Valencia, Zone 5

Public Safety and Crime Prevention Information

Snapshot for the week of 01/19/2015 to 01/25/2015

An assault with a deadly weapon occurred near the area of McBean Parkway and Avenue Scott. The victim was assaulted by an unknown male. Right before the victim was sprayed in the face with pepper spray, the suspect yelled at to the victim, “Remember me.” The suspect then proceeded to hit the victim over the head three times with an unknown hard object.

A shoplifting robbery occurred near the 26400 block of McBean Parkway. A female suspect was arrested by patrol deputies after she was detained for fighting with security over the property she was attempting to steal. An unknown male suspect was also involved, but fled the location prior to the deputies arrival.

A residential burglary occurred near the 27000 block of Vista Encantada. Suspect(s) unknown entered the victim’s residence and stole two boxes of jewelry. The house was racked, but it was unknown what was stolen at this time.

A second residential burglary occurred near the 24400 block of Nottingham Court. While the victims were on vacation, suspect(s) unknown entered the victims home and stole jewelry from inside the location.

A grand theft occurred near the 24200 block of Town Center Drive. A male suspect entered the store and selected numerous high dollar sunglasses and concealed them on his person. The suspect then exited the store without paying for the items. The suspect got into a gray compact car and fled the area.

A second grand theft occurred near the 24100 block of Magic Mountain Parkway. Three suspects entered the store and stole bags full of woman’s bras. The suspect then ran out of the store and fled the location.

A vehicle theft occurred near the 28100 block of Avenue Stanford. Suspect(s) unknown stole the victim’s 1988 Toyota truck from the location.

We have seen an increase in petty thefts over the last few weeks. As I review a lot of these reports I continue to see a common theme. The victim left the item unsecured or his/her vehicle unlocked. I try weekly to remind everyone to make sure they are not becoming easy targets for thieves. Please take the extra minute or two to ensure your home is secure and your vehicle as well. Always make sure you keep your garage closed and lock your vehicle while inside your garage. Thank you and as always feel free to contact me anytime.
