Authorities arrested a dozen men Wednesday during an undercover sting targeting unlicensed contractors in Blue Jay.
The Contractors State License Board worked with the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department to solicit bids for painting, concrete and roofing at a Blue Jay residence.
Contractors who bid more than $500 for labor and materials received a notice to appear in court because such jobs are required to be handled by licensed contractors under state law.
The people arrested were Fernando Anival Ayala, 26, of Rialto, Julio Manciula Vasques, 48, of Lamont, Greg Alvin Lane, 52, of Crestline, Mark Anthony Hansenbener, 40, of Riverside, Olav Alexander Flores, 37, of Cedar Glen, Matthew Allen Wegner, 51, of Lake Arrowhead, Adolfo Garcia-Ornelas, 54, of Lake Arrowhead, Miguel Gonzalez Campa, 51, of Cedar Glen, Brad Jonathan Palenchar, 31, of Running Springs, Christopher Lee Henning, 38, of Lake Arrowhead; and Juan Martinez Huerta, 28, and Daniel Acosta-Carrillo, 30, both of Big Bear Lake.
