Sacramento County deputies have detained a suspect in a Taco Bell robbery who was found hiding under the deck of a home on Friday evening.

Around 5 p.m., the Sacramento County Sheriff's Office said it had a perimeter set up around a home along the 4300 block of Rio Tinto Avenue in the Arden-Arcade area. 

Deputies said they believe a suspect who allegedly robbed a Taco Bell with a gun was believed to be in a home that he crashed into on nearby Edison Avenue during a short pursuit. Around 7:50 p.m., officials said they located the suspect, only identified as a 35-year-old man, under the deck of a home on Robie Lee Way.

The sheriff's office has not said if a firearm was located.

Nearby homes were evacuated. Four schools — Whitney Avenue Elementary, Pasadena Avenue Elementary, Arcade Middle and Mira Loma High — were also in a precautionary shelter-in-place, the San Juan Unified School District said. 

No injuries have been reported.
