Madera County Sheriff’s Office deputies found a car that was stuck in standing water after Tuesday’s storm, and found 50 2.5 gallon containers of ag chemicals in the car, worth approximately $10,000. The suspect, who later returned to the scene, was arrested.

During storms, people are told to not drive through standing water, but for once the Madera County Sheiff’s Office is grateful someone didn’t listen.

On Tuesday, after the storm passed through, MCSO deputies were dispatched to the area of Road 32 and Avenue 12 regarding a vehicle stuck in a field with water, and mud up to the vehicle’s doors.

Two subjects were seen standing in the mud near the vehicle. In addition, the witness reported that a nearby ag storage unit had been burglarized.
