On Friday, Dec. 6, around midnight, a snowman decoration was stolen from a homeowner's yard on the 27900 block of Skycrest Circle. The theft, which was captured on a neighbor's security camera, shows a SUV pull up in front of the victim's home. The driver, a male adult, exits the vehicle and when he returns, he is holding the Christmans decoration in his arm. He placed the decoration in the backseat of the vehicle and drove off.

A few minutes later, another theft was reported by a homeowner on the same street who said that her "Elf on the Shelf" lawn ornament was stolen from her front yard. She reported seeing two males running towards the street. One of the males was dragging her inflatable Christmas decoration. The two males got into a SUV and drove out of view.

If you have any information that may lead to the identification of the suspect(s), please call Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff's Detective Bureau at 661-255-1121, ext. 5146, or tips can be submitted anonymously to www.LACrimeStoppers.org or by calling 1-800-222-8477.
