The Pitchess Detention Center alarm sounded Monday morning in Castaic, but no jailbreak was reported, officials said.

Around 12:40 a.m. Monday, the siren for the Pitchess Detention Center in Castaic was heard throughout the Santa Clarita Valley, said Sgt. Benjamin Grubb, a spokesperson for the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Information Bureau.

Though the alarm went off, officials confirmed that no inmate had escaped, Grubb said.

The Pitchess Detention Center hosts three areas with varying levels of security: East, South, and North County Correctional Facility.

The detention center is located in Castaic, just off the 5 freeway, and is 2,620 acres. It used to be known as the Wayside Honor Rancho, and some people still refer to it by that name.

As of the publication of this article, it is unclear what caused the jail alarm to sound, according to Sheriff officials.
