 UPDATE 5:30 PM: Lt. Elisabeth Sachs at Crescenta Valley station said that they received a prowler call at the 2200 block of Mar Vista at about 11 AM; at about that time, a burglar alarm went off at that location. After a 45 minute containment, deputies had one suspect in custody, but a total of three were reported involved. There was evidency of burglary, but they don’t think anybody got into the house.
