DIAMOND BAR - Three suspects accused of being part of a home invasion robbery crew were arrested after authorities fanned out across three counties to arrest them.

Rynell Verdin, Arturo Gonzalez, and Mattron Brown were all taken into custody Wednesday, April 5, after detectives from the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department Major Crimes Bureau wrote a search warrant to arrest each suspect at their homes in Los Angeles, Orange, and San Bernardino counties.

Approximately $17,000 cash, three illegally-possessed firearms, personal items belonging to the victims, as well clothing and ski masks worn during the robbery were recovered, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department.

The home invasion robbery occurred in Diamond Bar. A married couple were forced into the living room at gunpoint. Shirts were placed over their heads while the suspects took more than $22,000 in cash and property. The suspects fled in a black Acura, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department.

“The investigation is ongoing in order to determine if this robbery crew is related to other home invasion robberies that have recently occurred in the Southern California Area,” according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department in a written statement.

All three suspects are being held without bail ahead of a scheduled appearance in the Pomona courthouse Friday, April 7.
