On Sunday, February 8, 2015, at approximately 5pm, an alert patrol deputy arrested Daniel Freitas for commercial burglary at the scene of a construction site storage trailer.

The deputy was on patrol Sunday near a construction site in the 200 block of Edgewood Drive when he observed Freitas involved in suspicious behavior. Freitas was wearing a hard hat and a yellow vest and appeared to be covering property with a tarp just outside a storage building. Upon making contact with Freitas to investigate the circumstances, the deputy discovered the storage building had been forced open and thousands of dollars in tools removed. Freitas was attempting to conceal the tools then return later and collect them.

Freitas was arrested for commercial burglary and booked into the Ventura County Main Jail. His bail was set at $70,000.
