var items = [4,5,6,1,2,3,4,8 ,5,9];
var newArray = items.slice(5,1 0).concat(items .slice(0,5));

var items = [4,5,6,1,2,3,4,8 ,5,9];

JFTR, all of these would require an additional loop to find the index of
the element with the value 3. "There's more than one way to do it"...

If that was a requirement, yes. *But* the OP didn't say how the index
used to split the array was chosen, only that for the example it was
from the element with value 3 (i.e. index 5).
