Las Vegas, NV (KTNV) - Three men were indicted on multiple theft charges arising from their operation and involvement in a Las Vegas automotive repair shop called 702 Auto Care.
The Office of the Nevada Attorney General has announced indictments against Harold Gomez, Yader Gomez a.k.a. Tony Gomez, and Jose Gomez
The indictment alleges that the three men intentionally and falsely misrepresented to customers that their vehicles would be repaired in exchange for payment. The State alleges that that the men never intended to repair these vehicles, that the repairs were not performed and the victims' payments were not returned.
"This type of scam costs the victims much more than the amount they paid to the defendants," said Attorney General Catherine Cortez Masto. "Several of these victims were left without transportation for several months and their vehicles required costly repairs beyond those originally needed because of defendants' actions. My office is committed to ensuring that this type of conduct does not continue in our State."
Numerous complaints were received by the Department of Motor Vehicles about misrepresentations made by the three men. Among those complaints were individuals that had paid several thousands of dollars to the men for engine rebuilds or replacements which were never received. The Attorney General's Bureau of Consumer Protection is prosecuting the matter.
The indictment is not a determination of guilt or innocence but is simply a finding of probable cause that a crime was committed. The defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty.
The Attorney General's Office is asking that anyone who has information regarding this case contact them at (702) 486-3777.
