The very same day, Sheriff’s Central Station Detectives received a phone call from a concerned citizen who saw the story on social media. The informant referenced the possible location of the two stolen parrots.
The information led investigators to the 170 block of E. 9th Street in San Bernardino. During contact at this address, they spoke with Yesenia Castro and recovered on of the stolen birds, subsequently arresting Castro for further questioning.
The investigation led to another address in Bloomington where the second parrot “Fred” was recovered and another suspect, Fabian Constantino, was placed under arrest and transported along with Castro to the Central station for interviews.
As a result of their interviews, both were arrested for PC487 and booked into the Central Detention Center without incident.
The owners were thrilled to be reunited their pets. Both parrots were unharmed and are going well.
