SUMMARY: On November 20, 2017, at about 8:30 a.m., Deputy Gile located a stolen 1996 Acura. The vehicle was taken in front of a residence in Loma Linda. Gile was familiar with the house next door and knew the tenants were on felony probation with search terms. Gile requested the assistance from deputies and detectives to conduct a probation search of the residence. The subjects inside were detained without incident and determined to be gang members or gang affiliated from the city of Colton.

Deputies located the car thief and found a stolen gun taken out of Riverside. During the search of the residence, deputies recovered evidence consistent with the falsifying, counterfeiting, altering and manufacturing forged checks and credit cards. Investigators believe the suspects had conspired to defraud local businesses and victims of their money, goods, and services.

Deputies arrested Quintin Lugo, Jose Galvez, Darlene Ayala, Adam Soto, Randy Anguiano, and Agustin Mesa, for conspiracy, identity theft, forgery, possession of stolen property and other felonies. All suspects were transported and booked at the Central Detention Center.
