Police Blotter

On Friday 9/24/14, at about 9:34AM, UCPD Received calls from a victim on the 32000 Block of Goshen St. The victim stated that a housemate brandished a knife and hammer at him. Officers arrived on scene and located the suspect attempting to flee from the home. The suspect was detained by officers and the victim was contacted. Apparently the victim and suspect were in an argument and the suspect pulled out a knife and gestured towards the victim. The suspect was apparently upset with the victim because the victim continually walked around the house with his pants “Sagging”, which showed off his unclean underwear. The victim placed the suspect under citizen’s arrest. The suspect was later transported to Fremont Jail.


On Friday, 9/24/14, at about 4:06PM, UCPD received a call from a victim on the 2200 block of Peacock Pl. The victim stated that there were 8-9 subjects in his car that had been locked and parked in his carport. The subjects stole items from the victim’s card and removed his ignition in an apparent attempt to steal the car. During an area check, a UCPD officer located a male subject who matched the description provided by the victim. The subject was ultimately identified by the victim as one of subjects whom he saw in his vehicle. The subject was arrested and taken to UCPD for booking.


On Monday, 9/29/14, at 8:55PM, Officers on patrol near the area of Pulaski Dr. and Tamarack Dr, contacted a suspect after he hid from them as they drove by. They contacted the male and determined that he was active to probation with a search condition. Prior to being contacted, the suspect had dumped a backpack that officers had observed him carrying. A probation search was conducted and the suspect was determined to be in possession of a suspected controlled substance. The suspect was also in possession of several items related to car burglaries. The suspect was arrested and transported to Fremont Jail for booking.


On Tuesday, 9/30/14 at 10:24PM, UCPD received a silent robbery alarm call at Buffalo Wild Wings in Union Landing. Officers arrived on scene and determined that the robbery was unfounded however a disturbance inside the business had occurred. Officers learned that three A’s fans were upset with the outcome of the game and to vent their frustrations began throwing items at the televisions located inside the bar area. The manager asked the patrons to calm down, however the patrons only became more aggravated and left the establishment without paying for their bar tabs. The manager hit the robbery alarm to summon the police because he was in fear for his safety. The three subjects left the business on foot but were contacted by police in the parking lot. It was determined that they skipped out on a tab of over $100, however the manager allowed the subjects to pay for the tab so they would not be charged with theft. One of the subjects was arrested for public intoxication after he refused to cooperate with police and continued to cause a disturbance. The unfortunate A’s fan ultimately suffered the loss of his teams post season hopes and the temporary loss of his freedom as he was transported to Fremont Jail for booking.
