Ventura County Sheriff’s detectives say they’ve arrested three men for a sophisticated burglary which may be linked to a series of similar crimes throughout Southern California.
On July 29, the victims were at work when they discovered the tires of both of their parked vehicles had been slashed. When they returned to their Lake Sherwood home, they found it had been ransacked.
Officials identified three Los Angeles men as suspects. When they tried to arrest them last week, they tried to flee in a vehicle. But it hit a parked car, and they were arrested.
Burglary tools and other evidence linking the suspects to the Ventura County case were found. The men also had elaborate suits camouflaged as trees, which they may have used to blend in with their surroundings.
