Grand Terrace>>Deputy Gile from the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Central Station (Grand Terrace Police) went to the incident location to serve a due diligence warrant on a wanted subject. While at the incident location, Deputy Gile made contact with Rocco Montagnese, a 53-year-old resident of Grand Terrace, who is a convicted felon.

During a check of the property, a rifle, body armor, ammunition and methamphetamine were located. Montagnese is prohibited from possessing these items due to his felony conviction status.

Through the investigation it was learned Montagnese was maintaining the residence for drug use and sales. Tawni Balint, 28-year-old, resident of Grand Terrace, was found to be living at the residence and methamphetamine was located within her property.

Ronald Sikorski, 48-year-old, resident of Grand Terrace, arrived at the residence on a motorcycle during the investigation. He was found to be driving on a suspended license and was detained. Sikorski was found in possession of a quantity of methamphetamine, which is consistent for sales.

All three subjects were arrested and booked into Central Detention Center. Several other subjects that were at the residence, who all had drug history, were released at the scene.

Anyone with information regarding this incident is urged to contact Central Station at (909)387-3545. Callers wishing to remain anonymous are urged to call We-Tip Hot line at 1-800-78-CRIME(27463) or you may leave information on the website at www.wetip.com.
