Press Release: Three Arrested and Two Stolen Vehicles Recovered
November
7, 2013
Shortly
before 2:00 this morning, November 7, officers from the Los Alamitos Police
Department were called to the 12100 block of Cherry St. in the Rossmoor
Highlands neighborhood after a resident reported seeing someone ransacking her
parked vehicle. No suspects were immediately located, but after
establishing a containment and searching the neighborhood, thefts from three
additional vehicles were discovered.
With the assistance of the Cypress police, Seal Beach police, and
security personnel from the Joint Forces Training Base, officers continued
their search and subsequently located and arrested two male juvenile suspects
from Hawaiian Gardens. They also located
and recovered a red 1991 Ford Tempo, reported stolen from Lakewood. It is believed the suspects used the vehicle
to travel to the neighborhood. One of
the juveniles was found hiding on the side of a residential home, and the second
juvenile was found hiding on the Joint Forces Training Base, bordering the
Rossmoor Highlands neighborhood.

Press Release
Three Arrested and Two Stolen Vehicles
Recovered Following Thefts from Vehicles
As
the containment and search unfolded, an officer observed a suspicious blue 2008
Lexus SUV drive in and out of the neighborhood.
When the officer attempted to stop the vehicle to investigate, a pursuit
ensued through the unincorporated area of Rossmoor and onto the 605
freeway. The pursuit terminated in
Hawaiian Gardens near the intersection of Carson and Norwalk Blvd following the
suspect vehicle’s collision with a raised center median. The driver of the SUV fled the area, but an
adult female passenger was taken into custody after a brief foot pursuit. It was discovered that the SUV had just been
stolen in Seal Beach, although the theft had not yet been reported. Reyna Olivas Vasquez, 22, of Hawaiian Gardens
was taken into custody and booked at Orange County Jail on charges of
possession of stolen property and obstruction.
The identities of the juveniles are being withheld; however, one juvenile
was released to his legal guardian while the other, a walk-away from the Los
Padrinos Juvenile Facility in Downey, was remanded back to their custody. They will also be charged with possession of
stolen property and obstruction.
The
investigation remains on-going and the police are seeking any additional
victims or witnesses. Anyone with
information regarding the incident is encouraged to contact the Los Alamitos
Police Department at (562) 594-7232.
