March 25, 2023 - San Bernardino Police Department officials reported that they have been combating gang activity.

Our MET Team with the assistance of the Western DROs teamed up to combat gang activity in the city. During this proactive enforcement, officers conducted a traffic stop on a vehicle. The driver failed to yield, and the occupants began to toss items out of the vehicle such as two firearms, fentanyl, and cocaine before they came to a stop. One occupant attempted to flee but was quickly taken into custody. All occupants were detained. K9 FALCO assisted in the swift recovery of the thrown items. During a further investigation, officers searched the vehicle and located additional narcotics, several handgun magazines, live ammunition, and expended casings.

All occupants were arrested and charged with multiple felonies. They were also identified as gang members.
