San Bernardino Police Department investigators have been following up on leads pertaining to the looting that took place on the evening of 05/31/20 and into the morning of 06/01/20.

On 06/01/2020, numerous businesses within the City of San Bernardino were damaged. Terion Alexander Jr. (DOB of 01/05/99) AKA Tayy Alexander, was observed VIA Facebook LIVE participating in the looting. The live video feed was open to the general-public and it showed Alexander and possibly three other subjects (un-named at this time) proceed to the Valero Gasoline Station located at 1055 N Waterman Avenue. Alexander and his associates were seen looting and removing the property from the business. Alexander was also seen vandalizing the Wienerschnitzel restaurant across the street at 1102 N Waterman Ave.

Members from the community provided tips to investigators, which assisted with identifying Alexander. District Crimes Detectives obtained a Ramey Warrant for Alexander, and on 06/11/20, Alexander was located and placed under arrest for his outstanding warrant.

Alexander was interviewed by District Crimes Detectives and admitted to his involvement in the crimes that occurred on 06/01/20. He was later booked and lodged at a local jail facility.

The City of San Bernardino was severely impacted by the looting that occurred during the civil unrest, and our investigative teams are working tirelessly to solve as many cases as possible. If you have any additional information which can help solve these crimes, please reach out to our District Crimes Detectives at lootingtips@sbcity.org.
