A California man, whose attorney said was part of a theft ring stealing e-bikes, waived extradition to Solano County, Calif., on Thursday.

Victor Vasquez Anguiano, 30, has two active warrants out of California, one of which is related to similar thefts in Fairfield, Calif.

Anguiano received a suspended 13-36-month sentence on May 20 in connection with the 2024 theft of e-bikes and a generator. He was granted 116 days for time he served in jail.

 Attorney William Swafford cited his client’s addictions to methamphetamine and gambling as part of the issues that led to his crimes. Anguiano was the owner of the white van that was used to transport three e-bikes and a generator during a May 2024 theft. He was in Douglas County doing electrical work.

Prosecutor Ric Casper said that Anguiano was initially cooperative with law enforcement on May 26, 2024, but then failed to appear and a warrant was issued for his arrest.

According to court documents, Anguiano admitted he stole a generator on May 19 and three e-bikes on May 26, 2024. The thefts amounted to material worth more than $1,200 in merchandise.

• A man could face revocation of his probation after he was sentenced May 20 for gross misdemeanor attempted burglary of a vehicle.

Jessie James Avalos, 31, has been in custody since Jan. 20 after he was arrested in connection with breaking into a vehicle. He is scheduled to appear in East Fork Justice Court on June 4 to deal with the other misdemeanors in the case.

Originally set for a trial, Avalos entered a guilty plea a few days before the May 20 hearing.

Avalos has done two stretches in prison, most recently in connection with a 2022 drug possession case, where he was sentenced in 2024.

In January 2019, he was arrested for eluding in the middle of the big manhunt for the killer of two Gardnerville Ranchos women. That resulted in a 1-3 year prison sentence.

 • A man accused of selling methamphetamine on four occasions this time last year received suspended prison terms on May 20.

Dwight David Rollings, 41, admitted to the sales in Douglas County District Court last month. He also admitted to a count of failing to appear in court.

Rollings said he took off for Oregon because he was fearful of the outcome of the case.

According to court documents, Rollings failed to appear in East Fork Justice Court on July 29, 2024, after being released on his own recognizance after the May 2024 drug sales. The felony was charged after he failed to turn himself in within 30 days of the East Fork court date.

Rollings received underlying sentences of 19-52 months for supplying a controlled substance and 12-30 months for failure to appear to run consecutively, should he fail his 24-month probation.

He received credit for 126 days time served.
