Deputies from the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station responded to a call at the 27300 block of Valle Del Oro Friday night in Newhall regarding a 35-year-old man bleeding, who was later pronounced dead, according to a social media post by the SCV Sheriff’s Station.
According to the post, the male did not die via a gunshot wound, but apparently was injured after jumping an iron fence.
Initially, authorities were investigating reports of a potential gunshot victim near the intersection of Via Canon and Via Estrella on Friday night, according to the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station.
“There was a call for service that was reported as a gunshot victim,” said Deputy Justin Boosalis.
According to Boosalis, deputies first received reports of the incident at 8:20 p.m. and arrived on the scene about two minutes later.
