A jury found an East Palo Alto man — who injured two police officers attempting to take him into custody for stealing alcohol — guilty of seven felonies on March 25, including felony assault with a deadly weapon and resisting arrest, San Mateo County District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe said.
The man, Aaron Martinez, 31, faces 25 years to life in prison because of two previous convictions under the three strikes law, Wagstaffe said.
