At approximately 4:30am this morning our office received a report of a directed (not random) home robbery having taken place in eastern Sierra County. There were no injuries reported but there were several weapons and ammunition stolen from the residence. We do have a person of interest that we are attempting to locate and notifications have been made to surrounding agencies to BOLO for this subject. This is still a very active investigation and no further information is being released at this time.
A Sierra County Arrest Warrant and Affidavit was issued at 2:17:42 p.m. for Philip Arthur Hayden of Reno, NV. Hayden was located and subsequently arrested in Washoe Co. for 211 PC-Robbery, 211.5 PC-Home Invasion Robbery, 487 PC-Grand Theft (Firearms), 29800(a)(1)PC-Felon in Possession of Firearms, and 236 PC-False Imprisonment. He is being held on a No Bail Warrant and will be awaiting extradition to California.
