OUCH: A suspected burglar who was interrupted and detained by an Oak Park resident is just one of the latests arrests in a growing problem of South American theft groups.
Charges have been filed against a Chilean national who authorities say was interrupted by an Oak Park resident in the middle of burglarizing the home and is part of a South American burglary crew that is targeting homes in Ventura County.
Aranguiz was arrested Friday night in Oak Park, where a resident returned home to find a strange SUV idling in his driveway. The District Attorney's Office says the resident found two burglars inside and hit one of them before he was able to run away and get into the waiting SUV. The resident was able to detain Aranguiz as he emerged from inside the home until Ventura County sheriff's deputies arrived, according to Nasarenko's office.
Aranguiz is believed to be one of a number of South Americans who have been traveling to Ventura County just to commit crimes.
