Two Redlands men were arrested Saturday after allegedly assaulting a man, stealing his phone, and attempting to break into his vehicle in a Rancho Cucamonga parking lot.
San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department deputies responded around 1:55 p.m. to reports of a fight in the 10400 block of Lemon Avenue.
When they arrived, the suspects had fled the scene in a vehicle but witnesses provided a description and a partial license plate number.
Deputies later located the unoccupied vehicle and saw two men, identified as Demarco Stone, 19, and Jerry Stone, 20, exiting a nearby apartment. Both suspects fled back inside, prompting deputies to call for additional resources as they urged the two men to surrender peacefully.
A search warrant was eventually issued, and deputies entered the apartment, taking both men into custody and recovering the stolen property.
The two were booked into the West Valley Detention Center on suspicion of robbery. Although the two share the same last name, their exact relationship was not disclosed by authorities.
