Call the police.Crime Alert: Glen Park BART Station and surrounding area; A recent trend in robberies are occurring where suspect(s) are running up behind an unsuspecting victim and proceed to shove or push them to the ground and then forcefully take their cell phone, MP3 player and/or other valuable belongings. If you happen to see what may seem like a fight taking place on the street, it could actually be a robbery taking place. Immediately call (415) 553-8090 from your cell phone or “911” from a landline. Ingleside Police Officers are stepping up their efforts and increasing patrol to the area as well as sending our plain clothes officers to conduct surveillance.

Weather related safety; Due to the inclement weather involving high winds, there have been numerous downed power lines and fallen tree limbs throughout the city. If there is a power line down in your neighborhood, for your own safety, do not approach it and stay a safe distance away while calling “911”. Our headquarters will dispatch officers as well as the appropriate department to come out and assess the situation and repair the damage. If there is a fallen tree limb, call “311” and request DPW (Department of Public Works) to come out and handle the hazard. Also, be sure to look up to see if there are any broken tree limbs that are hanging from the tree that can pose a threat to people and/or property. Call “311” immediately.
Public Safety; In light of recent events at the Boston marathon, the police department will be increasing patrols in areas where the public gather including special events. If you see a suspicious package that does not look right or does not belong in the area, do not investigate it yourself.

Arrests:
9:51pm 2800 Blk Diamond Theft
Officers Lustenberger and Chew were patrolling the Glen Park neighborhood when they answered a report of a group of citizens detaining a theft suspect. When the officers arrived, they found two citizens had detained a man and a woman suspected of stealing a bag from a nearby business. One of the citizens told the officers that he was sitting, with his bag on a table, when he turned away for a moment. When he looked back, the bag, containing his passport and other personal items, was gone. He quickly ran outside and saw a woman holding the bag and walking down the street with an unknown man. He approached the woman and yelled, “That’s my bag” and pulled it from her grasp. The theft victim, along with an employee who followed the victim from the business, then detained both suspects until officers Chew and Lustenberger arrived. The theft victim signed a citizen’s arrest and the woman was booked at Ingleside Station for the theft. Her male companion, who claimed he didn’t know the suspect, was released.
