Around 3:05 p.m. Wednesday, deputies made contact with an individual in an illegally parked vehicle on Railroad Avenue near Oak Ridge Drive in Newhall, according to Natalie Arriaga, spokesperson for the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station.

I could think of a few better headlines than the one you choose! It makes it sound like the deputy was the troublemaker. Deputies and police officers have enough trouble and headlines like this just add to their situation!
Was the car towed away?
This guy has been a trouble maker in the neighborhood for a year now. Glad SCV Sheriff’s caught up to him.
And some think that therapist should handle the homeless.
KMS, What do you suggest to help the homeless? Have you reached out to lend a helping hand or donated or volunteered at any local shelter? We are all gods children and must help each other in times of need. We all should pray for these unfortunate individuals.
Hi Pastor, where is your church? I am always looking for places to send homeless people.
Pastor Jeff, Yes we all need to pray for them & take compassionate Human action like building more mental & jail institutions for these lost creatures. The Liberals pseudo compassion is not working when driven by Demonic condoning that not only prolongs the suffering of Vagrants, but entire communities of decent humans.
