A Santa Clarita vandalism suspect was arrested Monday after he allegedly damaged a vehicle with a baseball bat and fled from deputies on foot.
Around 8:20 p.m. Monday, deputies responded to Santa Clarita Park in the 27000 block of Seco Canyon Road in Saugus regarding an assault with a deadly weapon call for service, said Deputy Candice Gonzales, a spokesperson for the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station.
“It was reported by multiple witnesses that the male adult was throwing a baseball bat,” Gonzales said.
When deputies arrived, they were directed by witnesses towards the direction where the suspect had been last seen running away, Gonzales said.
“As deputies attempted to detain the suspect matching the description, the suspect refused to comply with their orders and a brief foot pursuit ensued resulting in force,” Gonzales said.
It was later discovered the suspect used the baseball bat causing permanent damage to the victim’s vehicle, according to Gonzales.
Matthew Delio, 33, from Santa Clarita, was arrested for felony vandalism, Gonzales added.
Delio was arrested and transported to the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station jail with bail set at $20,000, according to officials.
