“Police Blotter” Highlights – Ending September 24th, 2014
On Friday, 9/19/14, at 5:40PM, Union City PD received a call of an assault with a deadly weapon on the 2100 block of Dalton Wy. Callers reported that a male was chasing another male down the street with a large swashbuckling type pirate sword. Upon arrival, Officers located both parties and found that the two males were brothers. One brother was upset at the other for an unknown reason so he decided to grab the first item available to strike his brother with. The sword wielding brother was arrested and transported to jail.
On Saturday 9/20/14, at 12:02PM, Near the 33000 block of Brockway St., an unknown male knocked on the victim’s door and told the resident he was looking for an address on Regents Blvd. The victim thought it was strange but provided the suspect directions. Shortly after the suspect left, the victim realized the suspect had attempted to pry open his front door. There were fresh pry marks from the bottom of the door to the top. The victim drove around for approximately 25 minutes looking for the suspect before contacting the police. The suspect was described as possibly being an Indian or Hispanic male adult, approximately 5 feet 10 inches tall, weighing about 220 pounds. He was last seen wearing a white T-shirt, and dark shorts. The suspect also had an Oakland “A’s” tattoo underneath one of his ears. Unfortunately the police were unable to locate the suspect due in part to the delay in reporting the incident.
On Saturday, 9/20/14, at 8:14PM, UCPD dispatch received numerous call of a multi vehicle accident near the intersection of Decoto Rd. and Perry Rd. Upon arrival, Officers responded to location and found a four car collision, with minor injuries. The driver at fault was extremely intoxicated and was arrested for D.U.I. Southbound Decoto Rd. was closed for nearly two hours, while officers investigated the collision.
On Thursday, 9/18/14, UCPD sent twelve Police Explorers and two advisors to the Central Coast Law Enforcement Explorer Competition in Paso Robles Ca.
