On Sunday November 3, 2019, approximately 9:26 p.m., Moraga Police received a call reporting a possible burglary and robbery at a residence in the 100 block of Donald Drive.  The suspects were described as 3-4 males, wearing hooded sweatshirts and were armed with baseball bats and at least one gun. The suspects reportedly ran from the residence.

Officers responding to the call observed a vehicle turning onto Moraga Road from Donald Drive and stopped the vehicle on Moraga Road near Moraga Way. The vehicle was occupied by 4 males who were wearing hooded sweatshirts.  Officers conducted a high risk vehicle stop and all 4 occupants were detained without incident.  The victims later identified all 4 of the vehicle occupants as being involved in the incident.  Officers also located a baseball bat and a stolen, loaded handgun in the vehicle.

The investigation revealed that at least one of the subjects had purchased a large quantity of marijuana at the residence in the past.  Following that purchase, the suspects returned to steal marijuana from the resident.  One of the suspects was armed with a handgun and the others were armed with baseball bats when they entered the home.  None of the occupants of the residence were injured and the suspects left the residence after taking marijuana and a wallet.  A large quantity of marijuana (in excess of 10 lbs.) was later located inside the suspect vehicle.

The four subjects were identified as Emarieay Prescott, 21, of Oakland; Domenico Delgado Caramagno, 20, of Oakland; Azrael Vargas, 19, of Berkeley; and Thomas Lloyd III, 20, of Oakland.  All four subjects were later booked into the Contra Costa County Jail in Martinez on charges including robbery, burglary, conspiracy, possession of a firearm and violation of probation.
