Three Stolen Vehicles Recovered In Santa Clarita Crime Suppression Operation
A crime suppression operation Wednesday night resulted in five arrests throughout Santa Clarita as deputies targeted auto theft.
On Wednesday night, deputies with the Crime Impact Team (CIT), with the help of the Taskforce for Regional Auto Theft Prevention (TRAP) North Team, conducted a crime suppression operation targeting auto theft crime in Santa Clarita, said Deputy Natalie Arriaga, spokesperson for the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station.
“From the operation, three vehicles previously reported stolen were recovered, as well as five individual arrests were made,” Arriaga wrote in an official Facebook post Friday.
A report of domestic violence in Valencia on Monday ended with the alleged discovery of narcotics, guns and hundreds of pieces of stolen mail and credit cards, according to Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station officials.
Due to the matter still being under active investigation as of Wednesday, law enforcement officials could not give out the location and/or time of the incident, according to Deputy Natalie Arriaga of the SCV Sheriff’s Station.
What Arriaga said could be made public was that the arrest reportedly stemmed from a domestic violence incident, and when deputies arrived on the scene, they observed narcotics, multiple credit cards and mail addressed to other people.
