Mansion party-burglary arrests: Teens posted photos of loot online
LA HABRA HEIGHTS, Calif. (KABC) -- Arrests have been made in connection to a mansion takeover and burglary that resulted in more than $1 million in damage in La Habra Heights.
"This is one of the most serious juvenile and adult crimes that we have come across," said Los Angeles County Sheriff Lee Baca.
Neighbors told Eyewitness News they heard music and saw cars parked up and down Chota Road. But they say it was not unusual for the 9,000-square-foot mansion, which is listed for sale.
It is owned by Nick Radoi, a businessman who made the news last September when his yacht struck Balboa Pier.
Radoi was in Europe when scores of teenagers learned through tweets about a surreptitious event at his La Habra Heights property.

Teens Allegedly Break Into Mansion; Stuffed Leopard Among $1M in Loot
After the owner of a multimillion-dollar home went out of town, high-school students in the area noticed the house was empty and announced a party in the backyard on Twitter, Lt. Arthur Scott of the Los Angeles County Sheriffs Department Industry Station said Wednesday.
During the party, the teens broke into the home, which Scott described as fabulous and a mansion, trashing the property. The party took place without the homeowners knowledge, he said.
They just had a free-for-all once the place was broken into, Scott said. Once entry was made, it was like, Oh, this is fun.
