According to YCPD, while the officer was patrolling the area, he saw three subjects standing near a community mailbox. The officer decided to go and investigate what was happening.
The officer realized that none of the three subjects lived in the area and had been traveling from the Fresno area, says YCPD.
YCPD says that one of the subjects was on Post-Relase Community Supervision and all of them were associated with a vehicle that was close by. The officer per PRCS searched the vehicle and found almost 200 pieces of stolen mail which all belonged to the residents of the Regency Park area.

At this time, the three suspects have been arrested and booked into the Sutter County Jail under suspicion of:
Attempted Identity Theft
Mail Theft
As of 9:30 p.m., the investigation remains active, and additional charges are pending.
YCPD said, 'This was a great proactive investigation by Officer Morris which prevented further victimization of Yuba City residents. One of the most common motivations to commit mail theft is to use the stolen information to commit Identity Theft.'
