Shame on him! Time for some tough love!
Jennifer Wells is this near someone we know?
Holy cow… I think so!!!
What’s in the water supply these days? It seems it’s all about people going nuts on their family members!

I could hear the helicopter telling the man to come out with his hands up. I live in circle j ranch
Don’t judge. Parenting is hard and being a kid these days is hard.
Knowing the cops he’s probably gonna get shot
Here you go Annie Schiermeyer Koretz
Oh no! What is happening to scv!!!??!! Lol
Wow.
Before you say stuff about scv, crime happens everywhere. Yes there is crime in scv but not as much as other places like antelope valley or San Fernando. This stuff happens everywhere
There’s not really anywhere outside of scv that has less crime
Yes there is Austin Currado.
I know there is but there aren’t as many
Close to scv that is
Lol San Fernando is a way smaller town and does not have more crime than scv.
Maybe San Fernando Valley…
My point is that Santa Clarita has less crime than most places and people are acting like they’ve never been outside of scv or they freak out when any crime happens here
Austin Currado there is far more crime in SCV than ever before. Same element that arrived in the AV thanks to Los Angeles. .is now discovering the SCV ..I grew up there . I live in Quartz Hill. .my little town has very low crime. ..other areas ..a lot of crime. Also you all don’t see what officers see. Time to accept the arrival of crime
I also lived in Palmdale for 12 years and there was a lot of crime there but we moved to scv recently and there is crime but far less than antelope valley. I do understand that AV used to be nice with low crime, my parents told me. I am also aware that more crime is happening in scv but there still isn’t a lot of crime here
Scv has a low crime rate
AV on the map is orange which on the key is higher crime
And you say that the AV has been taken over by crime yet you say quartz hill has very low crime. Quartz hill is in the antelope valley
Definitely a higher crime rate there
Thank you
Thank you Shirley Vercelli
Waiting for the “what’s happening in SCV!?” comment. Oh wait, it already happened.
Jane Uniack this is what it was
Carly Mushinski can you guys please move now. That area is getting so shady.
Omg Danny Fish!
If that arrow is correct than that’s Valencia. They just say newhall as not to ruin the awesome town property value
It looked like wiley and via princessa which i thought was your area. Thank goodness.
No it is close to us. But the news always lies about the city to protect property value. Like when the guy killed himself behind our place they said it was canyon country
Michaela here is the story.
Pendejo
Thanks Linda I could not find anything
It seems it ended safely, I live only a few blocks from there and heard the helicopter.
Tricia Decker
And for those asking about what is happening in SCV, there are more people so there will be more crime. It is still very safe. Most of the crime, unfortunately is domestic violence related. (Family things)
Thank you!
I will go get him out (alive)
It’s Valencia aka AWESOME TOWN!! But they rather pin it on Newhall
Peggy- Happy we decided on a different route for our evening journey.

“Thanks Mom & Dad for giving me life …SALSH! SLASH ! STAB ! STAB !”
Drugs will do that

What’s happening to “Awesome Town”???
Just a little more crime. Still has lower crime rates than other areas
Canyon Country has the same resources as Valencia. Maybe now you are seeing that crime is everywhere. Even in Valencia.
I think the anemic economic recovery and high rents are to blame. Not enough jobs that pay enough to rent an apartment are keeping kids at home for way too long. This is increasing frustration and tension in the home.
On my street at the top of Saugus all the kids that grew up there are now 20-30 years old and still living at home even though they work full time. Most of them have finished college or had at least some college. They can’t afford 1500.00 to 1800.00 rents with jobs that pay less than 15.00 an hour.
ugh i hate the whole “awesome town” it’s so lame.
This was literally in my backyard as its the neighbors on my back fence. We just moved to the area in September from Santa Monica and I have to say we have been hearing the police helicopter out quite a bit since moving here. I know the crime is lower here but it is on the rise.
