Officer Greene and Corporal Garcia contacted Jasmine Castillo about a suspicious vehicle at 801 West Valencia.
Greene and Garcia made the arrest of Castillo who had a $25,000 warrant out of Huntington Beach — one of three notable arrests they made that shift.
Officer Bak and Corporal Radus arrested Omar Velez, who had a one million dollar warrant for his arrest for robbery as a member of a local gang.

Families from Fullerton’s Rock Harbor Church visited the Department to thank Officers and other personnel for their service Saturday evening. Brownies, cookies, and other goodies were served with hand-written thank you notes to the men and women responsible for keeping the peace in their community. Officials appreciated the gesture for what has been called a “thankless job.”
That night, Fullerton PD got back to business with a call that involved a fight between a male and female at 245 W. Elm. Officers arrived to find both parties had fled the scene.
Officer San Angelo tried to contact those still in the house about the call but were met with little cooperation. A mother and her two adult children tried to prevent the officers from entering the house and were eventually arrested for obstruction of justice.
The night rounded out with a fight involving approximately 20 people. Gang members were said to have instigated the brawl. Officers Bak and Murphy and Corporal Song responded to the incident and made the resulting arrests.
The investigation is still underway to determine who started the altercation.
