Tragedy struck when a San Bernardino County Sheriff's deputy was killed in a crash in Victorville. The incident occurred around noon at El Evado and Seneca roads, shortly after a reported pursuit in the area. While the Sheriff's Department has yet to confirm if the pursuit is linked to the crash, aerial footage showed a vehicle split into two parts, with a deceased person near the wreckage. Our thoughts are with the deputy’s family and colleagues during this difficult time.
