Possession of a Controlled Substance / Possession of Drug Paraphernalia – Suspect Arrested

October 29 at 3:04 p.m., officers responded to a park in the 400 block of South California on the 
report of several male subjects in the park involved in drug activity. After investigation, officers arrested 
one male suspect who was found to be in possession of a glass pipe and methamphetamine.

Hot Prowl Residential Burglary

October 30 at 11:45 p.m., officers were dispatched to a residence in the 500 block of North Alta Vista 
regarding a hot prowl burglary that just occurred. The owners of the residence were away from the 
location at the time of the burglary and a housekeeper was home, asleep inside one of the bedrooms. 
She was awakened by two male Black suspects that came into the room. When the suspects saw her, 
they ran out the backdoor of the residence. The housekeeper called the homeowners, and there was 
an approximate twenty minute delay until the owners arrived home and called the police. Officers 
responded and the area was searched, but no suspects were located. A rock had been thrown through 
the backdoor window to gain entry to the home. The investigation is continuing. 

Stop Graffiti Bounty Program

One of the methods the Monrovia Police Department is using to combat graffiti in the community 
of Monrovia is the Stop Graffiti Bounty Program. If a citizen reports an incident of graffiti in the 
City of Monrovia that leads to the arrest of the suspect, the citizen will receive a $100 bill. Help keep 
Monrovia looking great!
