VICTORVILLE, Calif. (VVNG.com) — A 24-year-old Victorville man out on bail was arrested again after he ran from deputies following a pursuit in a stolen vehicle early Tuesday morning.
On March 10, 2020, at about 6:38 am, the suspect, Ceasar Campos was driving a 1997 Honda Civic and a deputy observed the vehicle exceeding the posted speed limit at the intersection of Borego and Anacapa Roads.
The deputy attempted a traffic stop and the driver failed to yield, officials said.
After a brief pursuit, Campos pulled the Honda into a dirt alley off Bonanza Road and fled the vehicle on foot.
According to a sheriff’s news release, “Deputy Lenihan tracked Campos’ shoe tracks from the vehicle to a house on Cholame Road and to a trailer located at the back of the property. Campos was located inside the trailer and taken into custody.”
As Campos was being searched, suspected methamphetamine and a glass pipe were found in the waistband of his pants.
“A search of the Honda was conducted and inside a backpack in the car, a loaded firearm and multiple vehicle registration tags were recovered. As the deputy was conducting the vehicle search, Sheriff’s Dispatch received a call from the registered owner wanting to report his vehicle stolen,” stated the news release.
Ceasar Campos, who was found to be out of custody after posting a $25,000 bond on a recent case, was arrested and booked at High Desert Detention Center. His charges include evading a Peace Officer, vehicle theft, possession of a stolen vehicle, carrying a loaded firearm during the commission of a felony, and vehicle registration fraud. He is being held in lieu of $100,000 bail and is scheduled to appear in Victorville Superior Court on March 12, 2020.
