2 Suspects Arrested in Anaheim Burglary

Aided by a police helicopter, two Los Angeles County men were arrested early Sunday on suspicion of burglarizing an Anaheim embroidery company, police said.

Mario Ruiz Lopez, 24, of Wilmington, and Fernando Lopez Estrada, 20, of Lynwood, were being held into Anaheim City Jail on suspicion of commercial burglary, said a spokesman for the Anaheim Police Department. Bail was set at $10,000 for each man.

The incident began at 1:40 a.m. when the pilots of Angel, the Anaheim police helicopter, apparently saw a suspicious vehicle parked in the commercial area of Pacific Embroidery Co., in the 1100 block of Kraemer Boulevard, according to a police statement. When the two men left the building and got into the car, the helicopter pilots tracked them to an area near Center Street and Melrose Avenue in Placentia, where they parked and fled on foot.

Anaheim police, with help from Fullerton and Placentia officers, found the men a short time later and arrested them without further incident, according to the report. No information was available on what was stolen.
