Four suspects in Irvine were arrested on narcotics and theft charges

Last week, Special Investigations Unit (SIU) Detectives arrested four suspects involved in narcotic sales, according to the Irvine Police Department.

The complex operation involved a two-car take-down and the search of multiple hotel rooms where the suspects were staying.

Through their investigation, SIU Detectives recovered fentanyl, methamphetamine, $10,840 in U.S. currency, and a motorcycle that was stolen from Irvine last month by one of the four suspects.

All four were booked on multiple counts of narcotics charges and one additional charge of possession of a stolen motorcycle.
