FLAGSTAFF, AZ - Authorities say an alleged gang member wanted in California has been arrested in northern Arizona.

Coconino County Sheriff's officials say 20-year-old Lebron Flores was taken into custody Friday after driving away from a home in Winona.

They say Flores is wanted on a warrant for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon out of Riverside, Calif.

Riverside County Sheriff's officials say Flores is a member of a violent street gang.

Arizona authorities say a 19-year-old man was arrested with Flores, but it wasn't immediately clear if he's also wanted in California.

Both men have been booked into the Coconino County Detention Facility. They're each being held on $150,000 bonds.

Authorities didn't immediately know Friday evening if Flores had a lawyer.
