Trending in Arrests

Each week, we will post an arrest of interest pointing toward arrest and crime trends within Arcadia. Business and restaurants often utilize GPS enabled currency to aid in recovery and arrest if the establishment is robbed or broken into. We have recently had a couple of commercial burglaries where thieves made off with GPS equipped cash packs, helping lead officers to the suspects location.

During the early morning hours on January 17th, a group of four suspects broke into a restaurant in the 1000 block of South Baldwin Avenue. They smashed the glass on the front door, disabled a CCTV camera, and made off with the cash drawer. The suspects ran to an awaiting car and fled. The GPS device led officers to the four suspects, parked in their getaway vehicle on Peck Road in El Monte.
