Suspects Arrested in Billy’s Board Shop Burglary

Glendale police responded to the 2200 block of Montrose Avenue on Saturday at about 3:15 a.m. When they arrived, they found Crescenta Valley Sheriff deputies detaining three suspects, later identified as an 18-year-old Palmdale man, an 18-year-old Pasadena man and a 17-year-old Montrose juvenile. CV deputies had initially responded to an apartment due to a call concerning a person who may be under the influence of drugs.

During the deputies’ investigation they discovered the juvenile, who was possibly under the influence, and a box with skateboards and shoes that appeared to have been stolen. The two other men were found in the area and were allegedly in possession of two skateboards and a hat that still had a bar code attached.

Glendale police went to nearby Billy’s Board Shop in the 2200 block of Honolulu Avenue and found the store had been broken into. A window had been smashed with what appeared to be a brick, which was lying on the ground.

The owner of the business was contacted and confirmed the items found in the possession of the three suspects were from his business.

The case is still under investigation. Anyone with information is asked to contact Glendale Police Department at (818) 548-4840.
