橙县警长破获大型催化转化器盗窃团伙：查获约2,400件、估值430万美元 5人被捕
橙县警长办公室宣布，执法人员9月3日与多个协作机构执行多份搜查令，捣毁一个大型催化转化器盗窃团伙。此案源于为期三个月的调查，由警长办公室北区调查组与北区定向执法队主导，把北橙县多市发生的一系列催化转化器盗窃案与一个从事盗窃、拆解、转运与收购的组织联系起来。
搜查令在橙县与洛杉矶县两地执行，5名嫌疑人被捕。执法人员查获约2,400件涉嫌被盗的催化转化器，估计总价值430万美元；另查获多个装有贵金属的大型运输箱、两支未登记枪支与超过105,000美元现金。
警长办公室公布，被捕者为 Maywood 居民 Jorge Alberto Delgadillo（35岁）、洛杉矶居民 Julio Moreno Reyes（40岁）与 Gilberto Valdovino（27岁）、Brayan CruzDeLeon（20岁），以及 Compton 居民 Hugo SaenzMarin（24岁）；五人均以涉嫌重大盗窃与共谋犯罪被收押。案件后续由检方与法院处理。
OC Sheriff Dismantles Catalytic Converter Theft Ring: About 2,400 Converters Worth $4.3 Million Recovered, Five Arrested
The Orange County Sheriff's Department has announced that on September 3, deputies and assisting agencies served multiple search warrants and dismantled a significant catalytic converter theft ring, culminating a three-month investigation by the North Investigations Unit and the North Directed Enforcement Team. The investigation linked a series of catalytic converter thefts across several north Orange County cities to an organization involved in the theft, dismantling, transfer and purchasing of the components.
Search warrants were executed in both Orange County and Los Angeles County, and five suspects were arrested. Authorities recovered approximately 2,400 suspected stolen catalytic converters with an estimated total value of $4.3 million, along with several large shipping boxes containing precious metals, two unregistered firearms and more than $105,000 in cash.
The Sheriff's Department identified those arrested as Jorge Alberto Delgadillo, 35, of Maywood; Julio Moreno Reyes, 40, of Los Angeles; Gilberto Valdovino, 27, of Los Angeles; Brayan CruzDeLeon, 20, of Los Angeles; and Hugo SaenzMarin, 24, of Compton. All five were booked on suspicion of grand theft and conspiracy to commit a crime.
