Detectives from the Glendale Police Department have identified and arrested four suspects linked to two street robberies that occurred in Glendale on the night of October 21, 2015.

Surveillance cameras from businesses within the areas of the robberies helped detectives identify the vehicle and license plate that was associated with the suspects.

On December 21, 2015, Glendale officers who are members of the US Marshals Task Force, located and arrested the registered owner of the suspect vehicle, Yldefonso Rodriguez of Los Angeles.

Through the course of their investigation, detectives identified a second suspect as Carlos Rodriguez, an associate of Yldefonso Rodriguez.  The US Marshals Task Force arrested Carlos Rodriguez from his home in Los Angeles on January 26, 2016.

The two additional suspects that were captured on surveillance footage remained unidentified until officers from Whittier Police Department recognized them from watching the footage.  Those suspects were identified as Mario Labelle and Rachel Montelongo, both from Los Angeles.

Glendale detectives learned Labelle and Montelongo were already in custody for an unrelated crime that occurred in the City of Alhambra.

All four suspects have confessed to the two robberies that occurred in Glendale but detectives believe they may be involved in additional robberies.  Anyone with information is asked to contact the Glendale Police Department at 818-548-4911.
