SAN DIEGO (FOX 5/KUSI) -- Two suspects were arrested earlier this month in connection to a series of burglaries at homes in San Diego County and Los Angeles this fall, and a search of a Los Angeles home led authorities to a stockpile of stolen items. The investigation has been ongoing since Nov. 15 when officers responded to calls for a residential burglary at a Carlsbad home.
