News Story - Juveniles Arrested in Fillmore Crime Spree

Nature of Incident: Three Fillmore Juveniles Arrested After Crime Spree Report Number: 18-93525 Location: 700 Block of Third Street Date & Time: 06/17/2018 at 5:27 AM Unit(s) Responsible: Fillmore Police Department (S)uspects, (V)ictims, (P)arty, (D)ecedent City of Residence Age Juvenile 1 Juvenile 2 Juvenile 3 Fillmore Fillmore Fillmore 16 15 14 Narrative: Three Fillmore juveniles were arrested early Sunday morning after they stole a bicycle from a residence in the 700 block of Third Street in Fillmore. Additional investigation by Fillmore deputies and detectives revealed that two of the juveniles were also involved in a separate commercial burglary and an attempted commercial burglary that happened during the prior week. On the morning of 6/13/18, Fillmore deputies responded to a commercial burglary at a business in the 400 block of Central Avenue. Deputies and detectives discovered that during overnight hours, unknown suspects broke a window at the business and made entry through the broken window, stealing cash and merchandise. On the morning of 6/16/18, Fillmore deputies responded to an attempted commercial burglary at a business in the 1300 block of Ventura Street. Deputies and detectives discovered that during the overnight hours, unknown suspects broke a skylight to the business but were not successful making entry down into the business, so nothing was stolen. Deputies and detectives obtained several leads in both of the commercial burglaries and were continuing with their investigation when, on the morning of 6/17/18, at approximately 5:30 AM, Fillmore deputies responded to a call of a theft of a bicycle in the 700 block of Third Street with three males running from the area. Deputies quickly responded to the area, located the three juveniles, and, following their investigation, arrested them for conspiracy to commit petty theft. Deputies and detectives later identified two of the juveniles as the suspects who attempted to break into the business on Ventura Street the previous morning, and evidence found during subsequent probation searches linked the two juveniles to the crime. Additional evidence was found that linked them to the commercial burglary that occurred on 6/13/18 at the business on Central Avenue. In addition to the arrests of the three juveniles for conspiracy to commit theft, two of the juveniles were also arrested for attempted burglary, burglary, and being in possession of stolen property. All three juveniles were lodged at Juvenile Hall.
