Serious Incidents:
3:34pm 4300 Blk Mission Robbery
Officers Grennell and Fung were sent to the intersection of Mission and Silver Avenue to investigate a robbery. When they arrived, the victim told the officers he was waiting at the bus stop and talking on his cell phone when four men approached him with one of them saying, “Are you the guy with the iPhone? Let me see it.” One of the suspects then placed the tip of a knife against the victim’s stomach saying, “I ain’t playing, let me see the iPhone”. Fearing for his life, the victim gave the suspects his cell phone along with his iPod. The suspects quickly ran away with his property. Officers searched the area for the suspects without success but they did find security camera footage of the suspects from a nearby business. The station’s investigative team is reviewing the footage for leads in the case. Report number: 130127920.

CRIME ALERT: There has been an increase in auto boostings around Precita Park and the surrounding area. Don’t be a Victim.
Take extra precautions to avoid a criminal window-shopping inside your car. Never give them a reason to break into your car and steal your belongings.
Safety Tips:
*Try to park in a well- lit area and always lock your doors and secure your windows.
*Do not leave possessions on the seat or in plain view.
*Never hide belongings under the seat: This is the first place burglars check.
*Never cover expensive items with an article of clothing or blanket: This presents a hidden clue to thieves that items may be underneath.
*Do not leave any important documents inside your car that contain your personal information.
* Do not leave phone or MP3 chargers plugged in: this leads the burglar to believe there are expensive electronics inside your car.
Remember, if a criminal is unsuccessful and is not benefitting from his criminal activity, the thief will move on, thus making your neighborhood less of a target.
