Two teens arrested after posing as ICE agents and robbing Hispanic victims: police

A pair of California teenagers allegedly posed as Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents and robbed Hispanic victims in a brazen set of crimes, according to authorities.

Laurentiu Baceanu and Vasile Alexandru, both 19, were arrested last Thursday hours after allegedly carrying out a couple of robberies between 5 p.m. and 6 p.m., according to Anaheim police.

The two young men approached the Hispanic victims, claiming they were from ICE, before they demanded them to turn over their cash, police said.

Baceanu and Alexandru then fled in a blue Audi Q7 SUV that was later spotted by police in Fullerton, leading to their arrests.

Anaheim authorities believe the pair have committed similar robberies where they presented badges to other Hispanic victims, spoke to them in Spanish and took off with their property.

They were both charged with several counts of robbery and other offenses and remain in custody without bail.
