On 10/09/2025, around 9:15 AM, patrol deputies from the Sheriff’s Fillmore Station carried out a probation search at a residence on the 100 block of Santa Clara Street in Fillmore as part of proactive patrol efforts.

During the search, deputies contacted two residents, identified as Kyle Miller and Talysa Ray, who were suspected of being under the influence of a controlled substance. After an investigation, both Miller and Ray were arrested for misdemeanor drug-related charges.

While searching the residence, deputies also located several handguns and two rifles. One of the rifles met the legal criteria, classifying it as an illegal assault weapon. As a result, Kyle Miller was additionally arrested for felony weapons violations to include, Penal Code § 30605(a) – [Possession of an Assault Weapon], Penal Code § 32310 – [Possession of Large Capacity Magazine], Penal Code § 29800(a)(1) – [Addict in Possession of Firearm], and Penal Code 30305(a)(1) § – [Prohibited Person in Possession of Ammunition].

Both suspects were transported and booked at the Ventura County Jail pending court proceedings. The case remains under investigation by the Fillmore Station’s patrol and investigative units.
