Four people have been arrested in connection to a string of burglaries at numerous fire stations in Shasta and Tehama counties last month, according to the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection. Items were stolen from a Cal Fire station in Whitmore and two in Tehama County, the Baker and Red Bank stations.
On March 9 Cal Fire officials found that someone had used bolt cutters to break into the Buckhorn fire station in Whitmore and steal several items. A car with four people was observed on security cameras. Â
In the days following the burglary, Cal Fire law enforcement officers saw some of the items had been placed for sale online, and an undercover operation was set up to purchase the items.
