The Amador County Sheriff’s Office is conducting an on-going investigation into a shooting which occurred two weeks ago in Pine Grove.  As part of that investigation, the Sheriff’s Office secured an Amador County Superior Court Ramey Arrest Warrant for suspect Joshua Cornell Walker, 23, who fled the scene of the incident after allegedly shooting his girlfriend’s husband and former roommate three times with a shotgun.  Bail was set at 750,000 dollars for the warrant which alleges Walker committed attempted murder, was a convicted felon in possession of a firearm, possessed an unlawful firearm, used a firearm in the commission of a felony, discharged a firearm resulting in great bodily injury and that he committed a felony resulting in great bodily injury. On Friday, July 11, the Sheriff was contacted by a member of the Office of Correctional Safety - Fugitive Apprehension Team, which is a task force operated in cooperation with the United States Marshal's Office. 

The Fugitive Apprehension Team offered to assist in locating and apprehending Walker, as Walker was also wanted for violation of parole. On Monday, July 21, the Fugitive Apprehension Team, assisted by the Reno Police Department and the Sparks Police Department, conducted surveillance of multiple locations in the Reno, Nevada area.  After several hours of surveillance, it was determined that Walker, along with Caitlin Jaye Steinmeyer, 24, of Pine Grove were living at a Reno area residence.  Walker and Steinmeyer were subsequently taken into custody at that location without incident.  Steinmeyer is the wife of the shooting victim. Walker is currently in custody in the Washoe County Jail on the Amador Superior Court Arrest Warrant. The Reno Police Department has arrested Steinmeyer for harboring a fugitive.
