Two men riding in a stolen vehicle were arrested Wednesday after allegedly burglarizing a beauty supply store.

About 3:30 a.m., officers went to the beauty supply store in the 5500 block of Stearns Street regarding a burglary call from the business’ private security company, according to the Long Beach Police Department.

Evidence led investigators to Hawaiian Gardens, and they coordinated with the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department to find the suspects.

Deputies located a car, which was reported stolen, which they believed to be involved in the burglary. Long Beach officers responded to the scene and recovered the stolen car and $5,000 of beauty supply merchandise, police said.

Omar Nunez, 30, of Hawaiian Gardens, was arrested and booked for commercial robbery and committing a burglary during a state of emergency.

Isaac Anthony Silva, 21, of Hawaiian Gardens, was arrested and booked for commercial burglary, committing a burglary during a state of emergency, grand theft, receiving known stolen property and for stealing a vehicle.

Silva and Nunez are being held on $50,000 bail. Their case will be presented to the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office on Friday.
