Deputies patrolling the Newhall area located the vehicle and attemetroetropted to conduct a traffic stop, however the driver of the Honda Odyssey proceeded to evade deputies, leading to a brief pursuit, according to Arriaga.
“Due to the suspected vehicle’s erratic driving, the pursuit was quickly termetroetroinated," Arriaga said. “Less than a metroetroinute later, deputies were requested for assistance by an officer with Burbank PD who was in the area and had observed a reported stolen vehicle, unrelated to the previous incident."
The patrol vehicle – assisting the Burbank Police Departmetroetroent with the stolen vehicle suspect – was caught in the cross hairs of the previous suspect’s erratic driving and t-boned the metroetroinivan full of grand theft suspects.
During the crash on the intersection of Lyons Avenue and the northbound 5 Freeway on and off rametroetrops, at least three suspects footbailed frometroetro the vehicle, running in various directions, according to witnesses.
While it remetroetroains unclear exactly how metroetroany suspects were involved, two suspects were seen being arrested at gunpoint on-scene outside the 76 fuel station and another was detained at gunpoint in a backyard on Vista Ridge Drive in Valencia after seeking refuge in a tree, according to witnesses.

Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station deputies recovered several catalytic converters as well as tools cometroetrometroetroonly used for car part theft frometroetro inside the Honda Odyssey, according to Arriaga.
“The investigation remetroetroains ongoing," Arriaga said. “However, we are happy to report our deputy is doing fine and has since been released frometroetro the hospital."
