Local authorities claim that he was violating social distancing rules, despite being all alone.
In a Facebook post about the incident, the Lost Hills Sheriff’s Station said that “deputies were flagged down by lifeguards regarding a male adult in the water, disobeying lifeguard orders to exit the water.”
The post continued on to claim that the man “remained in the water paddle boarding for approximately 30-40 minutes. LASD boat was brought in from Marina Del Rey Station, once the Sheriff’s boat arrived on scene, the suspect complied and swam to shore.”
The unnamed man was arrested for Disobeying a Lifeguard and Violation of Government Code for not complying with Gov. Gavin Newsom’s Stay-at-Home order. He is now facing up to a $1,000 fine, up to six months in jail — or both.
Earlier this week a surfer in Manhattan Beach was fined $1,000 after ignoring orders to get out of the ocean.

This has got to be a joke?!?
Leftists are having fun practicing total control over citizens. The Demshoviks love it

Our Country has lost its mind.
Nothing else to say.
Liberal millennial who hopefully is now a conservative.
Yup. It’s not about the disease. It’s about the control. I’m sick of this.
REPORT RECOMMENDS POLICIES TO ENSURE FUTURE STATE RESPONSES TO DISEASES ARE BASED ONLY ON SCIENCE, NOT POLITICS
DECEMBER 3, 2015
NEW YORK — A report released today examining the U.S. response to Ebola in 2014 warns against politically motivated and scientifically unwarranted quarantines, which the report found violated individuals’ rights and hampered efforts to end the outbreak at its source in West Africa by discouraging American doctors and nurses from going there.
The report was written by the American Civil Liberties Union and the Yale Global Health Justice Partnership, which is a joint program of the Yale School of Public Health and Yale Law School.
Yep. On top of that I’d guess the the economic wagon has already gone over the cliff. The collapse is coming and won’t be stopped.
It always has been.
He was definitely a danger to himself. And if he caught it from being in the ocean he would then be a danger to anyone he came in contact with.
Yes, you can catch it from being on the beach or on/in the water near the beach.
Have fun out there. Eventually we either give up and let everybody catch it or something worse will happen from the lack of economic activity.
Brings new meaning to “Hobson’s Choice”.
Corrupt Democrats drunk on power.
This is actually the result of NOT giving out honest information. People do stupid things, like spraying bleach on their food, for example.
I have a makeshift garage about half a mile from home.
Nobody goes there except me.
I dread when the local control freaks and chicken little types decide to restrict my area. So far the gendarmes have been doing ok.
I can pull tools and small stuff home.The bg items have nowhere to go that I think of.
>>was fined $1,000
state wants everyone’s $1200 check.
Ah, well. I give them credit for not going into the guy's backyard and shooting his dog.
The cops look pretty dumb there with no spatial distancing, no gloves and no masks.
Yep.
