LOS ANGELES—A 53-year-old man suspected of stealing $4 million worth of Lenovo computers was arrested in Colton, police said Oct. 31.

Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) Harbor Division patrol officers received information Oct. 30 regarding the theft of the computers, police said. The victim stated the load of computers were taken via fraudulent means and tracking devices were being used to follow the trailer with the stolen computers to Industry and then Colton, police said.

LAPD Commercial Crimes Division Cargo Theft Unit detectives were notified and began conducting a thorough investigation, police said.
