SGV parole sweep nets 7 arrests, mainly in Baldwin Park

BALDWIN PARK — Law enforcement officials arrested seven parolees Thursday during an early-morning parole sweep in Baldwin Park and La Puente, authorities said.
Law enforcement agencies from throughout the San Gabriel Valley joined Baldwin Park police, who spearheaded the effort, Baldwin Park police Lt. Joseph Bartolotti said.
Six of the men were arrested at their homes in Baldwin Park, while the seventh was arrested at his home in La Puente, the lieutenant said. The operation targeted 30 locations in San Gabriel Valley, primarily in the areas in and around Baldwin Park.
At the request of parole officials, he said, police declined to release the names of those arrested Thursday.
Three of the men were arrested due to open weapons and narcotics charges, police said, while four were jailed on suspicion of violating parole.
The sweep targeted parolees in general, and not any specific gang, group or crime trend, Bartolotti said.
