Thank you for subscribing to NIXLE! As the leader for Zone-3 it is my goal to keep you informed of the very latest crime trends and public safety information. I am pleased to tell you that the solid partnerships between the community and law enforcement are paying big dividends right now as crime in the residential areas is very low. The Zone-3 communities continue to hold some of the lowest crime rates in Southern California however, the commercial areas within this Zone have experienced an increase in thefts, both inside the retail establishments and outside in the parking lots this year.
During the late evening hours on 06/08/2012, a commercial burglary occurred at a vacant restaurant located at the 25900 block of The Old Road. Restaurant supplies were stolen.
Between 06/06/2012 and 06/07/2012, a flat-bed trailer was stolen from a storage area at Henry Mayo Drive/HWY 126.
In the afternoon of 6/8/2012, a shoplift-burglary occurred at a clothing store at the 25900 block of The Old Road. The suspect, described as an adult female/Hispanic, stole numerous articles of clothing and then fled in a white GMC SUV that was driven by an additional suspect.
In the evening hours, between 6/13/2012 and 6/14/2012, a Big-Rig truck was stolen from the 22400 block of The Old Road. It was later recovered in another jurisdiction.
Magic Mountain incidents: During this period there were three reported incidents of theft occurring from the platforms of various rides at the park. In each case, personal items such as cell phones, I-Pods, wallets, and purses were stolen. Additionally, there were two reported vehicle burglaries which occurred in the Magic Mountain parking areas. Visitors to the Park are urged to secure their valuables in the lockers rather than leave them on the Ride platforms where they are vulnerable to theft. As always, you should never leave valuables in your automobile in plain view.
Remember, by continuing to work together we will send a “not in Santa Clarita” message.
