Stevenson Ranch, Zone 3

Public Safety and Crime Prevention Information

Snapshot for 01/12/2015 to 01/18/2015

Last week in Zone 3, the following Part-1 Crimes occurred:

A road rage/ attempted robbery incident occurred at Poe Parkway and Stevenson Ranch Parkway. During the incident, the suspect drove in front of the victim and applied his brakes abruptly. The victim stopped behind the suspect and waved her cellular phone out of her vehicle window as if to tell the suspect she was calling law enforcement. The suspect walked up to the victim’s car window and attempted to take her cellular phone away from the victim. The victim was able to maintain control of the cellular phone and the suspect walked back to his vehicle and drove away. The incident is currently under investigation by Santa Clarita Valley Station detectives.

A theft occurred at a business in the 24900 block of The Old Road. The suspect walked in, looked at a guitar on display and walked out with the guitar without paying for it. The suspect was described as a 20 year old male, 6’00”, 140lbs, having black hair. Stolen was a “Fender Strat” guitar (special edition, maple neck, yellowish/green frame) valued at $799.00.

A theft occurred at a business in the 25400 block of The Old Road. Two Van Nuys residents were detained by Loss Prevention personnel and arrested by deputy personnel for stealing $546.22 in merchandise from the business.

Here are some safety tips to keep in mind year round:

– When you park the car, remove cellular phones, purses, wallets and other valuable possessions. Do not leave these items in plain view. Lock all valuables in your trunk or take them with you.

– If you see any suspicious persons (including curfew violators) in your neighborhood, or place of business, please do not hesitate to the call the Sheriff’s Station at (661) 255-1121.

– Also, please remember to store your local law enforcement’s station phone number in to your cellular phone.

I encourage you to pass these safety tips along to family and friends, and as always, please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

Sincerely,

Deputy Yesenia Holwager
