Deputies with the Crime Impact Team, (CIT) have been conducting crime suppression operations to crack down on bike theft in Santa Clarita. 

Due to a rise in bicycle thefts, CIT deputies, recently conducted a bicycle operation focused on thieves stealing bicycles left unattended in Santa Clarita, said Deputy Natalie Arriaga, spokesperson for the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station. 

“In the meantime, always make sure your bike is left secured with a lock attached to a proper bicycle rack, do not leave garage doors open exposing a bicycle and other vulnerable property to thieves and always report suspicious activity,” Arriaga said. 

The crime suppression operations on bike theft is just one of several ways deputies work to protect us in the Santa Clarita Valley. 

“CIT deputies will continue to conduct similar operations in the near future,” Arriaga said. 

Sheriff’s officials also remind residents to say something if they see something suspicious by calling 661-260-4000 for non-emergencies.
