A man was arrested after allegedly threatening bystanders and a deputy with a metal pole in San Bernardino County.
On Tuesday, authorities responded to the intersection of Chamberlaine Way and Aster Road in Adelanto at around 8:33 a.m.
Witnesses said the suspect, Luis Perez, 34, was hiding in bushes before running toward vehicles and attempting to smash them with a large metal pole.
At one point, Perez jumped onto a passing car and struck the roof several times before jumping off.
When deputies arrived at the scene, Perez reportedly threw a 4-foot metal pole at them and attempted to run away.
After a short foot pursuit, Perez was taken into custody without further incident.
He was arrested for assault with a deadly weapon and false imprisonment and is being held on $70,000 bail.
The incident remains under investigation. Anyone with information can contact Deputy D. Steuerwald at the Victor Valley Sheriff’s Station at 760-552-6800.
