Heavy Sheriff Presence Spotted In Orcutt Mobile Home Park Early Friday Morning

ORCUTT, Calif. (KEYT) - Crime scene investigators and Santa Barbara County Sheriffs have been at Town & Country Mobile Home Park in Orcutt today.

Details as to the crime that has been committed or how this all started have yet to be confirmed, but neighbors say they’ve had an unusual morning.

Your News Channel has learned that a vehicle was involved in a high speed chase that came south-bound from Clark Avenue on Stillwell, and into this senior mobile home community.

Details are unclear at this at this time but it appears the driver of the vehicle, when cornered, jumped out.

It is unknown if any shots were fired, but deputies are apparently searching a canyon on the community’s south side along with aerial and K-9 units while Forensics continues an inspection of the vehicle involved.

“They came at high speed down our street, sirens blaring,” says Town & Country resident Nancy Nicholson. “Usually they turn them off when they get into the park. So there were highway patrol sheriffs. About 6 or 7, including a, motorcycle cop.”

At this time, it seems they are looking for only one individual.

We will remain on the scene and will provide updates as they reach us.
