Details:
On Sunday, March 26, 2023, at 05:59 A.M., deputies from the Perris Station responded to a suspicious person call in the 22000 Block of Cajalco Road, in Mead Valley; where a subject was disoriented and bleeding from the head. The subject was located and transported to a local hospital. The victim told deputies he was driving his friend’s black 2008 Saturn Vue when he gave two unknown male subjects a ride. The two subjects assaulted him, fired a round from a sawed off shotgun, and stole the vehicle. Prior to the assault, deputies learned they drove to a local convenience store where one of the subjects got out and went inside before returning. The vehicle was later recovered in the city of Moreno Valley. The Perris Station’s Robbery Burglary Suppression Team (RBST) assumed the investigation and obtained the video surveillance from the convenience store. With the help from the Gang Task Force and the Moreno Valley Gang Team, both suspects were identified as Anthony Atilano (28-year-old of Moreno Valley) and Daniel Quevedo (29-year-old of Moreno Valley).
On Sunday, April 2, 2023, at 1:00 P.M., deputies from the Jurupa Valley Station’s Special enforcement Team (JVS SET) were conducting a separate investigation at a residence in the 18000 Block of Haines Street, in the city of Perris. JVS SET deputies located Anthony Atilano during their investigation and detained him for Perris RBST. Shortly after, JVS SET deputies obtained information on their suspect and responded to a motel located in the 3000 block of La Sierra Avenue, in the city of Riverside. JVS SET deputies located the suspect in their case along with Daniel Quevedo in room 242. Perris RBST authored and served a search warrant at the hotel room and located evidence of the carjacking crime including the sawed off shotgun. Both Atilano and Quevedo were interviewed and later transported and booked into jail for multiple felony charges. This investigation is on-going.
Anyone with additional information is urged to call RBST Investigator Rooker at Riverside County Sheriff’s dispatch at (951) 776–1099, or the Perris Station at (951) 210–1000.
