Police Seeking Owners Stolen Side-View Mirrors

MANHATTAN BEACH, CA - Police in Manhattan Beach sought Friday to locate owners of vehicles with missing side-view mirrors, after four young people were found with nearly 100 of them during a traffic stop.

Three men and a woman were arrested about 2:50 a.m. Thursday, after officers who pulled over a driver for a traffic violation found about 95 side- view mirrors in the vehicle, according to Manhattan Beach police.

The suspects were identified as Los Angeles residents Marissa Cardosa and Kevin Martinez, both 19, and two Lynwood men, 18-year-old Abraham Negrete and 19-year-old Juan Villalvazo, police said.

Martinez and Villalvazo were both being held in lieu of $20,000 bail pending arraignment Tuesday in Torrance Superior Court. There's no word on the bail set for Cardosa and Negrete.

Anyone who has had their vehicle mirror stolen within the past five days was urged to call their local law enforcement agency to file a police report and reference Manhattan Beach Police Department report number 16-1884.
