A man from Colorado was arrested at a Del Taco location after he allegedly stole a Mustang from a woman at a San Bernardino County gas station. 

A media release from the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department indicates that deputies were dispatched to the Shell station located at 8986 Deep Creek Road in Apple Valley just before 8 a.m. Thursday. 

“The suspect allegedly ran up behind a customer standing near her vehicle [and] attempted to grab her cellphone from her hand,” SBSD said. “The victim was able to hold on to her phone, but the suspect grabbed her 2014 Mustang GT car keys from her and pushed her to the ground.” 

After taking the keys, the suspect, identified as Jacob Naro of Pueblo, Colorado, ran toward the victim’s vehicle and attempted to start the engine, but was said to have been briefly stopped by a gas station attendant. 

“A gas station employee reached into the vehicle and attempted to remove Naro…[he] then allegedly pushed the gas station employee out of the vehicle onto the ground and drove away,” officials said. 

Upon locating the stolen Mustang, deputies initiated a pursuit, during which Naro drove on the wrong side of the road, did not stop at traffic signals, and drove with “complete disregard for public safety.” 

Naro, 28, eventually stopped the vehicle at a permanently closed Del Taco store located near CA-138 and the 15 Freeway in the community of Phelan; he was quickly taken into custody without further incident, authorities stated.

Exactly how long the pursuit lasted was not disclosed. 

The Colorado native was booked into the High Desert Detention Center for robbery, carjacking, felony evading and evading by driving in opposite lanes of traffic and was being held in lieu of $100,000 bail.

A car flipped off an embankment and landed on its roof after a crash on the 10 Freeway overnight. 

The collision, which involved three vehicles, took place on the westbound span of the 10 near Vermont Avenue in L.A.’s Pico-Union neighborhood around 1:30 a.m. Saturday, CHP officials said. 

Video from the scene shows the car, a gray sedan, being flipped back onto its wheels and being loaded onto a tow truck.

The other vehicles involved in the crash were also towed from the scene. 

No injuries were reported, and what caused the collision is not yet known. 

A Southern California family is distraught after a thief stole an adaptive tricycle from a young girl with a rare neurological disorder.

Surveillance videos captured the theft outside of a Lawndale home on Thursday at around 7:30 a.m. A man is seen walking in the neighborhood when he spots the bike in the victim’s front yard.

He walks over and inspects the bike before rolling it across the neighborhood street and placing it into his black van parked around the corner.

The bike belongs to Alli, a 7-year-old girl who has a rare genetic mutation that causes neurological issues and limits her mobility. 

The girl’s mother, Elisabeth Booth, said Alli’s condition causes epilepsy, dyskinesia, developmental delay, speech issues and motor issues. Alli is also on the autism spectrum and is nonverbal. 

The adaptive bike was custom-made for the girl’s physical therapy and is vital to strengthening her legs while allowing her to keep up with other neighborhood children.

“She has a twin brother and we go out on bike rides,” Elisabeth said. “This allows her to ride with us and be a part of everyday activities with regular, typical kids.”

Elisabeth bought the bike several years ago secondhand and paid $1,700 for it. The bike is custom-fit to Alli and Elizabeth said she cannot afford to purchase a new one.

“It’s adjusted to exactly her leg length, so, the end seam measurements,” the mother explained. “Her seat is exactly where it needs to be so that her knee comes up at a 90-degree angle.”

Elisabeth said she didn’t understand why the thief would take the bike, especially knowing it looked unique and likely belonged to a child with special needs.

“I’m shocked that, at any point, he didn’t think to himself that this bike is needed for a child and that he just took off with it without a care in the world,” Elisabeth said. “This is a child’s trike who needs it to feel like a part of the kids and the community. She misses it and wants it back.”

By releasing surveillance video of the theft, Elisabeth hopes someone will recognize the suspect or his black van.
