Two registered sex offenders were arrested Thursday afternoon, after they were found to be out of compliance with registering their address. According to a Sheriff’s report, a neighbor called to report that a truck drove through a locked gate on property in the 2200 block of Yellowknife Road in Yucca Valley. During the investigation, the deputy determined that two men, identified as Robert Larch, 52, and Dakota Larch, 21, both of Desert Hot Springs, were squatting in a house. A further investigation found that Robert Larch and Dakota Larch were both registered sex offenders out of Desert Hot Springs, and had failed to register their new address as required. Robert Larch and Dakota Larch were arrested on suspicion of failing to register as a sex offender, booked at the West Valley Detention Center, with their bail set at $10,000 each.
