Vandalism suspects arrested
By Ventura County Sheriff Department — Tuesday, January 21st, 2014
 Ventura County Sheriff's Department At about 11:00 PM on 1-15-2014, an off-duty Ventura County Sheriff’s deputy was the victim of a vehicle vandalism. The deputy, and his son, who is also a Ventura County Sheriff’s employee, saw the suspects flee the area in a vehicle. They both immediately began to search for the suspects and the vehicle. The off-duty deputy spotted the vehicle a few blocks away from the scene. The off-duty deputy followed the suspects and coordinated a response with Camarillo patrol deputies who eventually were able to stop and arrest the suspects at Central Avenue, near the 101 freeway. Investigators interviewed the four suspects and determined they had been on a crime spree, vandalizing houses, vehicles, and mailboxes over the past six months. The suspects used metal baseball bats and lemons to cause several thousand dollars in damage to the victims’ property. Investigators believe the suspects are responsible for over 15 cases of vandalism throughout Camarillo. All four suspects were booked at the Pre-Trial Detention Facility for conspiracy to commit a crime and vandalism. All four suspects are currently in custody with bail set at $20,000.00. Nature of Incident: Vandalism suspects arrested. |
