On June 23, 2008, deputies assigned to the Santa Clara Valley station were extra patrolling the area of the 12th Street Bridge and the Santa Clara River in an effort to enforce the “zero tolerance” of graffiti vandalism in and around the Santa Clara Valley. The deputies happened upon Julian Camarillo and Amador Leal, both from Santa Paula, in the act of spray painting and writing their local “tagging crew’s” moniker on the Santa Clara River bridge. Both subjects were arrested for vandalism and booked at the Ventura County Jail.

Anyone with information about graffiti vandalism, or any other crime, are urged to call Crime Stoppers at (805) 524-0970 (Fillmore) or the Fillmore Police Department at (805) 524-2233.
