A Santa Clarita resident was arrested Thursday, on multiple felony charges after he allegedly threatened and pointed a gun at his ex-girlfriend.
Around 1:45 p.m. Thursday, the suspect drove to his ex-girlfriend’s residence on Robin Avenue in Saugus and pointed a handgun at her face, after making verbal threats to her over the telephone, said Deputy Candice Gonzales, spokesperson for the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station.
“The victim was in sustained fear for her life,” Gonzales said.
Through deputies’ investigations, they learned that he lived in Newhall.
Deputies searched the area and located the suspect, according to officials.
“The suspect was ultimately arrested at a Newhall residence and a search warrant recovered a firearm matching the victim’s description,” Gonzales said.
Ashley Dorsey, 30, from Newhall, was arrested for assault with a deadly weapon with a firearm and criminal threats, both felonies, Gonzales said.
Dorsey was arrested and transported to the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station’s jail with bail set at $50,000, according to Gonzales.
