The LAPD said one person in custody had a 'significant' criminal history.
A surge of resources deployed in response to increased burglaries in the San Fernando Valley has led to two "significant" arrests, Interim LAPD Chief Dominic Choi announced Tuesday."About a week and a half ago, there were two significant arrests that were made. The investigations will tell you that these two individuals are well known for burglaries," Choi told the city's Board of Police Commissioners.
"PREVIOUS COVERAGE: Choi also highlighted how offices responded to a theft of sneakers, which resulted in one suspect being apprehended and another one still being searched for."You also may have heard that nearby there was also a computer store that was burglarized just before. We have reason to believe — I won't get into too much detail — that the same suspects were involved in that burglary as well," Choi said.
