Detective Bureau Special Operation Nets 13 Arrests In Santa Clarita

Officials with the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station conducted a special operation targeting retail theft Wednesday, resulting in 13 arrests being made, officials said.

On Wednesday, detectives with the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station Detective Bureau ran a special operation in Canyon Country aimed at stopping retail theft, according to Shirley Miller, spokesperson for the station.

“Deputies and detectives, both uniformed and in civilian clothes, saturated popular Canyon Country shopping areas, watching for individuals who were victimizing businesses or compromising public safety,” Miller said in an official post Thursday.

By the end of the operation, a total of 13 arrests had been made as a result of the operation, according to officials.

“Nearly half were for theft-related charges and the others were for narcotics and outstanding warrants,” Miller said. 

Officials said that similar operations are set to be planned in the future due to the success they typically achieve.

“Since these special enforcement operations, in addition to our regular patrol, have proved to be very successful, more will be planned in the future,” Miller said.
