Two arrested in Scotts Valley for stolen car and drugs

Two people in Scotts Valley have been arrested for having a stolen car, forgery and drug possession.

Police responded to a welfare check on a woman who was seen slumped over the wheel of a van.

While they were talking to her, they discovered that the van was reported stolen in Los Gatos.

She was with two other people who were in a store at the time. When they came out, police detained them.

Jaime Bracamonte and Bettina Skinner-Martinez were the two who had the stolen van, so they were arrested. The other person with them was cited and released.

During a search, police found drugs, stolen credit cards, checks and fake IDs.

Bracamonte and Skinner-Martinez have been booked into jail.
