Yesterday (Thursday, June 25), three teenagers were arrested by Sacramento Police for firing pellet and BB guns at a UPS truck on Loggerhead Way (off Myotis Drive, just south of Hummingbird Park).
At the time of the incident, the UPS driver called his supervisor, who in turn told the driver to call 9-1-1.
Officer Natterbuck responded to the area and moments later and spotted the young men walking along Duckhorn Drive towards Atrium Court Apartments.
A 21-year-old male was arrested for California Penal Code 12556 which outlaws the open display of an imitation firearm in a public place (misdemeanor). He resides at the Serenade condominium complex on Regency Park Circle.
A 19-year-old male on searchable probation for felony burglary residing on Loggerhead Way was arrested for Sacramento City Code 9.32.070, which prohibits discharging of air guns in the city limits outside of a shooting gallery.
An 18-year-old male believed to reside at Atrium Court Apartments was also arrested for Sacramento City Code 9.32.070.
All of the alleged violations are misdemeanors, which means the subjects were cited and then released, not booked into the jail.
Residents are urged to be especially vigilant and to report all suspicious activities to Sacramento Police Department:
Emergencies: 9-1-1 from a land line or 916/732-0100 from a cell phone
Non-emergencies: 916/264-5471
