when a man snuck up behind him. This man poked him in the side with an object in an aggressive manner. Marroquin said that when he turned around to face his would-be assailant, this man and his associate ran away.
Salazar, who has been identified as the accomplice, got off a murder charge in February of this year.
