(Riverside Co. Sheriff's Dept.)

Police arrested four people after they say they were involved in stealing circuit breakers from businesses in Palm Desert, La Quinta, and Cathedral City.

After investigating a commercial burglary on Country Club Dr. on August 17, investigators linked it to seven other similar burglaries on Valley businesses – which was a loss to the businesses of about $180,000, according to The Riverside County Sheriff’s Department.

The Palm Desert Burglary Suppression Unit identified four suspects involved in the burglaries: 44 year old Troy Christiansen, of Kingman, AZ, 40 year old Timothy Sikorski, of Banning, 25 year old Alexander Gonzales, of Rialto, and 33 year old Christina Sikorski, of Banning.

Deputies arrested Christiansen and Gonzales in the city of Palm Desert on September 9. On September 12 Timothy and Christina Sikorski were arrested in San Bernardino.

All suspects were booked on charges of burglary, conspiracy, and other related charges.
