Between May 25 and May 31, 2024, investigators from the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department – Gangs/Narcotics Division, alongside deputies from patrol stations, executed six search warrants and contacted suspects at various locations in Ontario, Fontana, and Rialto.

During these operations, investigators engaged with gang members and individuals prohibited from possessing firearms. This led to the recovery of illegal narcotics and the seizure of five firearms, three of which were ghost guns. Additionally, a total of 12 felony arrests were made.

The San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors has authorized funds for county-wide crime suppression. The objective is to provide additional funding to the Sheriff’s Department to enhance law enforcement services addressing quality-of-life issues within the communities.

Operation Consequences aims to conduct targeted crime suppression operations in the High Desert and areas under the Sheriff's jurisdiction surrounding the city of San Bernardino. The operation will involve personnel from multiple divisions including the Sheriff’s Gangs/Narcotics Division, Specialized Enforcement Division, patrol stations, California Highway Patrol, San Bernardino County Probation, California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, and Department of Homeland Security Investigations. Operation Consequences will continue over several months with goals to curb violent crime, disrupt criminal street gangs, and arrest individuals involved in illegal firearm activities.
