The next community meeting at Ingleside Station will be held on August 20, 2013.  Thank you.

BE AWARE:  Last week, in the Park Police District, “laced meatballs” were located which a dog had ingested.  Also, in the Ingleside District, another concerned citizen reported that “tainted” food had been left on the street for dogs to ingest.  Please be cautious and report any suspicious food left out to the police.  Don’t allow your pets to ingest such items.

ALERT:  There has been an increase in auto boosts in the area of O’Shaughnessy and Bosworth.  The break ins are occurring around the hours of 9:00am to 12:00pm.  Please report any suspicious activity to the police.  Do not leave valuables in your cars. 

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。

Serious Incidents:


10:10am     Unit Blk Lippard                    Suspicious device
San Francisco Sheriffs Deputies Padilla and Raleta were driving through the Glen Park area when they were approached by a concerned citizen who advised them that there was a suspicious package on Lippard Street. The deputies went to the location and found the item. They took a closer look and saw that the device consisted of five road flares taped together with duct tape with nails sticking out of the flares and another unidentified Black plastic object under the flares. Taking no chances, the deputies notified dispatch and requested officers to the scene. Several Ingleside units arrive and set up a perimeter around the scene and advised the residents in the area to shelter in place. The San Francisco Police Department’s EOD unit came out and with their special equipment; Officers Hara and Smith rendered the device safe. The end result was no one was injured and no property was damaged. The case is still under investigation. Report Number: 130581122


4:47pm       600 Blk Portola                      Robbery
Ingleside Officers Paras and Chicas were dispatched to the First National Bank branch on a report of a bank robbery. Several officers also arrived on scene and immediately checked the bank and rendered the scene safe and confirmed the suspects had left the area. Officer Chicas spoke with two of the frightened bank tellers and obtained a description for the responding units, who searched the area to no avail. The bank tellers told Officer Chicas that they were at their respective teller windows counting the money in their cash drawers and getting ready to close. Suddenly, two unknown suspects rushed into the bank through the front doors. One of the suspects immediately jumped behind the counter while the second suspect remained on the customer side. The suspects then demanded money from the tellers. The suspect behind the counter proceeded to open all the cash drawers and began taking the money. After taking what he could grab, the suspect jumped back over the counter and both suspects fled bank in an unknown direction. The tellers told the officers the whole incident happened so fast and took less than a minute. The FBI was called out to help in the investigation, which is still on-going. Report Number: 130582459
