Back to School: As summer draws to a close, back-to-school season will be in full effect. Safety should be a priority for every family as children return to classrooms this fall. It’s crucial that all motorists understand how to safely share the roads with school buses, pedestrians and bicyclists. It’s also a good time for parents and children to talk about how to stay safe at school.
Mail Fraud Alert: Recently, an Ingleside Resident received an official looking letter in the mail claiming she had won $250,000.00 dollars from an International sweepstakes. The company “Global Processing Inc.” gave the appearance of sending the resident a check in the amount of $4,685.00 dollars to cover the processing fee when in fact the “check” was fake. The Nigerian letter is an advance fee fraud, a form of a confidence trick, which calls for the victim to try to deposit the fake check into their bank account and reimburse the company with a personal check to cover the fee. By the time the bank discovers the fake check is fraudulent, it’s too late. The victim is out $4,685.00 dollars. Be aware, the scam preys on people who are more trusting and the elderly. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. The resident who received this letter found misspelled words and found it very suspicious. She then forwarded the letter to Captain Falvey, so that he may spread the word and prevent others from being a victim.
ALERT: There has been an increase in auto boosts in the area of Monterey, O’Shaughnessy and Bosworth. The break ins are occurring around the hours of 9:00am to 12:00pm. Please report any suspicious activity to the police. Do not leave valuables in your cars.
Recently, a flyer was distributed to the community regarding scams targeting the monolingual Chinese. These scams involve telling the victim that an evil spirit is following them. They will ask the victim to bring valuables to pray over as an offering to the spirit. They will return to the victim what is believed to be their valuables. They will ask the victim not to look at their valuables for a day. When the victim later checks their valuables, they find that the valuables were not returned by the suspects.
We urge all person(s) confronted with this scam to call 911 as this is a crime in progress. By contacting 911, you greatly increase the chance of catching the suspect(s) so that the police can make an arrest. If someone approaches you with this scam, decline their help, call 911 immediately and report it to the police. Be a good witness. Obtain a description of the suspect(s) and/or vehicles they are driving.

Serious Incidents:
4:35am Unit Blk Murray Resisting Arrest
This case involved two car thief suspects and a foot chase involving Ingleside officers Hauscarriague and Dove. Both officers were on patrol in an unmarked police vehicle when they spotted a Black Honda Accord with two men inside. When the officers pulled up next to the car the two suspects, seeing the officer’s official uniform patches through the patrol vehicle’s window, suddenly began nervously moving around in the stolen car. When the officers stopped their patrol vehicle and got out, the two suspects also exited their car. Officer Hauscarriague stepped behind the Honda and was detaining the passenger while officer Dove stood in front of the Honda and tried to detain the driver. Suddenly, the driver started running away with both officers in pursuit. The chase went from Genebern Way towards Benton Street where officer Dove caught up and tackled the suspect. Unfortunately, Officer Dove was running so fast that when he tackled the suspect, he slid past him on the sidewalk for approximately six to eight feet. The suspect, seeing another opportunity to escape, got up and ran away on Benton to College then to eastbound Justin where the officers lost sight of him. The passenger, also seeing an opportunity with both officers in pursuit of the driver, also escaped. Both officers, after returning to Ingleside Station, were able to identify the driver from previous arrests. The vehicle was processed for fingerprints and evidence which included burglary tools and a pried open safe in the trunk. Report number: 130701063
5:10pm Unit Blk Winfield Malicious Mischief
An alert citizen called police after witnessing three attempted possible car thefts. The citizen told Ingleside Officers Kilgariff and Guzman that he saw a woman get out of a Honda and walk up the street and, using a key, unsuccessfully tried to enter three other Hondas parked on the block. After failing to enter the Hondas, the suspect then re-entered the car she arrived in, and with another suspect at the wheel, drive away. The witness gave the officers pictures of the suspect along with the license number of the suspect’s car which turned out to be stolen. Report number: 130703075
7:15pm 100 Blk Blythdale Resisting Arrest
Officers Lustenberger, Lockett and Chew were at the scene of a shooting. A large, hostile, crowd had gathered watching as the victim was loaded into an ambulance to be taken to the hospital. While the officers were keeping the onlookers on the sidewalk and maintaining the crime scene, a woman attempted to rush toward the ambulance and interfere with medics treating the victim. Officer Chew asked the woman to return to the sidewalk and let the medics continue their life saving work. The woman ignored the officer’s commands and kept moving toward the ambulance. Officer Chew took hold of the woman’s arm and tried to guide her back to the sidewalk. The woman yelled, “don’t….touch me”, and tried to rush again toward the ambulance while grabbing the front of officer Chew’s shirt. With the help of another officer, officer Chew gained control of the suspect’s arms and placed her in handcuffs. She was taken to Ingleside station, cited for interfering with officers duties and then released. Case number: 130704001
