3 Arrested In Connection To San Leandro Robbery

SAN LEANDRO, CA -- Three suspects have arrested in connection with a home invasion robbery that occurred in San Leandro in early November. On Nov. 4, Jose Mendez, 23, Maurice Moreno, 21 and Jose Gonzales, 20, were involved in a daytime home invasion robbery at a home on Central Avenue, according to the San Leandro Police Department.

The suspects held the residents, including a 5-year-old boy at gunpoint as they ransacked the home and stole cash and other valuables before fleeing, police said.

Witnesses in the neighborhood were able to provide police with a description and a partial license plate number of the vehicle used in the robbery.

Police said the suspects used the same vehicle in similar crimes in neighboring jurisdictions.

Police said Mendez and Gonzales were located and arrested in late November by Alameda County Sheriff's Office deputies. San Leandro Police Department detectives arrested Moreno earlier this week.
