Narrative: | |||||
On May 10, 2018, the Ventura County Combined Agency Team (VCAT) concluded an investigation into heroin sales in western Ventura County with the arrest of Irvin Reveles. Earlier this year, detectives learned of a heroin delivery service named, “The Boys” operating primarily in Ventura, Oxnard, Port Hueneme, and the Ojai Valley. The delivery service was receiving thousands of calls per month from Ventura County customers desiring to purchase heroin. Investigators learned the delivery driver for this organization was Irvin Reveles. A search warrant was obtained for Reveles, his two vehicles, and his residence in the 600 block of Halyard in Port Hueneme. Reveles was arrested while he was walking to his car before he could begin his day delivering heroin to his customers. He was found to be in possession of heroin packaged for street level sales. The search warrant was served on his cars and his residence where additional heroin, a significant amount of drug proceeds, and an imitation firearm were discovered. About 1000 doses of heroin were seized. Reveles was booked into custody at the Ventura County Jail where he is awaiting a court date. The investigation is continuing into the individual who directed Reveles’ criminal activity. That individual is identified and operating out of Mexico. VCAT is a narcotics task force made up of detectives from the Ventura County Sheriff’s Office, Oxnard Police Department, and Simi Valley Police Department. The California National Guard – Counterdrug Task Force provided substantial assistance in this case through investigative support and logistics. |
