Watsonville police chased three gang members with guns and drugs after they ran away from police Tuesday after officers spotted them with open beer cans.
Police say they recovered three guns, 126 grams of methamphetamine, 38 grams of heroin, prescription pills, drug paraphernalia, and cash.
Officers first spotted the group with open cans while patrolling near Main Street in Watsonville. They ran as officers approached and tried to ditch their guns, which police said they later found after searching the area.
Three people were arrested and booked into Santa Cruz County jail.
