On Wednesday, a Spectrum officer saw a suspicious vehicle parked near LuluLemon. He quickly determined the car had been associated with previous theft and narcotics incidents.

Gerson Vargas, 32, of Norwalk, and Diego Alberto Franco, 29, of Santa Ana, were detained when they returned to the car. A search revealed both were carryin

Last Thursday, an officer saw two vehicles driving at high speeds on Irvine Blvd while swerving around other vehicles and nearly colliding. The officer pulled over both vehicles and detained the drivers. Two men, aged 19 and 20, from Irvine, were arrested for reckless driving. Both vehicles were impounded for 30 days. Reckless driving puts innocent lives at risk. If you ever see anyone driving unsafely, call our police department. Let’s make our roads safe together. #dontcommitcrimeinirvine #irv

Directed Enforcement Team (DET) officers recently contacted a man riding a bike near Jamboree and Barranca. The rider had multiple syringes loaded with narcotics. Officers determined the bike he was riding was stolen last year in our city. So the evening ended happily for the bike owner who got their bike back and sadly for the man who earned a stay at Orange County Jail. #dontcommitcrimeinirvine #irvine #irvinepolice #irvinepd #police #lawenforcement #cityofirvine #orangecounty #policeofficer #
