Sadly this is not the same city it was 25 years ago. More people, more drugs, more crime. :(

Omg I say that and think that every time I see them with their cars lined up. I have even seen it with a older lady walking down the side walk. No lie like 8 cars for whatever was going on there

A lot of police officers are killed/injured during “routine traffic stops”. Might seem excessive but better to be safe than sorry.

I think y’all should just add “What is going on in the SCV?” to every headline, so we don’t have to read the same thing in the comments, over and over……

My guess is stuff like this always happened, it’s just the signal and other city outlets have social media now when before one would have had to read a blurb in the actual paper – IF the paper bothered at all using the ad space to run it. 6-8 years ago on my street there was a knife wielding neighbor holed up threatening family members that no less than 10 sheriff units responded and to which the sheriff literally brought the mobile armory to storm the house. But nobody ever heard about it – including the rest of my HOA neighborhood. Today that would be on fb and be interpreted as signaling Armageddon. Just because social media tells us about it doesn’t mean it’s new.

Angie Wilroy Hall – you are absolutely 100% correct. The crime rate has dropped significantly over the past 5 years, 10 years, but you wouldn’t know it because most crimes didn’t make the news in the old days. (Or, strictly speaking, in the really old days, like the 1920s and 1930s, when only 3,000 or 4,000 people lived in the entire SCV, you’d hear about every little crime … but as our population exploded in the 1960s-70s-80s, that stopped.)
Man…. this is Our towns year!! More crime in the first two months than like the last 15 years.

Hahhaa I love the comment by the Canyon Country kid— look who’s living in a crappy neighborhood now, Valencia! Lol
Well they keep building and building, eventually crazies will come.
I like that crime graphic really bringing out the fear in people.. nice
I knew the guy smh…. I had just left 10 mins prior to this incident thank god he stabbed his friend
Santa Clarita is not going to make the “safest place to live” list anymore. That’s really sad.
5 units jumped to 12 units for a traffic stop on this thread…that’s funny. A felony traffic stop will involve a larger number of units. If the license plate comes back with the registered owner as having any outstanding warrants or past felony convictions, LASD along with every other agency in the state would rather make sure their officers are safe. So you will see what appears to be excessive units at one stop. They are required to wait for back up. You and I do not have a clue as to why that person was stopped or what their history is just by driving by. It is human nature to just “assume: its a routine traffic stop…there is nothing routine about it. Furthermore, until you have experienced what it is like to pull somebody over and walk up to the side of the car without having any clue as to what your about to walk up to…please do not judge. There are many things that go horribly wrong on a single traffic stop.
