SAN LEANDRO, CA — Four suspects have been arrested in connection with home-invasion robbery and a string of burglaries, San Leandro police announced Thursday.

Officers responded to a home in the 14700 block of Bancroft Avenue just after 5 a.m. on May 4, where two masked suspects allegedly forced three victims into a bedroom before stealing electronics, cash and a 2025 Tesla Model Y. The stolen vehicle was later found abandoned, police said.
Detectives identified the robbery suspects as Isaiah Ruiz-Sandoval, 24, and Isaias Jimenez-Garcia, 20, both of Oakland. Arrest warrants were issued.

On Wednesday, investigators tracked Ruiz-Sandoval and associate Julian Solorio, 25, of San Francisco, as they traveled through Oakland when Solorio was reportedly seen committing multiple auto burglaries, police said.
