Oxnard Police Department – Incident Press Release
On December 7, 2020, officers from the Oxnard Police Department responded to the 2000 block of Greencastle Way, regarding a burglary that had occurred at an occupied residence. It was learned the suspect entered the garage of the victim’s residence while they were sleeping and stole over $45,000 worth of property.
Property Crime Detectives, assigned to follow up on the burglary, developed information that led them to identify Port Hueneme resident Randy Jaramillo as the suspect involved. Detectives later contacted Jaramillo and found him in possession of some of the stolen property. Jaramillo then led detectives to more of the stolen property, which was seized and returned to the victim.
Detectives continued researching the case and were able to locate additional property. On January 5, 2021, after an in-depth investigation, Jaramillo was arrested for first-degree residential burglary. The majority of the stolen property was recovered and returned to the victim.
The Oxnard Police Department urges citizens to remember to:
- Always lock the doors to their residences and vehicles;
