Motorcycle club leader Ralph "Sonny'' Barger was arrested for parole violation after raiders found firearms in his Oakland hills home. Police said three1 other Oakland Angels were arrested two for parole, violations and one for car theft, 1 i The arrests came as law officers were serving subpoenas on Angels in Oakland, Solano County and Sacramento, according to Solano County Deputy District Attorney Hugh Comisky. He said the subpoenas require the Angels and associates to appear before a county grand jury that has been investigating the motorcycle club's activities since the bombing of a county narcotics agent's car in January. Noting that there have been Solano County arrests of Angels on fugitive warrants and narcotics violations in recent months, Comisky said, "We are trying to make them less active this county." He declined to reveal the focus of the investigation but said one aspect is alleged attacks on law enforcement officers.

Examiner Sid Tata The raidars had trouble galling over the fanca at Sonny Bargar'a home in Oakland chapter figured in the investigation because of its close ties to the Vallejo chapter. James Mitchell, chief of the Oakland Police Department's vice squad, said a raiding party of 20 Oakland police, state correctional officers and sheriff's deputies from Alameda and Solano counties descended on Barger's home at 6 a.m. to serve subpoenas on the Angel and his wife. to life for heroin possession for sale and for possession of marijuana and dangerous drugs.

i The grand jury investigation began shortly after the Jan. 30 explosion of a bomb beside the car of an undercover agent for the Solano County Bureau of Narcotics Enforcement. At the time, the agent was leaving to testify against James Brandes, 32, who is one of the Angels arrested today. During today's raid, investigators also searched a investigation of auto theft after it was determined that the car was stolen. A fourth Angel, Michael O'Fareell, was arrested for parole violation at his Oakland home at 1055 Stella Ave.

The charges involve weapons possession. Barger's house is an attractive wood frame structure with a shingled roof.lt was surrounded by a seven-foot-high chain-link fence, and the wooden planter boxes on the porch were decorated with swastikas. 1 Police were unable to get through the fence, so someclimbed over and the others passed their weapons over at the start of the raid. 1 Investigators said no narcotics were found in Barger's house. His wife, Sharon, was not arrested but was served with a grand jury subpoena.

In San Diego County, two men described as Angel prospects were arrested on a charges of conspiracy to commit murder after they were discovered using field glasses to observe the home of an undercover agent. The agent was a central figure in the arrest of more than 20 Angels. Mitchell said Barger answered the front door in Levis and didn't resist He said raiders found at least two handguns, a rifle, some machetes and daggers in Barger's house at MOB Golf Links Road. That provided the basis for the arrest on alleged parole violations. Barger, longtime Angels leader and president from 1957 to about 1972, was paroled from Folsom State Prison last November after serving 3 "4 years on a narcotics conviction.

He had been sentenced to 10 years home occupied, by Brandes and Russell Beyea, who lives across the street from Barger at 9501 Golf Links Road. Beyea, on' parole after serving time for a 1972 second-degree murder conviction, was booked for investigation of parole violation for undisclosed reasons. While the raid was in progress, Brandes drove up in a Corvette Stingray and started taking down license numbers of police vehicles.
