Nick Cannon’s brother, Gabriel Cannon, and as many as three unknown accomplices were arrested Wednesday in Studio City, California, after reportedly attempting to steal video equipment and personal items at the intersection of Ventura Boulevard and Colfax Avenue. The North Hollywood division of the LAPD made the arrests.
One of the victims reportedly told KCBS, “They tried taking our jewelry.†The victims are being identified as Alex Moreno and his son, 17-year old Alejo Moreno. Alex Moreno works for a production company that has been shooting a reality show with Gabriel Cannon.
The victims claim Cannon called to set up a meeting and that once he met them at the production offices, they were immediately attacked, with their jewelry, video equipment and tapes of Cannon being stolen.
Cannon and the others involved were arrested on suspicion of assault and robbery.
