Chief Solis confirmed Hector and Heron are Angela Solis' sons.
Angela Solis has already been charged with credit card abuse and abuse of official capacity. She was out on a $7,500 bond.
As previously reported, the investigation began after the city switched gas companies and employees received new gas cards. Despite the switch, the previous gas company that used to provide gas cards to city employees was still charging the city.
A detective later discovered that several vehicles were involved in the fuel card scheme.
