"This evidence, combined with the finding of freshly disturbed dirt in a planter in the cul-de-sac, led Glendale detectives to believe that the suspects had strategically placed the camera in the planter. This method allowed them to create a sophisticated method to gain a view of residences and know when homeowners would leave," police added.
Detectives identified the suspects as 28-year-old Bryan Martinez Vargas, 28-year-old Jose Antonio Velasquez, 27-year-old Edison Arley Pinzon Fandino, and 29-year-old Luis Moreno. According to police, officers responded around 3:30 p.m. that afternoon to the 4300 block of Boston Avenue on reports of a residential burglary in progress. Officers saw Vargas and Guanume leaving the area in a gray Toyota. The suspects were eventually located by other officers on the 2 Freeway, prompting a pursuit, police said.The suspects drove eastbound on the 134 Freeway and attempted to exit at Figueroa Street but could not negotiate the off-ramp turn.
