On September 6, 2015, patrol deputies responded to a residence in the 3000 block of Cajon Circle in the Unincorporated area of Camarillo regarding a robbery that had just occurred.  Deputies determined two suspects woke up the victim and directed the victim to open his safe for them.  The suspects stole a large amount of US currency, jewelry and documents.  The suspects then restrained the victim before fleeing the victim’s residence.
 
Detectives with the East County Investigations Bureau and Thousand Oaks Special Enforcement Unit conducted an investigation into the robbery and identified one of the suspects in the robbery as William Hansen.  In February 2016, Thousand Oaks Police Deputies arrested Hansen on unrelated charges.  During a subsequent investigation, detectives located evidence linking Hansen to the home invasion robbery.
