Yolo Mom, Son Arrested For Burglary and Meth Possession
The victim received text alerts each time her debit card was used by the thieves.

A woman who had just been robbed in Sacramento received an automated text message that her debit card was being used at a Shell station in West Sacramento. She informed the Yolo County Sheriff's Department. Here's their story:
One deputy responded to contact the victim, while another deputy responded to the Shell on West Capitol Avenue. The suspects were gone by the time the deputy arrived, but the suspect’s vehicle was described as possibly being white.
Moments later, the victim got another text that the card was being used at the O’Reilly Auto Parts down the street from the Shell. The deputy with the victim radioed the information to the other deputy who responded to the auto parts store. When the deputy went in to ask the clerk who just used an ATM card, the clerk pointed out a female who then ran from the store to a waiting car. The girl jumped into the back seat, where one of the male suspects was sitting, but the driver saw the deputy walk into the store and took off running while the deputy was inside the store. The deputy subsequently arrested the male passenger and the female who ran from the store.
