"A sixth suspect was simultaneously arrested in South Los Angeles."
Twenty-year-old Wendy Cerritos and 21-year-old Rossel Josue Hernandez, both Los Angeles residents, were charged with four counts and two counts respectively, of robbery with handgun allegations, according to police. Bail was set at $300,000 for Cerritos and $150,000 for Hernandez. Members of the Pasadena Police Department's Robbery-Homicide Unit "are confident that the evidence recovered, and the facts obtained thus far in their investigation connect a specific criminal street gang to murders and other violent crimes that have occurred in Los Angeles County over the last week," the statement said.
