NARRATIVE:
On Monday, June 8, 2015, investigators from the Los Angeles County Major Crimes Bureau, Metro Detail, Burglary-Robbery Task Force, were conducting an ongoing investigation into a suspected residential burglary “crew”. Detectives believed multiple male and female members of a Los Angeles area criminal street gang were using rental vehicles while committing “knock-knock” style residential burglaries throughout Los Angeles County. At around noon, Major Crimes Bureau investigators saw two men and two women driving a rental car slowly through an upscale residential neighborhood in the Pacific Palisades area.
At approximately 12:45 PM, investigators observed Suspect Jarrett knock on the front door of a residence and peer into the front windows. Shortly thereafter, Suspect Jarrett and Suspect Fisher jumped over a side gate into the backyard of the residence. At around 1 PM, both suspects were observed jumping back out over the same side gate carrying a bag and items they had not previously had. The rental vehicle quickly re-appeared in front of the house being driven by Suspect Caldwell and picked up both Suspect Jarrett and Suspect Fisher. Investigators also observed Suspect Overstreet, who had rented the vehicle, seated in the car.
Detectives quickly confirmed that the residence had been ransacked and burglarized. A short distance away, near the corner of Sunset Boulevard and Paseo Miramar, Task Force tactical deputies conducted a traffic stop where all four suspects were detained without incident. Stolen property (jewelry, watches, and sentimental heirlooms) from the burglarized home were recovered from inside the car as well as on the person of Suspect Overstreet. The property recovered was valued at over $10,000.
All four suspects were arrested and booked at South Los Angeles Sheriff’s Station for residential burglary and are being held on $50,000 bail each. Bail is expected to be increased based on each suspect’s criminal street gang affiliations.
Suspect Overstreet was out of custody, on bond, for a recent felony evasion/vehicle pursuit arrest and has previously been arrested fifteen times for felony violations including: illegal possession of a firearm, burglary, and possession of stolen property.
Suspect Jarrett was out of custody on parole for a residential burglary conviction and has multiple previous felony arrests.
Suspect Caldwell was also out of custody on parole for a residential burglary conviction and is a three strike candidate. He has been arrested for over a dozen felony violations including: illegal firearm possession, burglary, and theft.
Suspect Fisher has numerous previous felony arrests including: murder, attempted murder, robbery, and burglary.
Citizens are reminded to lock and secure their homes while away, and quickly report suspicious persons or vehicles in your neighborhood to local law enforcement.
