Welcome Mat Wasn’t Out for Night Visitors

The sheriff’s substation in Laguna Niguel invites people to drop in, but visitors early Tuesday arrived with an unexpected bang.
Sheriff’s deputies and the California Highway Patrol said a pickup truck with two Laguna Hills teen-agers went out of control and slammed into the back porch of the substation, on Crown Valley Parkway near Hillhurst Drive.
The CHP, which investigated the 1 a.m. accident, said the driver was David Brian Vallelunga, 19, and his passenger was Sean Simpson, 18. Neither was injured. A witness in another vehicle told the CHP that Vallelunga veered sharply, losing control of the pickup.
No one was cited. The Sheriff’s Department reported minor damage to the porch.
