An alert resident saw several subjects near a suspicious vehicle and immediately notified Azusa Police dispatch. Responding officers were given the vehicle description on the vehicle which had left the area. An officer saw a vehicle matching the description and conducted a traffic stop.

During the investigation, the above four subjects were detained and miscellaneous stolen items were discovered inside the vehicle. Additionally, officers identified some of the property as having been taken during a residential burglary in the immediate vicinity of the stop. The stolen items were eventually identified by the victim of the burglary.

Additional stolen property found in the vehicle was recovered. It was also determined that the individuals had also burglarized additional residences, however those locations and/or victims have yet to be identified.
