SPRING VALLEY LAKE, Calif. (VVNG.com) — A 38-year-old Hesperia man was arrested after leading police on a pursuit that ended when he crashed into a parked car in the community of Spring Valley Lake.

On Monday, August 29, 2022, at approximately 2:08 a.m., a deputy from the Victorville Police Department was assisting with patrol in Spring Valley Lake.
