Public Safety and Crime Prevention Information
Snapshot for 12/17/2012 – 12/23/2012.
Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station Crime Prevention Unit

 

During the past week Newhall (Zone 6) had seven reported Part-1 crimes.

Newhall saw two aggravated assaults (one of which was related to a domestic violence incident), one residential burglary, one grand theft, and three petty thefts. There were no reported vehicle burglaries during the above dates.

On Tuesday, 12/18/2012, US currency was stolen from a tip jar at the Papa John’s Pizza located at 23120 Lyons Avenue. The witness reported that the suspect entered the business and was pacing back and forth in the lobby of the location. The suspect exchanged words with the witness and then exited the location with the cash from the tip jar (ref -17906).

On Thursday, 12/20/2012, a victim reported that her wallet was stolen from inside a bar located on the 22500 block of 8th Street in Newhall. After the victim’s wallet was stolen, the victim reported that the possible suspect used her credit card at a gas station to make a purchase without her permission. This incident is currently under investigation (ref -18080).

During the past week, deputies working in Newhall (Zone 6) made over 10 arrests for various crimes such as narcotics, domestic violence, and being under the influence of the a controlled substance.

I continue to partner with the residents and business owners in Newhall. On 12/19/2012 I had the opportunity to meet and speak with numerous members of the Old Town Newhall Association about some of the exciting things taking place in Newhall. We also had the opportunity to discuss public safety and some of the latest and most current crime trends.
