Semi-Truck & Trailer Thefts 

December 13, 2025 – Sutter County Sheriff's Office officials report that on August 3, 2025, deputies responded to a report of a stolen semi-truck and trailer from a lot on Larkin Road in Live Oak. The Woodland Police Department located the trailer abandoned and empty, originally said to be carrying about $400,000 worth of product. The Sacramento Police Department recovered the semi-truck in their jurisdiction.

On August 25, 2025, deputies responded to an attempted truck and trailer theft on Paseo Road. The suspects fled after being confronted by the vehicle owner. Based on suspect descriptions, deputies believed the same individuals were involved in both incidents and possibly other thefts in surrounding areas.

On November 25, 2025, detectives served search and arrest warrants at residences in Manteca and Sacramento. Karanjit Singh and Gautam Ajrawat were arrested for grand theft and conspiracy. Several illegal firearms, including a fully automatic AR-15 style rifle, were recovered from the residence in Manteca. All firearm-related charges were forwarded to the San Joaquin County District Attorney’s Office.

On December 9, 2025, Rajbir Singh was located and arrested with assistance from the Modesto Police Department. He was booked into the Stanislaus County Jail for grand theft and conspiracy. He is awaiting extradition to Sutter County.

The investigation remains ongoing.
