Once again, an alert resident calls the police with information leading officers to detain and arrest five suspects for residential burglary. This past Tuesday afternoon, a teenage Hispanic female knocked on the door of a home off Foothill Boulevard. The resident answered the door and the female showed a flyer asking if the resident had seen her dog. When the girl was told no, she quickly left and got into a green 2002 Nissan Altima with a male driver. As the Nissan left, the resident was able to write down the license plate. The resident did not recognize the girl and felt her actions were suspicious so they called APD.

 

Officers found the Nissan parked nearby in the 1200 block Rancho Road and saw a teenage female walking across the street back to the car. The officers detained the female along with four other males who were in the car. Inside the Nissan, officers found what appeared to be possible stolen property.

 

During the detention, we learned a residential burglary had occurred in the City of Sierra Madre and officers believed the persons who were being detained were possibly involved. A witness was brought to the scene and identified one of the suspects. 

 

Amaijay J. Duncan, a 20-year-old male from Compton, Trevor K. Pamphlim, an 18-year-old male from Los Angeles, a 17-year-old male from Granada Hills, a 16-year-old male from Compton, and a 17-year-old female from Compton were all arrested on suspicion of residential burglary. It is believed this group is responsible for several attempted burglaries and at least two area burglaries within the last week. This is another great example of community and law enforcement working together to help prevent crime. Remember, if you See Something, Say Something!
