Sheriff’s deputies have arrested two Simi Valley men on suspicion of burglarizing 19 vehicles in eastern Ventura County this summer.

Javier Arraiga and Jose Luis Garcia, both 18, of 2127 Cochran St. were booked into Ventura County Jail on $20,000 bail with arraignment scheduled Thursday, officials said.

The men were linked to the burglaries when detectives recovered Arraiga’s fingerprints from a burglarized car in Moorpark, authorities said.
