On March 13, officers responded to the rental property on the west side of the Balboa Peninsula just before 6 a.m., where they learned that two masked people with handguns got into the home and demanded money and drugs.
They assaulted and injured multiple people and stole cellphones, jewelry, car keys and other personal property, Newport Beach authorities said.
Police later identified and arrested the three people on suspicion of conspiracy and robbery. Two of the three are also suspected of assault with a deadly weapon, police said.
