Angel Pena, 22, of Temecula, was to be booked on suspicion of possession of a firearm, possession of methamphetamine for sale, maintaining an unlawful place, possession of paraphernalia and a parole violation.
Pena is a documented gang member, according to sheriff's investigators.
George Deloera, 37, of Temecula, was arrested on suspicion of possession of methamphetamine, possession of paraphernalia, being under the influence of a controlled substance and committing a felony while out on bail.
The warrant was served at homes in the 41800 Block of Fourth Street Wednesday morning, according to Riverside County sheriff's Sgt. Vance Stolte.
