Newhall, Zone 6
As the weather warms up, deputies from the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station generally see an increase in activity in our community as more people are enjoying being outdoors. Unfortunately, we also tend to see a rise in criminal activity during the summer months. Now is the time to always remember to lock your doors and windows, secure your vehicles, and never leave you valuables in plain view (especially in parked vehicles). Remember to always close and lock garage doors, and if you see any suspicious activity or vehicles in your neighborhood, please call the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station immediately at 661-255-1121.
