Final Suspect Arrested in Irvine Crypto Home Invasion

Darnell Walker caught in Nevada after months-long manhunt

Authorities have captured the seventh and final suspect wanted in a violent Irvine home invasion robbery that left a family duct taped and held at gunpoint during an attempted cryptocurrency theft.

Darnell Trevon Anderson Walker, 23, of Corona, was arrested on Dec. 1, 2025, in Las Vegas after U.S. Marshals tracked him to Nevada, the Orange County District Attorney’s Office announced. Walker had been on the run since the Sept. 23, 2025 robbery in the 5000 block of Royale Avenue.

According to prosecutors, seven suspects stormed the home around 3:30 a.m., duct taping the residents and holding them at gunpoint in an attempt to steal millions in cryptocurrency. A man sleeping with his wife and infant son awoke to breaking glass, alerting his brother-in-law before both were overpowered by armed intruders who restrained and gagged them.

Two women were taken from upstairs and brought downstairs, but one was able to lock herself in a bedroom with her children and call 911. An intruder fled with her phone as the group escaped.

Detectives later obtained video from a victim’s Tesla, which captured a white Dodge Charger linked to the suspects. That footage helped investigators identify several members of the group.

Walker now faces charges including four counts of kidnapping to commit robbery, first-degree robbery, and first-degree burglary, along with 12 felony enhancements for firearm use and acting in concert with multiple accomplices. If convicted, he faces 44 years to life, plus an additional 10 years.

The six other suspects—Kahlil Thomas Ware, Lee Roy Ford, Jazamine Louise Garner, Mike O Clarence Bonam-Hillman, and Nathan Sin—face the same felony charges and possible life sentences.

Another suspect, Tommy Levion-Elijah Davis, was previously released over prosecutors’ objections in a separate Laguna Niguel burglary case. He now faces multiple charges tied to both incidents, including kidnapping, robbery, attempted burglary, numerous firearm enhancements, and acting in concert with multiple offenders. He faces up to 44 years to life plus 12 years, 8 months and remains jailed with no bail.

Orange County District Attorney Todd Spitzer praised the multi-agency effort that brought all seven suspects into custody.
“There is no escaping the long arm of Orange County law enforcement,” Spitzer said. “We are doing everything we can to bring these criminals to justice.”

The investigation involved cooperation between Irvine police, the U.S. Marshals Service, the OCDA, and the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department.
