Earlier this week, Vanguard Protection Patrol Officers assigned to the Valencia patrol area responded to reports of a male subject attempting to break into residences in a client’s gated community. Arriving shortly after the initial call, an Officer located the subject in the bushes along side a residence within the community, surrounded by the residents who had initially placed the call. The officer was able to order the suspect out of the bushes and place him under arrest without incident. It was later found that the suspect had claimed to be a Police Officer and have a handgun on his person. Additionally, the suspect was reported to have threatened several of the residents with physical harm and to kill the arresting Officer. The Suspect was transferred to the custody of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department Santa Clarita Station, pending charges of attempted burglary, criminal threats, and trespassing. https://vanguardprotectiongroup.com/blog/

Last week, a Vanguard Protection Patrol Officer assigned to the Castaic patrol area was dispatched to a call reporting a nude and possibly intoxicated person running around a parking lot. Upon arrival, the Officer found a crowd of bystanders gathered around a male/white/adult wearing only a pair of shorts; the subject was sitting on a ledge with a woman holding his upper body upright and yelling for the male to wake up.
The Officer quickly determined that the male was not breathing, unresponsive, and in need of immediate life-saving care. He immediately requested medical assistance and began rendering aid to the male subject. Eventually, the male began breathing again and was stabilized until fire fighters from the Los Angeles County Fire Department arrived and transported the subject to the hospital for emergency treatment.
Recently Vanguard Protection received a call for service regarding a trespasser on one of our clients’ properties in Santa Clarita. The response request came in as a standard call, and nothing was mentioned about any weapons. However, upon arriving to the location and making contact with the suspect it was quickly observed that the homeless woman (who has a history of methamphetamine use as well as mental illness) had not one, but two large knives – a butcher knife and a large filet knife.
This type of contact is unfortunately growing more common here in Santa Clarita. It illustrates why it is never a good idea to make contact with an unknown person yourself if they are trespassing on your property. There is no way to know what mental state the person may be in, if they are under the influence of alcohol or drugs, if they are armed, their previous criminal history, or what their intentions are.
Our Vanguard Protection officer safely handled the response call, and our clients were once again kept safe. If you have had issues with transients or other people trespassing on your property in Santa Clarita, please contact us to discuss the problem and see how we can help address the issue. Remember, not only is it a huge liability for you or an employee to handle yourself, but it is also dangerous and unsafe.
Last week, Vanguard Protection patrol officers assigned to the Canyon Country patrol area received a call for service at a client property located on Soledad Canyon Rd. Reporting parties stated that they had caught a person looking through their windows and had detained him while awaiting assistance. While en-route to the call, Vanguard Protection officers were updated that the man was being beaten by one or more people from the group.
Upon arriving to the call location, officers discovered a large mob of people surrounding a single male victim who was bleeding in the middle of the street. After alerting the Los Angeles Country Sheriff’s Department, Vanguard Protection officers were able to push the crowd back and render assistance to the victim, who had sustained significant injuries to his head and face.
After turning the victim over to Los Angeles County Fire Department paramedics for medical treatment, Vanguard Protection Officers assisted the investigating Sheriff’s deputies in controlling bystanders and collecting statements from witnesses.
On Wednesday, July 21st 2021 at appx 11:00pm, a Vanguard officer was patrolling a community in Canyon Country when he observed a rollover crash. The subject allegedly appeared to be impaired and required assistance due to his injuries.
The officer, who was first on scene, rendered aid to the driver and requested both the Los Angeles County Sheriff Department (LASD) as well as the the Los Angeles County Fire Department (LAFD) for additional assistance.
