An Oakland man was arrested Sunday after he was allegedly found driving one of five vehicles stolen from an Alameda County-owned parking garage.<\/p>\n
Darryl Roach, 56, was arrested at about 10:30 a.m. Sunday, just a few hours after it was discovered that someone had broken into the garage in Oakland and absconded with two Sheriff’s Office vehicles.<\/p>\n
Also missing were two vehicles belonging to other county agencies and one owned by a rental car company, according to the Sheriff’s Office.<\/p>\n
Soon after information about the missing vehicles was shared with local law enforcement agencies, a sheriff’s deputy working for the Alameda-Contra Costa Transit bus system found one of the vehicles being driven in Oakland.<\/p>\n
“Deputies conducted a high-risk traffic stop and detained the driver, who was the sole occupant of the vehicle,” according to the Sheriff’s Office.<\/p>\n
Roach was arrested on suspicion of possessing a stolen vehicle, as well as a special allegation of committing a crime while out on bail.<\/p>\n
The other four vehicles were all rounded up within a one-and-a-half-mile radius of the parking garage by about 4 p.m. Sunday.<\/p>\n
Investigators aren’t yet sure if Roach took all the vehicles by himself or if there are other people involved.<\/p>\n
He is being held at Santa Rita Jail on $60,000 bail and is scheduled to be arraigned in Alameda County Superior Court on Wednesday, according to jail records.<\/p>\n
“The Sheriff’s Office is reviewing security protocols in place at the facility and will make recommendations to help prevent unauthorized persons from accessing county property,” Sheriff’s Office officials said.<\/p>\n
Anyone with information can call the Sheriff’s Office at (510) 667-7721.<\/p>\n
