Arrests Tied to Day-Old Burglary
Four transients were arrested last Saturday allegedly in possession of checks reported missing in a burglary of a Catalina Street home the day before, police said.
Officers found one woman and three men sleeping in the 1200 block of Ocean Front Street in a vacant home where the lock and windows were broken, Sgt. Louise Callus said. Though the occupants denied responsibility for the damage, saying the home is a known hang-out when the shelter is full, the owner agreed to seek criminal trespassing charges against the foursome, she said.
In addition, Pamela Rosenthal, 43, of Laguna Beach, and Justin D. Wilson, 24, of Mission Viejo, were both arrested for suspicion of forgery and receiving stolen property charges after an investigation turned up checks in their possession taken in a residential break-in. On Friday morning, a homeowner in the 800 block of Catalina Street discovered thieves had made off with $3,000 in personal property. Rosenthal admitted writing a check to Wilson, who had cashed it, police said. Bail for the pair was set at $20,000 each.
