4 arrested in connection with suspected burglary crew targeting homes in San Bernardino County

SAN ANTONIO HEIGHTS, Calif. (KABC) -- Four men suspected of ties to an organized South American residential burglary crew have been arrested, authorities said.

The San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department said the suspects are believed to have targeted homes using camouflaged surveillance cameras, WiFi jamming devices and other tools.

The suspects were identified as Jesus Velez-Hernandez, 35, Sergio Paez-Cuervo, 38, Javier Pulido-Ramirez, 41, and Akksel Cadena-Diaz, 29, all citizens of Colombia.

"Search warrants served in Los Angeles County resulted in the recovery of stolen property, burglary tools, electronic jamming devices, and surveillance equipment believed to be connected to additional residential burglaries throughout Southern California," read an update from the sheriff's department.

Three suspects are currently in custody in Ventura County. The fourth suspect was booked at the West Valley Detention Center and is being held without bail.

The arrests follow a residential burglary reported last month in San Antonio Heights, an unincorporated area of Upland, according to the department.

Anyone with information about the incident is urged to contact the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department.
