The San Francisco Neighborhood Emergency Response Team (NERT) is free training from the San Francisco Fire Department in how to help yourself and your neighbors prepare for and respond to a disaster by working together. The 20-hour training, taught by First Responders, includes personal preparedness, light search and rescue, disaster medicine, shutting off your utilities, and how to participate as a member of a neighborhood response team. NERT also offers continuing training for graduates and activities that support building robust neighborhood teams. For more information, visit the NERT website at http://sfgov.org//sffdnert, or contact Lt. Erica Arteseros at (415)970-2022 or sffdnert@sfgov.org
Are you someone who is interested in disaster preparedness and wants to help out your community while working hand in hand with law enforcement? Then the ALERT program is for you!
What is the A.L.E.R.T. Program?
The San Francisco Police Department has developed a volunteer citizen disaster preparedness program. The Auxiliary Law Enforcement Response Team (ALERT) is modeled after and works in partnership with the San Francisco Fire Department's Neighborhood Emergency Response Team (NERT). The ALERT program will train members of the public to assist law enforcement in essential tasks after a major disaster. Such tasks may include: traffic control, foot patrol of business and residential areas, and reporting criminal activity. Volunteers must be at least 16 years of age and live, work, or attend high school in San Francisco.
Three steps to becoming an
A.L.E.R.T. volunteer:
1. Complete NERT training and receive certification. To register for NERT training courses please visit www.sfgov.org/sfnert
2. Once NERT certified, forward a copy of your NERT ID card to the ALERT program. sfpdalert@sfov.org
3. After clearing a basic background check the individual is eligible to register for ALERT training.
The next ALERT training class has been scheduled for Jan. 18th, 2014, from 8:00am-5:00pm. This class will be held at the San Francisco Police Academy, in the parking lot bungalow.
Scam Alert: Here is how it works: the suspect will call the victim and identify himself as a PG&E employee. The suspect will ask for the victim by name and ask if he/she is the owner of a particular business or property. Once the victim replies yes, the suspect tells the victim that his/her bill is delinquent in a specific amount. The suspect then tells the victim that he/she needs to pay the delinquent bill by a certain time or their service will be terminated. The suspect instructs the victim to buy MoneyPak cards in a specific amount. The suspect then instructs the victim to read the card's code numbers to him over the phone. Once that is done, the money is gone and the scam is complete.
The suspect will give the victim a call-back number that goes to a voicemail that identifies itself via recording as PG&E.
If you receive a call like this, please call the customer service number on your billing statement to confirm the call is legitimate. If that call turns out to be a scam, please have a police report made
Arrests:
2:01am 2100 Blk Geneva Weapons
Ingleside Officers Barrera and Jones were on routine patrol when they spotted a double-parked Honda, with three occupants, on the 200 Block of Blythdale Avenue. The officers pulled up behind the car just as the driver began pulling away. A computer check of the vehicle’s registration determined that it was expired. The officers stopped the vehicle and asked the driver for his license. The sixteen year old said he didn’t have a license. A computer check revealed that was correct. The officers determined the front seat passenger did not have a criminal record however, but the rear seat passenger was on felony probation with search condition. A body search revealed nothing incriminating however a search of the car turned up two weapons, a switchblade knife and a foldable baton. Both were seized by the officers along with a quantity of marijuana and a bong pipe to smoke it. The paroled felon was transported to Ingleside Station and cited for weapons violation then released.
