   The Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station Crime Prevention Unit arrested   
   nine people, including a father and son duo, during a retail theft   
   operation in Canyon Country on Tuesday, according to Deputy Robert Jensen,   
   spokesman for the station.   
      
   Deputies began the operation Tuesday afternoon looking for people who were   
   conducting organized retail theft at the Plaza at Golden Valley, said   
   Jensen. They were able to arrest six on suspicion of organized retail   
   theft crimes and three others on outstanding warrants, he said.   
      
   “We have stats to show that this shopping center on Golden Valley (Road)   
   had the highest theft last year for us,” he said.   
      
   Jensen said the first arrest was at the 19300 block of Golden Valley Road.   
   Jesus Pedroza, 36, Van Nuys had a warrant for his arrest and was arrested   
   on suspicion of transporting or selling controlled substances and identify   
   theft with a prior conviction.   
      
   Jayland Brumfield, 25, of Palmdale, was arrested off Golden Valley Road   
   near the SCV Sheriff’s Station and also had multiple outstanding warrants,   
   including possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, driving under the   
   influence and driving on a suspended license, according to Jensen.   
      
   Haykaram Petrosyan, 46, of North Hollywood, and his 15-year-old son were   
   arrested on suspicion of 80 cosmetic bottles from the Target on the 19100   
   block of Golden Valley Road, costing over $500 and another $500 in other   
   stolen items, according to Jensen. Petrosyan was arrested on suspicion of   
   retail theft, in addition to delinquency of a minor for bringing his son   
   to commit a crime and son was detained.   
      
   Canyon Country resident Esbeide Quinonez, 66, was also arrested at the   
   Target on suspicion of shoplifting after getting caught concealing items   
   in her jacket, Jensen said.   
      
   The last three suspects arrested were Mark Green, 46, of Rosamond, and   
   Bridgett Leonetti, 36, of Lancaster, on suspicion of organized retail   
   theft at the 19000 block of Golden Valley Road along with Ricardo Ordaz,   
   42, of Lancaster. Ordaz was arrested on suspicion of petty theft with two   
   prior convictions. Jensen said the three individuals were also found to be   
   involved in stealing over $2,400 in merchandise from Dick’s Sporting Goods   
   in Centre Pointe and $400 from a nearby Home Depot.   
      
   In addition, deputies arrested a 24-year-old Canyon Country resident on an   
   outstanding driving under the influence misdemeanor warrant on Lost Canyon   
   Road and Wren Drive, according to Jensen. The suspect was cited at the   
   scene.   
      
   “It was a highly successful operation. We worked very well with the loss   
   prevention officers at all the stores we were involved in,” said Jensen.   
      
   He added that deputies will still be carrying out retail theft operations   
   despite the holiday season being over and, with Proposition 36 now in   
   effect, suspects who steal from businesses are expected to be prosecuted.
