Four Arrested After Attempting to Sell Stolen Items

VICTORVILLE – Four were arrested after vehicle burglary victims located their stolen items for sale on a sales app. On December 19, 2018, at around 1:30 p.m., deputies were dispatched to a report of a vehicle burglary in the 1300 block of Anchor Drive in Spring Valley Lake.
