SACRAMENTO COUNTY—

Seven men, including six in the same family, were arrested in Sacramento County during a sweep by the Sacramento County Sheriff’s IMPACT Division Tuesday.

Deputies carried out the operation in response to what they say is increasing violence in the north Sacramento County area.

The men – Cristiano Cisneros, 21, Louis Cisneros, 22, Victor Cisneros, 25, David Cisneros, 26, Ronald Cisneros, 43, Oscar Cisneros, 44, and Anthony Reece, 25 – face charges ranging from possessing drugs for sale, possession of drugs while armed with loaded firearms, possession of an assault weapon, criminal conspiracy, probation violations and felony child endangerment.

A number of guns were seized during the operation, including two fully-automatic rifles and a sawed-off shotgun.

Marijuana, meth and cocaine were found during the sweep. Plus, a number of items suggesting that the group is involved in a criminal street gang were also recovered.

Officers and deputies from the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Department, Folsom Police, Sacramento Police, Placer County Sheriff’s and the Yolo Narcotics Enforcement Team participated in Tuesday’s operation.
