When our Santa Maria station Deputies heard about

When our Santa Maria station Deputies heard about a drive by parade, honoring a U.S. Marine Veteran, who was turning 100, they had to join the festivities! Arnold McLean was a prisoner of war and survived the 1942 Bataan Death March in the Pacific Theater of WWII. Deputies, some of who have also served in the military, were honored to salute him in a drive by salute, for his service and for turning 💯! 🇺🇸 #sbsheriff #driveby #salute #marines #usa #service #hero #veteran #military #pow #deathmarch #survivor #respect #americanflag #patriot #onceamarinealwaysamarine #truehero #lawenforcement #805strong

At about 6:11 this morning, @chp_santabarbara requested assistance from Goleta Deputies, to check the area for a reported sighting of a stolen vehicle. A deputy spotted the vehicle parked on a side street and it immediately sped away, northbound on Turnpike. Deputies followed the vehicle, but before they caught up to it, the driver lost control and crashed into the curb turning westbound onto Cathedral Oaks. The driver ran from the vehicle, towards Tucker’s Grove Park, one passenger stayed inside and a third attempted to flee the scene. Deputies took two suspects into custody at the scene, while additional deputies set up a perimeter in the surrounding area. @sbso_k9s Odin and Duke assisted with a search for the outstanding suspect and he was eventually located and taken into custody. The 3 suspects were booked at the Santa Barbara Main Jail. It was later learned that one of the subjects involved, had just been released from custody, after being arrested for vehicle theft and drug charges, one day prior. ••• In a separate but similar incident, deputies in Los Olivos also captured a suspect who stole a vehicle in the early morning hours. At 3:44 AM, deputies searched for a subject, who was looking into cars with a flashlight on the 2800 block of Via Alta. Upon arrival, a vehicle sped past deputies, going in the opposite direction. The vehicle crossed Alamo Pintado and crashed into a tree. The driver fled on foot and was not located. At 8:39 AM, deputies responded to a report of a subject tampering with doors of a locked vehicle. A patrol Sergeant contacted the subject, who matched the description of the suspect from the earlier vehicle theft in that area. He was taken into custody and booked at Santa Barbara Jail by CHP, for vehicle theft, grand theft, hit and run without injury, burglary, and possession of stolen property. ••• Great teamwork from everyone involved in these separate incidents! We remind the public to lock your vehicles and remember to always take your valuables with you. 🔐 #sbsheriff #teamwork #lawenforcement #police #patrol #gta #custody #k9unit #deputy #k9handler #joinsbsheriff

Shortly after 9am, a Carpinteria Deputy attempted

Shortly after 9am, a Carpinteria Deputy attempted to initiate a traffic stop on a vehicle that smelled of burning rubber, in the 5700 block of Via Real. The vehicle sped away, crashed into several objects and cut through a construction area where workers were on foot, before driving up an embankment and landing on the Linden Overpass. The suspect ran from the vehicle, which was later found to be recently stolen and discovered it had been involved in several hit and run collisions. Deputies, with the assistance of @sbcasu and K9 Odin, tracked the suspect to the area of Franklin Park, where he was riding a bicycle he had just stolen. The suspect was arrested on numerous felony and misdemeanor charges and he was booked at the Santa Barbara County Jail. Our forensics unit stayed behind to process multiple crime scenes. 🚔 #teamwork #sbsheriff #carpinteria #santabarbra #k9 #airsupport #lawenforcement #patrol #deputy #footpursuit #pursuit #k9tracking #teamsheriff #joinsbsheriff #thinblueline

A few hours ago, a very adorable 5-year-old came by to drop off a note for deputies along with cookies (peanut butter chocolate chip🍪) that he made with his mom. Lieutenant Welch met Mason in the lobby before he took a tour of the station including checking out Sheriff Brown’s office. Mason asked the Sheriff which of the hats on his shelf he wore the most and then asked his tour guide, Sergeant Morris, to show him where the bandits are. #805strong #community #bettertogether #adorablekids
