Fifteen suspects were arrested during a massive retail theft bust in Ventura County.

The multi-day blitz took place at the Camarillo Premium Outlets from Oct. 4 to 6, according to the Ventura County Sheriff’s Office.

Around $23,000 worth of stolen property was discovered by deputies, along with a stolen vehicle, around 90 grams of methamphetamine and various burglary tools.

Deputies were also involved in two separate vehicle pursuits during the operation.

The suspects were identified as:

• Gonzalo Fernandez, 20, of Watsonville
• Andres Flores, 21, of Watsonville
• Derell Jones, 23, of Long Beach
• Bayron Gabriel Rivera Florez, 23, of Los Angeles
• Gerson Sanchez, 25, of Los Angeles
• Martin Munoz, 30, of Oxnard
• Teresa Raya, 30, of Oxnard
• Leando Quinton Willis, 30, of Gardena
• Dajuan Maurice Butler, 31, of Los Angeles
• Qwana Crystal Moore, 35, of Los Angeles
• Keisa Rene Scott Lyn, 42, of Carson
• Lerin Davron Smallwood, 44, of Carson
• Carolina Valverde, 60, of Van Nuys
• Zuelma Rodriguez, 64, of Oxnard
• Male juvenile, 17, of Porter Ranch

The first vehicle pursuit involved Derrell Jones and Dajuan Butler after reported thefts at Target and Walmart stores in Camarillo. The suspects, driving a Ford Mustang, led deputies on a dangerous chase. At one point, patrol units boxed their vehicle in, but the suspects rammed the patrol cars to escape.

The high-speed chase finally ended when the suspects lost a rear tire. Inside the Mustang, deputies found about $7,000 worth of stolen merchandise from various retail stores. They also found 90 grams of methamphetamine.

The second pursuit involved Carolina Valverde after she was seen reportedly stealing from a Nike store at the Camarillo Outlets. Deputies later spotted her car on the 101 Freeway, but she refused to pull over, leading units on a pursuit.

She eventually crashed into a chainlink fence at a California Highway Patrol weigh station. She continued driving erratically around the parking lot before patrol vehicles boxed her in and ended the chase. Around $7,000 worth of stolen merchandise was also found inside her car, officials said.

The rest of the suspects were all arrested on a variety of charges including conspiracy to commit organized retail theft, possession of stolen property, grand theft, outstanding warrants, resisting arrest, vehicle theft, receiving stolen property, shoplifting, being under the influence of a controlled substance, possession of drug paraphernalia and more.

“This two-day event was a collaboration between law enforcement, outlet retailers and the outlet’s security personnel,” deputies said.

The Ventura County Organized Retail Theft Task Force force is comprised of detectives from various agencies within Ventura County focused on combatting organized retail theft, vehicle/vehicle parts theft and cargo theft.

“The task force aims to provide a safe environment for everyone while working hand in hand with retailers, law enforcement agencies and the public to identify, locate and arrest the criminals involved in these types of crimes,” authorities added.

A head-on collision between two vehicles left one dead and two injured in Lancaster early Saturday morning.

The crash was reported at 6:14 a.m. in the area of 55th Street East and Avenue J, according to the Los Angeles County Fire Department, and involved two vehicles collided head on for unknown reasons.

The L.A. County Sheriff’s Department’s Lancaster Division later confirmed the fatality. A man, who is yet to be identified publicly, was pronounced dead in a local hospital.

Two others, who remain unidentified, were transported to a local hospital. Their conditions were unknown as of Saturday afternoon.

It’s not yet clear if speed or intoxication contributed to the crash. No additional details were immediately made available.

Security footage caught thieves stealing an ATM from the Balboa Market in the San Fernando Valley early morning Friday, using a van to rip off part of the store’s entrance for the heist.

Police said a call came in around 3:07 a.m. reporting the damage and two white vans leaving the neighborhood market in the 7600 block of Balboa Boulevard.

The Los Angeles Police Department said officers arrived and took a burglary report, but have not yet provided information on what was stolen.

The owners of the market, however, said they lost $3,500 in the heist and the thieves caused $20,000 in damages.

Footage of the aftermath showed the liquor and flower section nearly destroyed.

“We work every day and we come to work not expecting stuff like this to happen,” the night manager told KTLA’s Rick Chambers. “But I guess there’s people out there that don’t care.”

This ATM theft is one of many that have taken place within the area recently, where vehicles ram the store or use chains to rip outdoors.

Balboa Market has already managed to clean the destruction and boarded up the windows.

Employees told KTLA they hope the owners can overcome the loss and they encourage community members to help give the recovering shop some business.
