CHINO: A Chino man was arrested Wednesday after posting stolen items for sale on eBay.

On January 3, 2014, Chino Hills deputies received information that a person was selling stolen items on eBay from a recent Chino Hills residential burglary. Deputies and detectives initiated a follow-up investigation and a buy was conducted with the suspected eBay seller.

The property purchased from the eBay seller was confirmed to be a stolen camera lens from a recent Chino Hills residential burglary.

Deputies and detectives identified the eBay seller as Donald Ming Hwang, 41, Chino, California and authored a search warrant for Hwang’s residence. Hwang was arrested as he left his residence on January 8, 2014.
