BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KBAK\/KBFX) \u2014 A man was arrested after allegedly leading deputies on a pursuit near Caliente Bodfish Road. The pursuit ended with deputies recovering more than $60,000 in merchandise stolen from a BNSF Railway train.<\/p>\n

The Kern County Sheriff\u2019s Office said on November 3, 2026, at around 7 a.m., a deputy assigned to the Walker Basin Substation found a suspicious vehicle and tried to conduct a traffic stop.<\/p>\n

KCSO said the vehicle failed to yield and led the deputy on a pursuit through Bena Road and Baker Grade Road.<\/p>\n

Additional deputies from the surrounding areas responded to help as the suspect drove away near the 27000 of Caliente Bodfish Road.<\/p>\n

Deputies established a perimeter with the assistance of air support, department-issued drones, and a canine.<\/p>\n

KCSO said the suspect, Miguel Aldaco, was found in a culvert where he ran away.<\/p>\n

Deputies pursued while air support and canine continued to track Aldaco. Aldaco was eventually found and placed under arrest for evading arrest, possession of stolen property, obstruct\/resist arrest, possession of burglary tools, no evidence of current vehicle registration, and an outstanding misdemeanor bench warrant.<\/p>\n

It is estimated that over $60,000 worth of merchandise was recovered, which was confirmed to be stolen from a BNSF Railway train, according to KCSO.<\/p>\n
