Modesto police arrest 4 suspects linked to attempted Union City home invasion

Four suspects, three juveniles and one adult, were arrested in Modesto after an attempted home invasion, and investigators say they may also be connected to a similar incident last week in Union City.

In an Instagram post Thursday, Modesto police said that officers and detectives took the suspects, ages 14 to 17 and a 22-year-old Stockton man, into custody after a pursuit. Multiple firearms were recovered.

Investigators linked the group to an attempted home invasion in Union City last week, where the same vehicle was seen in a social media video, authorities said.

In that earlier incident, a girl spotted “several armed suspects” outside her family’s home in the 30900 block of Tidewater Drive around 7:45 a.m. and quickly alerted relatives, Union City police said. The family called 911, scaring the suspects off before they could enter. Security cameras captured the incident, and video clips were widely shared on social media.

Police described the suspects as four males wearing masks and hoodies, at least two of them armed with pistols, who fled in a white Ford Taurus.
