SUMMARY: On Saturday, November 11, 2023, at about 12:44 p.m., deputies responded to the 13300 block of Highway 395 for a report of a suspicious vehicle. As Deputy Leon approached the vehicle, he observed a high-capacity magazine on the center console and a Kimber 1911 on the driver’s lap.
The driver was identified as Jaylin Stevenson, the other three occupants were identified as Ryan Lusk, Elijiah Love, and 17-year-old male. All four subjects were detained without incident. A search of the vehicle yielded a Kimber 1911, Glock 9MM, Polymer 80 9MM, Derringer style.22 caliber, and a Dreaco 9MM AK-style rifle. Deputies also found one-half pound of marijuana, one-half pound of suspected psychedelic mushrooms, digital scales, packaging materials, and currency.
Further investigation revealed the Kimber and Glock were stolen during a commercial burglary in Murrietta where the unknown suspects drove a stolen Kia into a gun store. 44 total firearms were stolen in that burglary, and many are still outstanding.
Stevenson, Lusk, and Love were arrested and booked at High Desert Detention Center. The 17-year-old male was arrested and booked at San Bernardino County Juvenile Hall.
