JUST A REMINDER:  Schools are out for summer session.  Please pay extra attention when driving around parks and playgrounds as children will be out all hours of the day.

Recently, a flyer was distributed to the community regarding scams targeting the monolingual Chinese.  These scams involve telling the victim that an evil spirit is following them.  They will ask the victim to bring valuables to pray over as an offering to the spirit. They will return to the victim what is believed to be their valuables. They will ask the victim not to look at their valuables for a day.  When the victim later checks their valuables, they find that the valuables were not returned by the suspects.

We urge all person(s) confronted with this scam to call 911 as this is a crime in progress.  By contacting 911, you greatly increase the chance of catching the suspect(s) so that the police can make an arrest.  If someone approaches you with this scam, decline their help, call 911 immediately and report it to the police.  Be a good witness.  Obtain a description of the suspect(s) and/or vehicles they are driving. 

最近傳單流傳社區針對中國語的詐騙。這些騙局涉及一個邪惡的精神,他們告訴受害人邪惡會跟隨你。他們會問你攜帶你的貴重物品祭神為您祈禱,事後他們將您的貴重物品歸還.然後會告訴你在一天時間不要看您的貴重物品。一天後,當您檢查您的貴重物品,你會發現,犯罪嫌疑人並沒有歸還您的貴重物品

因為這是一個正在進行中的犯罪騙局。

我們呼籲所有的人,面對這種詐騙,

請撥打911,這將大大增加逮捕機會,是一個很好的證人和嘗試取得犯罪嫌疑人的描述,或他們所駕駛的車輛。

如果有人接近你,請記住這是一個騙局,請拒絕他們的幫助,

並立即撥打911向警方報案。

Arrests:
 
9:45am       1600 Blk Valencia                   Disturbing the Peace
Ingleside patrol officer Morrow was dispatched to investigate a report of loud music. When he arrived, he found a suspicious person with a boom box on a chair playing music.  The sound was so loud that Officer Morrow could easily hear it in his patrol car parked in the center of the street. Officer Morrow asked the suspect to please turn down the music. The man pretended not to hear the request by responding “What”? Officer Morrow then repeated the request, and the man again responded, “What?”.  The officer then asked the suspect a third time and the man, acknowledging the request, said “No, I’m not turning it down.”  Sgt. Garrick arrived to assist Officer Morrow with the situation. Sgt. Garrick explained to the subject the loud music ordinance and asked him to turn down the volume. Again, the subject refused, and Sgt. Garrick directed Officer Morrow to issue him a citation for “Disturbing the Peace”. Report number: 130506158

Sgt. Inocencio received a call from a stabbing victim in an active case he was handling. The victim told Sgt. Inocencio that the man who assaulted him was at a business in the 3700 block of Mission. Sgt. Inocencio, along with other Ingleside officers, arrived at the business to interview the victim, but the suspect was not there. However, the victim said the suspect had left and was at another business across the street. The victim, along with the officers, went across the street and entered the business where they found the suspect sitting at a table. The victim positively identified the man as the suspect who had stabbed him. The suspect was taken to Ingleside Station and booked on assault charges. Report number: 130336977

11:30pm     300 Blk 29th St                        Stolen Property   
Officers Lustenberger and Chew were sent to an address on 29th street to investigate a car burglary. Dispatch said the suspect was a man with a black baseball hat, black hooded sweatshirt, light colored pants, riding a white bicycle. On the way to the scene, the officers spotted a suspect matching the description of the burglar at 29th and Dolores. The officers stopped and questioned the man who admitted he was on parole, with a “search provision”. A computer check confirmed those facts and a search of the suspect turned up a car stereo hidden in his waistband under his sweatshirt. The stereo was returned to the vehicle owner. The suspect was taken to Ingleside Station and booked for possession of stolen property and the parole violation. Report number: 130508546
