Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s deputies investigating what appeared to be suspicious activity in a county park say they arrested six suspected gang members, after they found two guns, ammunition, and drugs in a park restroom.
The deputies were driving through Rocky Nook Park, in Mission Canyon around 9:30 Monday night when they noticed what appeared to be fresh gang graffiti on a picnic table. As they investigated, in a nearby restroom they found a shoebox containing two pistols, close to 100 rounds of ammunition, and some baggies of cocaine.
Four adults, and two juveniles were arrested for weapons and drugs possession, as well as for some other lesser charges.
