Antioch Police: 25-Arrests Made During Warrant Sweep and Sex Registrant Compliance Operation

by ECT

The Antioch Police Department announced Wednesday that between Sept. 26-28 that a joint operation netted 25-arrests during a felony warrant sweep and sex registrant compliance operation around East Contra Costa County.

Antioch Police officers and detectives worked in partnership with members of the United States Marshals Service, Federal Bureau of Investigations, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, San Francisco Police Department, Contra Costa County Sheriff’s Office, California Highway Patrol, Department of State, California Department of Corrections, Contra Costa County Probation, Pittsburg Police Department, and High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area (HIDTA).

This multi-agency event consisted of two parts: the first (two day) part of the operation was focused on serving outstanding, felony arrest warrants, and the second (one day) part was devoted to sex registrant address verifications and compliance checks.

The event went from the early morning hours into the afternoon each day and yielded a total 25 arrests for charges ranging from fugitive warrants to weapons charges. In addition to these arrests, one loaded firearm was seized during this operation and over five dozen sex offender address verifications were conducted. This was a cooperative effort intended to bring known and suspected offenders into custody and help further ensure the safety of this and our surrounding communities.

No additional information concerning this operation will be released at this time.

How did Antioch become the dumping grounds for fugitive criminals and ex cons?

Lots of section 8 housing, city leaders that look the other way, businesses and schools that cater to dumb ass criminals. Free handouts at the fair. You name it Antioch offers it to the ghetto.
