HMG-LCCN received two phone calls and confirmed with Cerritos Sheriffs that FBI and Homeland Security personnel raided a home in on the 17000 block of Maurice Dr. in Cerritos.
Neighbors said that three carloads and about a dozen officers went into the house, took “all sorts of stuff out of the house and the garage.”
The resident indicated the FBI and HSI were there for about 1.5 hours.
One residents reported seeing an African-American man go into the house last week and told HMG-LCCN that the house is a rental.
HMG-LCCN will update when available.
UPDATE 12:03 p.m.
The address is 17304 Maurice, online records show the house is owned by Lubna and Azhar Muttalib, who bought the home in 2012.
Oh, oh, close to Whitney HS, that says it all and was a rental property. Rest assured the rental was not maintained compared to these other trophy homes in Cerritos.
Any Landlord who operates rental housing in Cerritos, must pay for a business license and be in compliance with Bus Prof Code as part of the requirement to operate a business in city. City estimates over 37% of the homes in the city are rentals, pay no business license or tax and are slum landlords. Most of the citations brought to the PPC are rental slums.
When was the last time, a buyer or renter, stated, Give me a dirty home in one of the dirtiest cities in LA/OC, this is what is occurring in Cerritos, our hoods are filthy.
