3 accused of burglarizing S. Tahoe businesses
Three Bay Area men were arrested early Wednesday morning in South Lake Tahoe on burglary charges.
An alarm went off at Tahoe Keys Liquor about 1am March 4. Two people were inside the store when a police officer arrived. The glass on the front door had been smashed.
An El Dorado County sheriff’s deputy stopped a third suspect who was trying to leave in a vehicle. Detectives are still determining what if anything was stolen.
Arrested were Lorenzo Jackson, 20, of Antioch; Shayan Taghi, 20, from San Ramon; and Ryan Mello, 21, of San Lorenzo. All three were arrested on burglary and conspiracy charges. Taghi was also charged with vehicle theft because because the vehicle he was in had been reported stolen.
Officers are also investigating a second burglary that occurred at American Gas on Emerald Bay Road before the Tahoe Keys Liquor burglary. A general description of the American Gas suspects is similar to the suspects arrested in the Tahoe Keys Liquor burglary, officers said.
These incidents are not related to the rash of burglaries in late October at the Y, according to officers.

Great work guys ! Lock them up,throw away the key.
More pukes from the Bay Area!
Caught in the act of their misdeeds, misbehavior, disrespect, and destruction of the property and hard work of others. Let the discipline commence with no delay.
Come on vacation, leave on probation. Invite them, & they will come. And in the process our little town will be as ruined as those big towns we all moved here to get away from.
