Arrests:
3:31pm 800 Blk Moultrie Drugs
Ingleside Officers, after obtaining a search warrant, were on the lookout for a convicted felon. On the way to the felon’s residence, the officers were told that TAC Officer Hampton had located and detained the suspect near the intersection of Crescent and Andover Streets. The officers arrived and told the suspect that they had a search warrant for him and his home. The officers then searched the suspect and found a large amount of cash in one of his pockets. With the help of other Ingleside officers and San Francisco Animal Care and Control, the officers began searching the suspect’s residence. The Animal Care and Control officer removed two pit bulls from the suspect’s home. Officer Aleman, of the department’s canine unit, then searched the home with his dog “Tomak”, and discovered a digital scale used for weighing narcotics, plastic baggies, Methamphetamine and glass smoking pipes used to smoke the Methamphetamine drug, and an accounting sheet with customer’s names next to dollar amounts of money owed and paid.

4:32pm 300 Blk Flood Burglary
Officer Fulgado responded to an auto boosting in progress on the 300 block of Flood Avenue. Upon arrival, the officer spoke with the witness, who stated she was in the kitchen on the phone when she observed two suspects who had approached a parked vehicle, and began picking the locks. The two suspects successfully opened the passenger side door of the vehicle and began rummaging through the vehicle. The witness immediately called the police and opened her window to get a better look. The suspects, she said, must have heard her opening her window and got spooked because they immediately began to walk away. Sgt Riskin arrived to the area and located the two suspects as they were walking away. Several officers arrived to assist and searched both suspects. The officers found the female suspect to be concealing some Brass knuckles in her pants pocket. A computer check revealed the male suspect was a wanted parolee.
