LOMA LINDA>> On Wednesday Sept. 21, deputies recovered numerous firearms from a barricaded subject's home following terrorist threats at the 26200 Block of Mission Road in Loma Linda. Deputies from the Sheriff's Central Station, Loma Linda Police, were dispatched to the location in regards to a brandishing of a firearm.
