On the afternoon of September 26, 2009, members of the Fillmore Police and Sheriff’s Gang Units went to a residence located in the 800 Block of Edison Lane in the City of Fillmore in search of a known Fillmore gang member wanted on an outstanding arrest warrant.

The officers located and arrested a seventeen year-old Fillmore gang member wanted on a juvenile arrest warrant without incident. The minor was not the intended focus of the search.
