Crime Alert: Precita Park area; There has been numerous incidents where several bicycles have been stolen out of residential garages. Suspect(s) have broken into vehicles parked along the street and have taken the garage door openers and used them to open the owner’s garage to gain access. Once inside, they steal anything of value, including bicycles. You wouldn’t leave the key to your front door in your car, so don’t leave your remote garage door opener in your car either. If you happen to hear your garage door opening, and it wasn’t you, call SF 911 directly.

Arrests:


4:04pm       4700 Blk Mission                             Drugs
Officers Burke and Barajas were on their way to a call of a “man with a gun” when they were passed by a speeding car with several occupants inside. Concerned that the vehicle may be related to the weapons call, the officers followed the car until it stopped at a local fast food restaurant. The officers asked for “backup” units and several Ingleside officers joined Burke and Barajas in the restaurant’s parking lot. The officers ran a computer check, which revealed two of the passengers to be on probation with a search condition. The officers then asked the occupants to exit the car and a search was then conducted.  Two other occupants, a man and a woman, had Marijuana in their possession and did not have a medical Marijuana prescription for the drug.  Both were cited and released and the Marijuana was booked as evidence. Further investigation found that the vehicle and occupants were not involved in the original weapons call. Case number: 130241398


Serious Incidents:


12:01am     Unit Blk Ellsworth                  Theft
Officer Giannini and Curry were sent to investigate a theft and a possible home burglary. The victim told the officers that someone smashed the driver’s side window of his car and stole his garage door opener from the passenger side visor. The victim told the officers that he also found his garage door open when he went outside and discovered the damage to his car. He was unsure if anything was taken from his garage. Report number: 130240237
Remember, if you leave your vehicle parked out on the street, do not leave your remote garage door opener inside the car. Take it with you.


3:16am       500 Blk Anderson                   Firearm Violation
Ingleside Officers Dilag and Brown responded to a report of “shots fired” and found several shotgun shells in the middle of the street. A witness told the officers he was awakened by the sounds of three gunshots and, while peering out his window, saw Silver colored vehicle driving away. He was unable to get the vehicle’s license number. The officers searched the area for additional evidence or witnesses with no success. Case number: 130240005


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.
