SFPD and Walgreens Kick Off 2016 Holiday
Toy Drive
In
collaboration with Walgreens drugstores, the San Francisco Police Department
today launched its 2016 Holiday Toy Drive, benefitting the City’s children in
need.
From
November 18 to December 19, SFPD will be accepting donations of new, unwrapped
toys at more than 60 San Francisco Walgreens locations. The goal is to exceed
last year’s toy drive, in which approximately 2,500 items were donated at 30
Walgreens stores for distribution to San Francisco children.
“Everyone
can make a difference in a child’s life,” said Interim Police Chief Toney
Chaplin. “San Franciscans are generous, thoughtful people and we believe they
will step up to brighten the holidays for children and provide happy memories
for years to come. We thank Walgreens for doing their part again this year to
help San Francisco youth.”
Donors can purchase or drop off a new, unwrapped toy at any San
Francisco Walgreens that features a brightly colored and marked toy drive
collection bin. Those unable to drop off a toy may also contribute to a Go Fund
Me account (https://www.gofundme.com/sfpdtoydrive2016) established by the San
Francisco Police Foundation to purchase toys for underprivileged children this
holiday season.
Arrests:
11:50pm Visitacion &
Sawyer Robbery
Officers are taught that they should always be vigilant and
remember that routine events can become dangerous in an instant. This is one of
those events. Ingleside Officers Zhao and Washington responded to a report of a
robbery. The victim told the officers that, a short time before their arrival,
he had exited a #8 Muni bus and was about to walk home when two men got out of
a newer Honda and approached him. One of the men pointed a black gun at his
stomach and started going through his pockets. The suspects took his IPhone, a
wallet, and a tan messenger bag before getting back in the car and driving away
in an unknown direction. The victim told the officers that his IPhone had
internet tracking software. Officer Zhao put out a city wide alert with the tracking
information. Soon thereafter Officer Hart, from Central Station, found the
vehicle with the phone traveling northbound on Leavenworth Street, approaching
Jefferson, near Fisherman’s Wharf. He turned on his emergency lights and siren
and the suspect’s vehicle pulled over. As he exited his patrol car, the vehicle
suddenly sped away at a high rate of speed. Officer Hart pursued the vehicle,
but lost it in the vicinity of AT&T Park. Mission Station Sergeant’s
Johnson and Perez, listening to the robbery broadcast which was giving the
location of the vehicle by monitoring the IPhone tracking information, joined
the chase and quickly caught up with the fleeing vehicle near the Millbrae
Avenue exit on Highway #101. Soon thereafter, CHP units joined the chase and
took over the primary pursuit which ended when the suspect’s vehicle crashed
and overturned on El Camino Real in Sunnyvale. The driver was taken into
custody and his passenger was ejected and pronounced deceased at the scene. The
victim’s cell phone was discovered a short distance away from the suspect’s
vehicle. Report number: 160950127
Serious Incidents:
1:15pm 700 Blk. Silver Stolen Vehicle
Ingleside Officers Kikuchi and Williams were dispatched to
take a report of a car stolen from the Hillcrest Market parking lot. When they
arrived on scene the owner said he had left the keys in his older Toyota
Corolla while he went shopping at the market. But what really concerned the
officers was that inside the Corolla’s trunk were several firearms and
ammunition. The officers put out a city wide bulletin and shortly, thereafter,
Bayview officers found the stolen car, fortunately with the firearms and
ammunition still in the trunk. The victim then told the officers he also owned
several other firearms at his home on Madrid Street. He invited the officers
back to the home where they found additional firearms and ammunition in an
unsafe location. All the firearms were taken to Ingleside Station for
safekeeping and the owner was given a property receipt. After tallying the list
of guns and ammunition the victim claimed he owned the officers concluded there
was still one missing weapon. A description of that weapon was broadcast to all
officers in the City. Report number: 160948473
