2 suspects arrested for hate crime attacks in San Bernardino County
The suspects were identified as Michael Razo, 22, of Highland and Humberto Silva, 24, of Colton, according to the Fontana Police Department.
Officers have been working with the Fontana Sheriff's Station for several months to investigate the incidents.
In each case, the pair allegedly targeted homeless victims at bus stops. They would pull up in a blue Chevrolet Silverado truck and shoot at the victims with a paintball gun while screaming racial slurs. In several incidents, the victims were injured, police said.
On Aug. 19, both suspects were located and arrested for assault with a deadly weapon and a hate crime enhancement. Search warrants were served at their residences where evidence related to the crimes was found.
'We believe there may be additional victims and we ask you to come forward to report these incidents to us,' the police department said.
Anyone who may have been a victim or has additional information is asked to call Fontana police at 909-350-7700.

Man arrested for WNBA sex-toy throwing at Liberty game, the 3rd arrest in string of disturbances
NEW YORK (AP) — An Ohio man has been arrested for the throwing of a sex toy at a WNBA game in New York, police said Thursday. It's the latest development in a string of disturbances where similar toys were tossed at WNBA games across the country, resulting in at least three arrests. Charles Burgess, 32, from Dayton, Ohio, was arrested Wednesday for allegedly throwing an object at the Dallas Wings vs. New York Liberty game on Aug. 5, New York police told The Associated Press. The object hit a 12-year-old girl, and Burgess was charged with two counts of assault. It wasn't immediately clear whether Burgess had an attorney. Similar disturbances happened during games in Atlanta on July 29 and Aug. 1, Los Angeles and Phoenix on Aug. 5, and Chicago on Aug. 1 and Aug. 7. Some of the sex toys reached the court and caused game delays, while others landed in the crowds, such as in Phoenix where an 18-year-old was arrested. The man in that case told police it was a prank that had been trending on social media and he bought the toy a day earlier to take to the game. He was tackled at the arena by a volunteer who had allegedly witnessed him throwing it and began following him as he tried to leave the arena. Police have said that man was arrested on suspicion of assault, disorderly conduct and publicly displaying explicit sexual material. A man was also arrested in Georgia for the two toy-throwings at Atlanta Dream games, according to a police report. He is charged with disorderly conduct, criminal trespassing, public indecency and indecent exposure. All four charges are misdemeanors in the state of Georgia, meaning that if he is convicted, the punishment for each can be a fine of up to $1,000 or jail time of up to 12 months. A misdemeanor for public indecency and indecent exposure may also require registration on the state's sex offender list. The report said the Georgia man told police 'this was supposed to be a joke and the joke (was) supposed to go viral.' The sex toy that landed on the court in Los Angeles nearly hit Indiana Fever guard Sophie Cunningham. League officials have said any person throwing objects onto the court will be ejected from the arena and face a minimum one-year ban from attending games. Media reports on the disturbances have tied the toy-throwings to a group involved in a related Cryptocurrency meme coin. ___ AP WNBA:

Wisconsin court commissioner resigns after dispute over immigration warrant
MADISON, Wis. (AP) — A Wisconsin court commissioner has resigned from his job after he asked to see an immigration arrest warrant, the latest conflict between judges and President Donald Trump's administration over the Republican's sweeping immigration crackdown. Peter Navis, who worked as a Walworth County Court Commissioner for four years, resigned from his position last month, county clerk Michelle Jacobs said Thursday. She declined to comment further because it is a personnel matter. The incident that cost Navis his job happened on July 15. It was first reported on Thursday by the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. The blowup in Navis' courtroom comes after Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Hannah Dugan was charged in May with obstructing federal officers and attempting to hide a person to avoid arrest. Authorities said Dugan tried to help a man who is in the country illegally evade U.S. immigration agents who wanted to arrest him in her courthouse. Dugan is seeking to have the charges against her dropped, arguing that she was acting in her official capacity as a judge and therefore is immune to prosecution. A ruling on that motion by U.S. District Judge Lynn Adelman is pending. Navis was presiding in his courtroom that day in the case of Enrrique Onan Zamora Castro, of Milwaukee, who faced a misdemeanor charge of operating a vehicle without a valid driver's license for the second time in three years. A court transcript shows that Navis objected to sheriff's deputies attempting to detain Castro on behalf of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE, without a valid federal warrant. 'In my courtroom, a person cannot be detained without lawful authority,' Navis said in the transcript. The prosecutor, Assistant District Attorney Andrew Herrmann, said Navis had no right to see the warrant, according to the transcript. Herrmann did not respond to a voicemail seeking comment. According to the transcript, Navis said, 'I've been instructed by the judges of this county to require warrants before individuals are detained in my courtroom.' None of the four Walworth County judges returned emails seeking comment. Walworth County Clerk of Courts Michele Jacobs said deputies routinely arrest people on warrants in the courthouse. Walworth County Sheriff Dave Gerber and ICE officials did not respond to email messages seeking comment. Walworth County, home to about 100,000 people, is in south-central Wisconsin along the Illinois border. Trump won the county with about 60% of the vote in November. Solve the daily Crossword

Volunteers suspend Ruby Whitehorn indefinitely nearly 2 weeks after arrest
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — The Tennessee Volunteers have suspended fourth-year guard Ruby Whitehorn indefinitely following her recent arrest on felony charges of domestic assault and aggravated burglary. Last week, Whitehorn's attorney, Gregory P. Isaacs, said Whitehorn will plead not guilty at her preliminary hearing on Sept. 5. 'She is suspended indefinitely and is not participating in team activities," an athletic department spokesman said in an email to The Associated Press on Thursday. The 6-foot player from Detroit was arrested Aug. 8 after the Knox County Sherriff's Office responded to a call around 4:15 p.m. According to reports, police said Whitehorn got into an altercation outside a woman's residence and kicked in a front door and bedroom door. Whitehorn reportedly told officers she was getting her property back after the woman took her phone and passport and then locked the door. 'Our firm's investigation has also revealed that the factual allegations contained in the warrants are not accurate and are contradicted by eyewitness accounts," Isaacs said in last week's statement. "Ruby Whitehorn looks forward to having this matter resolved in the very near future.' Whitehorn started 28 of 34 games last season for the Lady Vols and ranked fourth in scoring with 11.6 points a game. She also had four rebounds per game. She began her career at Clemson where she started 62 of the 66 games. She helped Tennessee go 24-10 in coach Kim Caldwell's debut season. The Lady Vols lost to Texas in the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament. ___ Get poll alerts and updates on the AP Top 25 throughout the season. Sign up here. AP women's college basketball: and
