LASPA is heartbroken by the tragic loss of Deputy Levi Vargas, a dedicated member of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department assigned to San Dimas Station, who passed away after suffering a medical emergency while representing his Department during the 2026 Baker to Vegas Challenge Cup Relay.
Deputy Vargas served the people of Los Angeles County with honor, professionalism, and commitment, and his loss is deeply felt across the law enforcement community.
We extend our deepest condolences to his wife, family, friends, and partners during this incredibly difficult time, and we stand with the men and women of the San Dimas Station as they mourn one of their own. His service and sacrifice will not be forgotten.
