A suspected gang member was arrested Wednesday afternoon after bringing a concealed gun into a Wendy's restaurant in Walnut Creek, police said.
Officers responded at 3:51 p.m. Wednesday to a report of a man with a gun inside the Wendy's at 2955 N. Main St. in Walnut Creek, police said.
Police closed North Main Street between Treat Boulevard and Sunnyvale Avenue during their investigation as a safety precaution.
Officers arrested 20-year-old Mauricio Eric Cervantes, of Walnut Creek, on suspicion of being a gang member with a concealed firearm, police said.
He was booked at the Martinez Detention Facility, where he is being held on $120,000 bail.

Posted by Derek, a resident of the Danville neighborhood, on Aug 23, 2012 at 4:18 pm Too bad our gutless excuses for leaders won't mandate that anti-terrorism laws be enforced against gangs. They certainly fit every definition of "terrorist organization".
Of course, rounding up bangers wouldn't be as lucrative for the military-industrial war profiteers as the perpetual phony war on terror.

Posted by LMP, a resident of the Danville neighborhood, on Aug 24, 2012 at 7:28 am We need serious penalties for gang activity. Put them in a jail that does not include weight lifting equipment and other perks. In a cell with lousy food. Deport anyone who isn't here legally. Get serious, it's getting out of control.
