BAKERSFIELD, Calif.(KBAK\/KBFX) \u2014 Seven people were arrested last week in east Bakersfield after several community quality-of-life complaints were made by residents and local business owners, said Bakersfield police.<\/p>\n

On Nov. 6, 2025, BPD’s Impact Unit Officers conducted a targeted enforcement in the area of Oswell and Auburn streets, due to the surrounding neighbors and businesses reporting “open-air” drug use, illegal camping and loitering.<\/p>\n

The following people were arrested on outstanding warrants for several crimes:<\/p>\n

Kody Kutzkey, 36Cory Ringleman, 36Micah Lindley, 29Anna Marie Reynosa, 34Devin Dias, 35Taryn Craig, 27Ricky Thomas, 28<\/p>\n

The most serious crime was a parole violation for an assault causing great bodily injury.<\/p>\n

BPD said Impact officers’ primary service is to respond to quality-of-life calls for service. Their past year has focused on disrupting drug trafficking operations, reducing the visibility of dangerous substances, and overall improving the well-being of Bakersfield residents.<\/p>\n

“We are here to partner with community members and businesses who suffer damage and disruption when these types of behavior occur,\u201d stated Lieutenant Nicole Anderberg, who oversees the BPD\u2019s Impact Unit.<\/p>\n

In 2024, the department introduced the \u201cTrespass Enforcement Authorization” program to assist those who own or manage a business or property in Bakersfield.<\/p>\n

BPD said that after sending a form in the program, once an authorization form is submitted, officers can easily access the form to enforce common issues, including trespassing, camping, and loitering. Violators are also subject to arrest, even when the responsible owner is not present. The program is free.<\/p>\n
