It’s been 48 years since Deputy Pelino tragically lost his life in the line of duty while working in Gorman on March 19, 1978. We will always remember. #LASD #SCV #NeverForgotten #EOW

🔥 California is under a heat wave, bringing hot, dry, and windy conditions, making wildfires more likely to occur and to spread fast. When temps soar, even a tiny spark can ignite disaster. Protect yourself, your home, and your community by taking these steps: ✅ Secure trailer chains to avoid sparks on the road ✅ Skip using spark-producing equipment ✅ Never park or drive over dry grass ✅ Avoid open flame activities that could ignite nearby vegetation, like grilling and campfires Heat waves don’t just bring discomfort — they increase wildfire risks. Let’s stay smart, safe, and spark-free. 👉 For more prevention tips: ReadyForWildfire.org 👉 For heat safety resources: HeatReadyCA.com #HeatWave #FireWeather #OneLessSpark #WildfirePrevention #CALFIRE #ReadyForWildfire #WildfireSafety

A message from @LASDHQ and @LACoSheriff.

CHP is deploying the next generation of Specially Marked Patrol Vehicles—distinctive colors with a version of the traditional CHP markings in sharp contrast on the doors. These SMPVs support efforts to stop reckless and dangerous driving. #CaliforniaHighwayPatrol #SMPV

A deputy patrolling Newhall spotted a suspiciously parked car with its hazard lights on. A quick check led to the discovery of heroin, fentanyl, stolen IDs, and drug paraphernalia. A man and a woman were arrested on multiple charges. #SCVSheriff #LASD #SantaClarita

If conditions allow on Sat., April 19, firefighters may light a prescribed fire (planned fire) of brush piles in the forest next to Oak Flat Campground. Smoke may be seen/smelled inside the Angeles National Forest, off I-5, and in Castaic, Santa Clarita, + Newhall.

Station JAG detectives led a coordinated, multi-location operation aimed at disrupting criminal street gang activity and safeguarding the Santa Clarita Valley. 13 search warrants across multiple locations, 11 detentions, 8 arrests.

Around 7 PM last night, deputies located an armed and dangerous suspect who initially fled law enforcement, leading to a brief pursuit. He was arrested for Criminal Threats, Evasion, and weapons charges without incident. Kudos to our deputies who brought him in safely.

@PhixResist @SCVSignal That’s kind of our job. :)

@SCVSignal Wait, the local sheriff's office investigates car thefts in Santa Clarita? Why are they special?

Deputies were on a routine patrol on Newhall Ranch Road and Magic Mountain Parkway when they found a reported stolen vehicle in the Wendy’s drive-thru Friday night, according to Detective Kevin Fleck with the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station. signalscv.com/2025/04/deputi…

Deputies patrolling Santa Clarita took multiple suspects into custody in the past 24 hours, including those involved in assaults, DUIs, stolen vehicles, shoplifting, grand theft, and fraud. Keeping the community safe—one arrest at a time. #LASD #SantaClarita
