Arrests:
3:50pm 4400 Blk Mission Drugs
Officers Hurwitz and Duffin were on foot patrol checking on a business along the 4400 block of Mission Street. When they entered the establishment, they noticed a man looking nervously at the officers and then at the back entrance. The officers approached the man and asked if he was on parole or probation. He told the officers he was on probation and a computer check confirmed that his probation included a search condition. When the officers began searching the victim, he stated, “Just arrest me because I know I’m going to jail.” His statement turned out to be correct because the officers discovered in several pockets a cocaine pipe and a large quantity of crack cocaine.

Officer Hurwitz was on routine patrol when she saw a man exit a vehicle and walk across the street. Another man, waiting near the vehicle, was known to Officer Hurwitz from previous arrests.

She also radioed for backup and several other Ingleside officers responded to the scene. During a search of the first suspect, officers discovered a quantity of Methamphetamine in one of his pockets and several rolls of cash in another pocket.

The victim crossed the street to avoid the men, but the suspects turned and followed him. When the suspects reached the victim they grabbed his shirt and pushed him up against the wall on a building. One of the robbers told the victim, “this will only hurt for a minute. Give me everything”. The two robbers took the victims red bag with clothing, books and eye glasses, and then reached into his jacket and took more clothing, a wallet containing credit cards, ID cards, miscellaneous business cards, and a cell phone before running away. The officers broadcast a description of the suspects and, a short time later, Ingleside Officers Ma and Hauscarriague radioed they located some of the victim’s property on the 100 block of Rousseau Street. Officer Hauscarriague also broadcast that he noticed a tall wooden fence in the area moving back and forth and “crunching” sound coming from the other side of the fence. Other Ingleside officers responded to the scene and Officer Hauscarriague peered over the fence and spotted the two suspects in the backyard of a residence. They were immediately taken into custody and a search of the two robbers found some of the victim’s clothing along with his wallet. Both suspects were taken to Ingleside Station and booked on a variety of charges. Report number: 130330355
