Diamond Bar Burglary Suspects Arrested in Pomona

DIAMOND BAR, CA - Pomona police arrested four suspects in connection with a residential burglary and a stolen vehicle, authorities said today.

The arrests took place Wednesday at the American Inn Motel at 310 E. Foothill Blvd, according to Pomona police Sgt. Brian Hagerty.

Officers from the department’s Major Crimes Task Force were in the area of the motel when they spotted a white 2007 Toyota Camry being driven into the motel parking lot with one man inside.

The officers ran the car’s plate and found it was reported stolen in the Diamond Bar area during a residential burglary, Hagerty said. Officers conducted a traffic stop and arrested the driver on suspicion of grand theft auto.

Further investigation led the officers to a room at the motel, where they took into custody three more people, two adults and one juvenile, and recovered property stolen in the Diamond Bar burglary, Hagerty said.

The suspects included: Daniel Torres, 23, of Pomona; Deserie Villa, 38, of Pomona; Victoria Ahedd, 19, of Pomona and a 17-year-old boy whose name was withheld because of his age.
