Deputies conducting a traffic stop early Friday morning found themselves chasing a suspect in Valencia.
Deputies were trying to find a suspect in the Valencia Promenade apartments on the 24000 block of Magic Mountain Parkway, after an individual had run from a traffic stop, according to Lt. Eric Lasko of the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station.
“We’re working on it right now,” said Lasko at approximately 8:30 a.m. Friday.
Deputies later found that the suspect was believed to have dropped his T-shirt during the on-foot pursuit, according to Lasko.
“He’s wanted for a traffic violation,” said Lasko.
Deputies were reportedly gathering evidence and searching a vehicle in a parking lot down the street from the Promenade apartments at 8:40 a.m.
No suspect had yet been taken into custody as of 11:30 a.m., Lasko said.
This is a breaking news story, and more information will be added as it’s available.
