Police: Mom brought 6-week-old baby along on burglary

Deputies arrest three; child turned over to grandmother

STAFF WRITER

San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department deputies arrested three people for allegedly stealing from Target -- one of whom had brought along her six-week-old child.

Shortly after noon on Thursday, deputies responded to the Target store on the 12700 block of Main Street, where store security had two people -- Alexandria Lynn Webster, 19, and Joshua Michael Ferriera, 19, both of Barstow -- in custody for allegedly attempting to steal from the store. A third suspect -- Gabriel Michael Ferriera, 18, of Menifee -- had fled the store but was located soon thereafter by a deputy.

Webster and Joshua Ferriera have allegedly stolen from the store before, according to the department.

All three suspects were taken to the Hesperia station. Webster's six-week-old child was with her at the time of the arrest, and the child was turned over to its grandmother.

A search warrant was obtained for Webster's Barstow home and property from the previous Target robbery was reportedly recovered.

All three suspects were booked into Victor Valley Jail on burglary charges.

Anyone with information regarding this case is asked to call the Hesperia station at 947-1549 or the anonymous WE TIP line at (800) 782-7463.

I guess they already spent their welfare check so that is why they are stealing.

Beau, not that it matters, but which is it? 6 month old or 6 week old. Story and headline had conflicting ages. Thought you'd like to know.
