Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station deputies detained a man suspected of carrying a weapon inside a McDonald’s at the corner of Magic Mountain Parkway and The Old Road in Valencia on Sunday.
The manager of the McDonald’s had been told by a customer about a man with a holstered gun in the bathroom, Sgt. Mike Pokorny said.
Several sheriff’s deputies were dispatched shortly after 12:20 p.m. and cleared the area of civilians.
Upon arrival, deputies were told by witnesses that the suspect had walked to Wendy’s across the street.
“Our deputies were redirected and a small on-foot pursuit ensued,” Pokorny said. “Deputies then captured the suspect and placed him into custody.”
A gun was not found on the suspect, Pokorny said.
An investigation of the area remained underway Sunday night, with no one reported to be harmed. Deputies and a K9 unit continued to search the area for a possible firearm, Pokorny said.
No further information was immediately available.
