Traffic Stop Leads to Apprehension of Possible Drug Dealer

An early-morning traffic stop in Newhall on Sunday quickly turned into a ‘drug bust’ after Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff's Station deputies uncovered evidence suggesting the driver was involved in narcotics sales.

Deputies initially stopped the vehicle to warn and/or cite the driver for expired registration and a non-working brake light. When they contacted the driver, a 34-year-old man from Sylmar, one of the deputies spotted suspected narcotics sitting in plain view.

A search of the vehicle uncovered an amount of methamphetamine equivalent to more than 200 individual doses along with a digital scale, multiple cell phones, and cash in assorted denominations. Deputies also learned the man had multiple prior narcotics-related arrests.

The suspect was arrested on several felony charges, including: Transporting/Selling Methamphetamine,  Possession of Methamphetamine and Possession of Methamphetamine with Priors. He remains in custody on no bail. 

Our deputies remain committed to protecting our Santa Clarita Valley residents from illegal drug activity and keeping our community safe!
