SANTA CLARITAThe Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department said Tuesday it will seek charges in Juvenile Court against an Arroyo Seco Junior High School student who turned over marijuana to his parents.   Tyler Hagen, 13, of Saugus could face a possession charge, while three other Arroyo students could be charged with offenses ranging from possession to the sale of a controlled substance on school grounds, according to Lt. Tim Peters of the Santa Clarita sheriff's station. 
   Sheriff's officials, without giving specific details, cast doubt on Tyler's story that he turned the drug over to his parents in order to help a scared friend dispose of the pot.   The department said in a statement that an investigation has "determined that the initial story from the juveniles could not be supported by the facts."   Tyler's parents, Chris and Linda Hagen, who could not be reached, have maintained that their son acted responsibly by handing over the marijuana, contending that drug-prevention programs encourage children to go to their parents when they have questions or problems with drugs.
