Officers Gordon and Bernard were traveling Eastbound on Sunnydale Avenue when they observed a Red Chrysler, with a broken taillight; pull over to the side of the road directly in front of them. The officers conducted a traffic stop and contacted the driver. The suspect informed the officers he did not have a driver’s license.  The officers did a records check and found out that the suspect had an outstanding traffic warrant and had never been issued a driver’s license. The suspect was arrested and transported back to Ingleside station. Upon arrival, the officers found small baggie, containing Methamphetamine, tucked deep inside his coat pocket.

Officer Edais, who is a member of the San Francisco City College Campus Police, was on patrol when he observed a vehicle run the posted Stop sign at the intersection of Judson and Gennessee Avenue. Officer Edais proceeded to stop the vehicle for the violation and contacted the driver. While speaking with her, Officer Edais smelled a strong odor of Marijuana coming from inside the vehicle. The driver explained that her boyfriend uses her vehicle and smokes Marijuana inside of it all the time. The driver was adamant that she did not have any Marijuana on her person nor was there any inside the vehicle and gave the officer permission to search. Officer Edais did just that, and during the search, found a small bag filled with Marijuana. The officer confiscated the drug and cited the driver for both the stop sign violation and possession of the Marijuana. Report Number: 130271038

CRIME ALERT:  There has been an increase in auto boostings around Precita Park and the surrounding area.  Don’t be a Victim.
Take extra precautions to avoid a criminal window-shopping inside your car. Never give them a reason to break into your car and steal your belongings.

                                                          Safety Tips:
*Try to park in a well- lit area and always lock your doors and secure your windows.
*Do not leave possessions on the seat or in plain view.
*Never hide belongings under the seat: This is the first place burglars check.
*Never cover expensive items with an article of clothing or blanket:  This presents a hidden clue to thieves that items may be underneath.
*Do not leave any important documents inside your car that contain your personal information.
* Do not leave phone or MP3 chargers plugged in: this leads the burglar to believe there are expensive electronics inside your car.

Remember, if a criminal is unsuccessful and is not benefitting from his criminal activity, the thief will move on, thus making your neighborhood less of a target.
