Contra Costa sheriff's detectives on Wednesday raided properties and seized a computer from the owners of a Pittsburg auto wrecking yard that kidnap-rape suspect Phillip Garrido frequented, one of the owners said.
Sheriff's spokesman Jimmy Lee offered few details about the morning raids, saying only that detectives conducted three probation searches, in Pittsburg, Bay Point and Pleasant Hill, in their ongoing investigation into the 1991 kidnapping and alleged rapes of Jaycee Dugard over several years.
