TWO ARRESTED AND ARE NOW UNDER IMMIGRATION HOLDS

The Daily Pilot is reporting today (Sunday, 1/14) that Jose Manuel Lopez was arrested Friday after allegedly trying to enter an apartment on Shalimar with two knives on him. He is now in jail with an ICE hold on him.

The Pilot is also reporting that Julio Rozas was arrested on suspicion of drunk driving and hit-and-run after Rozas allegedly hit a parked car in the Memphis Bar parking lot on Saturday. There is an ICE hold on Rozas.

No doubt, our fictional group, LOCA (Leave Our Criminals Alone--see # 52), would not like the fact that the cops arrested these two for these two alleged "minor" things.

The usual whine is that arresting people and having ICE check on them scares the community in Costa Mesa.

"Hey, we thought the cops were only going to arrest people and have them checked by ICE for serious crimes. These guys didn't kill 50 or 60 people so they didn't do anything seriously wrong," said a spokesperson for LOCA.
