On Saturday, October 31, 2026, at approximately 2:33 PM, a patrol deputy was travelling eastbound on SR 126 at Briggs Road. The deputy observed a green Honda Civic that was a reported stolen vehicle out of the City of Oxnard. The deputy attempted to conduct a traffic stop, the vehicle failed to yield, and a vehicle pursuit was initiated. As the pursuit reached Fillmore city limits, the driver began to drive at a high rate of speed and drove on the wrong side of the road. The pursuit was terminated for public safety concerns. A short time later, a community member called and reported the vehicle was stopped in the 200 block of Santa Clara Street and observed the driver flee on foot. Sheriff’s resources, including a helicopter, responded to the area to search for the suspect. After a lengthy search, the suspect was not located. The stolen vehicle was returned to the registered owner, and the investigation is ongoing by Fillmore detectives. Info credit Fillmore PD. Photo credit Angel Esquivel.
