The man was refusing to leave and reportedly had a hatchet in his hand.
The man left before Deputies arrived and was seen getting into a vehicle driven by another person.
Deputies checked the area, located the vehicle, and initiated a traffic stop. As the vehicle stopped, the man suspected of trespassing fled towards Pierce Dr. Deputies and CHP were unable to locate the subject.
The vehicle was searched and did not contain the hatchet, nor did the subject have it in his hands as he ran away from the car.
