There had been multiple vehicle burglaries in that area during the month of March. One of the most recent occurred on 3-31-2025 when the victim returned to their car after using the trail to discover the front and rear passenger windows had been broken out and their wallet and credit cards had been stolen. While the victim was speaking with Deputies, they received an alert that one of the credit cards had been used at two different stores. One purchase, which was declined, was for over $500. The other purchase went through for more than $300.
Deputies were able to identify a suspect vehicle which was believed to be connected to numerous burglaries at the Bob Jones Trail parking lot. Patrol Deputies also obtained video surveillance footage of a male and female suspect from one of the burglaries which Sheriff's Detectives later used for identification purposes. A Sheriff's Office Forensic Specialist also assisted in identifying the male suspect.
Also, the suspects were connected to a vehicle burglary at the Pismo Preserve on 4-10-2025 and several vehicle burglaries in Nipomo during the early morning hours of 4-11-2025.
The suspects were identified as 37-year-old Carlin Mount and 33-year-old Alisha Sherell. Those suspects were later located at a motel in Santa Maria and taken into custody. Stolen property was located in Santa Maria and recovered by deputies which was linked to the burglaries in Nipomo.
Mount and Sherrell were arrested for burglary and ID theft charges and booked into County Jail.
