The owners called police and after they arrived, police say several people ran into the home and barricaded themselves inside.
The SWAT Team was called in and authorities eventually had to deploy gas into the home. No one was injured.
Beltran, Medrano, Avalos, Monica Marie Scheffert and another woman were arrested on Saturday. Neither woman has been charged.
The three men were charged with theft of means of transportation, conspiracy to commit theft of means of transportation, operating a chop shop and obstruction of justice.
