Hello Community Members,
We have lowered some of our burglary numbersthis week to homes but seen an increase to businesses. Violent crimeswent down this last week so that is really good news. This upcoming monthwill be a busy one as we transition for possible shift change at the end of themonth and start our preparation for 4th of July events at CalExpo. Our CSU (Crime Suppression Unit and GET (Gang Enforcement Team)have been busy conducting follow up on a variety of crimes that haveoccurred.
As a side note, if you run into an officerthat provides great service we would appreciate an email or letter about yourpositive experience. It always helps to motivate officers and give themfeedback on a job well done. We even have an area that we post upcomments from the community on the great work our officers do on a dailybasis. Thanks in advance for your feedback!
District 1 (South and North Natomas):
· OnJune 10th (Sunday), at 8 p.m., a Volunteer in Policing (VIP)received a cell phone that was left by a suspect inside the victim’s car. Officers were able to determine who the phone belonged to and was able to trickthe subject into meeting with them near Truxel Road/ Arena Blvd. When thesuspect showed up and saw the officers he tried to run but was quicklyarrested. Wouldn’t you know it, the suspect showed up with a friend in astolen car. The passenger ended up having a felony warrant. Wishit was always this easy to catch a bad guy. Great work by the officersinvolved!
· OnJune 11 (Monday), at 10 p.m., victim was asleep at his home in the 100 block ofOpus Circle when he heard a noise near a window at the back of his house. The victim went to look and saw a male Black suspect wearing a hoodedsweatshirt attempting to enter his house. A witness saw two male subjectsrunning into a dark vehicle and leave the area. The suspects were notlocated. Reminder to keep your windows and door locked. If youhave an alarm activate before you go to bed or when your home if your house islarger.
· OnJune 12th (Tuesday), Officers Cory Faria was on his way to anothercall when he heard that a burglary was being reported by neighbors in the 2900block of Azevedo Drive at around 8:30 p.m. Officer Faria began checkingthe area for possible suspects and located two subjects carrying a bunch ofproperty (that’s called a clue in police work). Both suspects ages24 and 30 years old were arrested for burglary. Watching out for eachother beats any other crime deterrence. If it wasn’t for the neighborsobserving and calling the police this would have been another burglary thatwent unsolved. Great job by all involved!
District2 (Del Paso Heights, Robla, Del Paso Blvd, El Camino, Woodlake):
· OnJune 12th (Tuesday), day shift officers responded to Camp Pollock inthe 400 block of Del Paso Blvd on a male in his 60’s founddeceased. No signs of foul play were found. The subject isbelieved to be a transient.
· OnJune 12th (Tuesday), Gang Enforcement Team served a search warrantin the 800 block of Eleanor. The officers located a marijuana grow,marijuana packaged for sales, and numerous guns. The suspect arrested wasa gang member and arrested for various charges. Anything we can take agun off the street is great but even better if they are gang members…great workby the GET team!
· OnJune 12th (Tuesday), Officer Todd Bevins was taking a robbery reportat May St and Harris Ave at around 8 p.m. The victim was robbed at gunpoint by his neighbors (you thought your neighbor was bad with the loudmusic). While the officer was on scene, the suspects drove by. The suspects ran but were found by K-9.
Miscellaneous
In the County of Sacramento they had aburglary where one suspect pretended to be a utility worker or contractor andlured the homeowner into their backyard. Another suspect then went intothe house and stole numerous items while the homeowner was out back watchingthe worker in the yard. We have had many of these types of ruseburglaries in the past so be on alert. Just because a person had a workhat or vest does not mean you should follow them or leave your houseunsecured. Ask for identification or a business card. Call thepolice if you have any doubts as to their authenticity. Look for a worktruck and get the license plate.
If you ever wondered how you go aboutstarting a neighborhood watch group our own Jeannette Bonner will be giving apresentation at our Police facility – 3550 Marysville Blvd on Wednesday June 20that 6:30 p.m. and anyone is invited to attend.
