In a Facebook post on Saturday, Dec. 6, 2025, the Hercules Police Department announced they were actively investigating a suspicious death that occurred on Spinel Court, and while the investigation was ongoing, they reassured the public that there was no threat to community members at the time.

Officers and Detectives were on scene and conducted a thorough investigation to determine the circumstances surrounding this incident.

Later in the day, the Hercules PD posted, “We have successfully completed our investigation and are no longer asking community members to avoid the area. We would like to thank everyone for their cooperation during this incident and would like to once again, assure community members there is no danger or threat from this incident.”

Anyone who may have seen or heard anything, or who has information that could assist investigators, is urged to contact Detective Sgt. Tafesse at 510-799-8271 or etafesse@herculesca.gov.
