Colombian Theft Group Busted After Central Florida Burglaries

Orange County deputies say a Colombian theft group targeting Asian business owners was arrested after a multi-county investigation. The crew spent weeks casing homes and businesses in Hillsborough, Orange, and Osceola counties, often disguising themselves as landscapers to track victims. Five suspects were arrested without incident and now face charges including burglary, grand theft, and criminal mischief, with ICE detainers placed on each.
