Police Recover Property, Truck, Credit Cards
It started Monday morning with a single allegation of a young man using a stolen credit card at an Oxnard outlet store.
By evening, Oxnard police said they had arrested four men, found a stolen pickup truck and recovered about $500 worth of clothing and tools believed to have been bought with purloined cards.
The first tip came when the Gap outlet store in Oxnard confiscated what they believed was a stolen credit card. Police arrived on the scene and arrested Alan Kenneth Lisle, 21, on suspicion of using the card, according to a police report.
Officers learned that other suspects had fled the scene in a light blue Isuzu pickup truck, earlier reported stolen. Police tracked the truck to Rio Mesa High School and arrested 18-year-old Paul Fenlon of Oxnard on suspicion of auto theft, the report said.
Later, police arrested 20-year-old twin brothers Jaime and Michael Nava of Oxnard on suspicion of a variety of charges, including concealing stolen property and carrying a loaded firearm in a vehicle. In the process, police said they recovered goods from the Gap, HomeBase and other stores, all believed to have been purchased with stolen cards.
