A Message from the Public Utilities Commission:
“A Call to Conserve Water”
We didn’t get enough rain or
snow this winter – plain and simple. The San Francisco Public Utilities
Commission (SFPUC) is officially asking all customers to voluntarily reduce water
use by 10%.
Conservation is easy; turn off
the faucet while brushing teeth or soaping hands; shorten shower time; install
water-efficient showerheads and faucet aerators; replace older toilets and
clothes washers with new water-efficient models; and, fix leaks. Please
visit sfwater.org/conservation for more information. The SFPUC offers an array of
conservation assistance including free water-saving devices, free Water-Wise
evaluations for homes, apartment buildings and businesses and rebates for
water-efficient toilets and clothes washers.
Everyone needs to do their part
to help us stretch our limited Hetch Hetchy Water Supplies. Conserve today and
save for tomorrow.

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.

Serious Incidents:
12:10am San
Jose/Havelock
Robbery
A woman walking home from BART was robbed of her purse and
contents. The victim told Ingleside Officer Lundy that she was walking
northbound on San Jose Avenue, passing the Balboa Pool, when the suspect
approached from behind and pushed her to the ground. She said he yanked her
purse from her shoulder and ran away in an unknown direction. The loss was the
purse, approximately $200 in cash, two credit cards, driver’s license, and
house keys. Report number: 140652337
7:35am Visitacion/Schwerin Robbery w/gun
Ingleside Officers Nasser, Muro, Wong, Chang, and Sgt.
Springer were sent to a home on the 100 block of Rey Street to investigate a
robbery. The crying and shaken victim told the officers that she was about to
enter her automobile, parked around the block from her home, when she noticed
three men exiting a #8 MUNI bus. She said the three men approached her and one
of the suspects said, “Give me your purse”. Before she could react, one of the
men yanked the purse from her shoulder while throwing her to the sidewalk. The
three suspects then ran away on Visitacion toward Britton Street. However, one
the suspects ran only a few steps before turning around and shooting at the
victim with a black BB gun. The victim tried to hide her face with her hands
but the suspect ran up to her, pulled her hands away from her face, and shot
her twice, once in each cheek with said BB gun. He then ran away in the same
direction of the other suspects. The victim called police and then ran back to
her home to wait for their arrival. The victim was taken to San Francisco
General Hospital for treatment of her injuries which, according to the hospital
physicians, were not life threatening. Ingleside officers searched the
surrounding area for suspects but were not successful. The loss was a purse
containing credit cards, cash, and a driver’s license. The Ingleside Station
Investigative Team has been assigned the case and is continuing the pursuit of
the suspects. Report number: 140649782
11:13am Silver/Cambridge Robbery
w/gun
The owner of a corner grocery store was robbed of cash. The
victim told Ingleside Officers Deering, Bernard and Sgt. Springer that an
unknown suspect entered the store, walked up to the counter, pulled his
sweatshirt hood over his head, took out a gun, and demanded money. The store
owner told the officers the robber then reached into the cash register and
removed several hundred dollars. The suspect told the owner to go the back room
and when he did, the suspect fled out the front door. Ingleside officers
searched the surrounding area for the suspect without success. Report number:
140650325
5:40pm Schwerin/Garrison
Robbery
A woman riding a MUNI bus was the victim of a violent
robbery. When Ingleside Officers Cuenca and Cvetovac arrived on scene the woman
was shaking and crying and had abrasions on her hands and knees. The victim
told the officers that when the #9 MUNI bus stopped at the intersection of
Schwerin and Garrison, two suspects approached the victim sitting in her seat,
and tried to take her purse out of her hands. The victim resisted so the
suspects dragged the victim off the bus and slammed her into the ground several
times before she finally relinquished her purse. The suspects then ran away in
an unknown direction. The victim was transported to Davis Medical Center for
treatment of her injuries. The loss was several credit cards and a large amount
of cash. The Ingleside Investigation Team has been assigned the case and is
interviewing witnesses and looking at video from the MUNI bus and surrounding
businesses. Report number: 140654678
9:15pm Sunnydale/Santos Robbery
Another MUNI passenger was robbed of his cell phone. The
victim told Ingleside Officers Anderson and Casey that he was talking on his
cell phone as the bus neared the intersection of Sunnydale and Santos Streets.
When the bus stopped, an unknown suspect grabbed the victim’s cell phone and
tried to exit the bus. The victim fought for control of his phone and after a
short struggle, the suspect finally wrestled the phone away from the victim and
ran off the bus. The victim borrowed a witness’s cell phone and called police.
