The next community meeting at Ingleside Station will be held on December 17, 2013.  Thank you.





Outstanding Police Work:  Members of the Ingleside Police Station have been hard at work, while putting their lives on the line, and recovered a total of five guns between a five day period, beginning Oct 31, 2013 to Nov 5, 2013. Among the weapons recovered were three handguns, one shotgun and one Tech-9 sub-machine gun all stemming from four separate incidents. Of the five subjects taken into custody, two were on probation and had extensive police records. We strongly believe that these great arrests may have prevented some serious crimes from taking place. Thanks to these great officers, the streets are a little saferJ.


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:

11:20pm     1800 Blk Sunnydale                    Firearm
Ingleside Officers Hauscarriague and Holland were on routine patrol when they spotted a double parked vehicle blocking the street in the 1800 block of Sunnydale. All the vehicle windows were tinted which is a violation of the vehicle code. The officers stopped, approached the vehicle, and asked the driver to lower her window. When she did the officers smelled the strong odor of marijuana and noticed a lit marijuana cigarette in the vehicle’s ash tray. The driver was identified through her operator’s license and also produced a medical marijuana card that enabled her to transport medical marijuana. However, the officers pointed out it was illegal to drive while smoking marijuana. A search of the vehicle turned up a .25 caliber handgun and ammunition in the trunk. The suspect was transported to Ingleside Station where she was cited for the unregistered and concealed firearm. Report number: 131033051

Report number: 131030847


6:39pm       Unit Blk Brookdale                    Aggravated Assault
Ingleside Officers Morse, Rock, Johnson, and Obot were dispatched to a report of a shooting with one man critically injured. When they arrived at the scene, the officers discovered the victim lying on a couch inside the home with a bullet wound to his abdomen. Before being taken to the hospital, the victim told the officers he was returning home and was entering his residence when he was shot in the back by an unknown assailant. Other residents of the home told the officers they did not hear the gunshots. Officer Morse located 5 bullet casings within 10 feet of the victim’s front door.
