Re: Ramiro Cabello III
Mark J. Becker, Chief of Police, East Chicago Police Department, today released the following information on behalf of the Region STOP Team;
On February 24, 2014, members of the Region STOP Team, based upon anonymous complaints concerning suspicious activity, approached a residence in the 3900 block of Parrish Avenue, East Chicago, Indiana.
The officers then came in contact with Ramiro Cabello III, 45 years of age, at which time the officers were able to detect a strong odor of marijuana. Upon questioning, Cabello admitted that he possessed some “bootleg movies” in the residence and also admitted to possessing marijuana. Cabello provided consent to search the residence, following which STOP Team officers located approximately 340 grams of marijuana and 1,140 bootleg DVD movies.
Cabello was taken into custody and charges are presently being pursued with the Lake County Prosecutors Office.
This arrest is yet another result stemming from the public’s cooperation with the Region STOP Team. The public is urged to contact the Region STOP Team at (219) 398-COPS
(219-398-2677)
