Parks Bureau Deputies arrest man for possession of Heroin adjacent to park

On March 23, 2013, Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Deputies from the Parks Bureau Special Problems Team observed a male adult sitting in a parked truck with the driver’s door open at the rear of a Motel, adjacent to Castaic Lake Park. The deputies noticed what appeared to be a hypodermic needle in the man’s hand and it appeared he was about to inject his foot. The deputies detained him and identified the suspect as a resident of Valencia.

After further investigation it was determined that the suspect had a Felony warrant for Possession for Sales of Heroin and he was also in possession of a small baggie which contained Heroin.
He was immediately arrested and booked at Santa Clarita Station Possession for Sales of Heroin and the felony warrant.

Castaic Lake Park is located at 32132 Ridge Route Road Castaic.

The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Departments Parks Bureau is dedicated to providing a safe and drug free environment at all Los Angeles County Parks.
