The Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office has arrested three individuals for selling stolen appliances from newly constructed homes. The thefts took place within Hillsborough, Marion, Hernando, Manatee and Sarasota Counties.

Through investigative means, detectives confirmed that Alberto Gomez Sardinas, 32, Jose Hernandez O’Relly, 36, and Yansiel Consuegra, 24, were obtaining items stolen from homes under construction and reselling them for a profit.
