Narrative:
 
A Fillmore resident was identified and arrested for prowling and peeking into the window of a local residence.  On October 11, 2023, at approximately 11:00 PM and on July 20, 2023, at approximately 12:16 AM, the Fillmore Police Department received reports of a prowler in the 900 block of Wileman Street in the city of Fillmore.  Both incidents were captured on RING cameras and appeared to be the same suspect.     
 
Fillmore detectives and Fillmore patrol deputies worked at collecting and identifying leads pertaining to these crimes.  On October 17, 2023, a news release was sent out requesting the public’s assistance in identifying this suspect.  Several photographs of the suspect committing these two crimes were caught on RING camera footage and included in the news release.  
 
On October 24, 2023, at approximately 2:30 PM, the Fillmore Police Station received a telephone call from a local resident who saw a subject matching the description of the prowler after viewing the photographs in the news release.
 
Fillmore detectives immediately followed up on this tip and they contacted and identified 53-year-old J Ines Robles, a Fillmore resident, in the 200 block of A street in the city of Fillmore.  Detectives interviewed Robles and collected additional incriminating evidence linking and positively identifying Robles as the suspect in both prowling crimes. Robles was arrested for two counts of prowling and two counts of peeking. 
 
The Fillmore Police Department and Ventura County Sheriff’s Office encourage witnesses to notify the Sheriff’s Communication Center at 805-654-9511 or 911 for emergencies of any suspected illegal activity they witness so deputies can investigate these matters as soon as they happen.
