#030 Battery on a Police Officer/Felon in Possession of a Loaded Firearm
At about 3:18 p.m., an officer from our Street Crimes Unit was driving through Niles when he saw a well-known male (28 year old/Fremont resident), who is a felon on parole, standing near a vehicle parked in the area of Niles Blvd just south of J St. The officer attempted to make contact while he was standing there.  The male immediately took off running and the officer initiated a short foot pursuit.  When the officer caught up to the male, he attempted to take him into custody and a fight ensued.  The officer hit the Code 99 button on his radio, which puts out a tone alert over every police radio.  The alert means an officer is in trouble and needs immediate assistance.   After a few minutes of continued fighting, the officer was able to disengage and deploy his Taser.  The application was effective and the male was taken into custody.  
The male was found to be in possession of a loaded Glock 23, methamphetamine, burglary tools, and identification belonging to other people. He went to jail and was booked on a number of charges including:  felon in possession of a gun, carrying a concealed loaded weapon, possession of a controlled substance while armed, obstructing an executive officer, possession of a controlled substance, receiving known stolen property, battery on a police officer, possession of a silencer, obstructing/resisting, possession of burglary tools, etc.

The officer got the male out of the vehicle and that’s when the male began taking off all of his clothes until he was only in his underwear.   The officer attempted to detain the suspect, but he resisted and began fighting.  The officer deployed his Taser which was temporarily effective, but then the suspect pulled the probes out of his torso and continued fighting.  The fight continued for several minutes until additional officers arrived and assisted to take the combative suspect into custody.  The suspect was transported to a local hospital for medical clearance, and later booked at Santa Rita on charges of obstructing an executive officer, attempting to remove a peace officers firearm and attempted vehicle theft.

Illegal Sideshow Activity
At 11:04 pm, Fremont Fire personnel from Station 11 in south Fremont called to report several hundred cars doing donuts and sideshow activities on Lakeview Blvd.  Officers arrived and found several cars in the area engaged in illegal sideshow activity, as well as a couple hundred people running.  The vehicles mostly scattered and a few traffic stops were made.  Registrations came back from Vallejo, San Lorenzo, Oakland, and Antioch.  A 1990 Lexus 4-door vehicle with false registration tabs was towed.  Some of the vehicles in the area were carrying spare tires they would sell once the participants destroyed their tires doing donuts. During this initial enforcement, one Fremont patrol car was damaged by a suspect who threw a large rock at the vehicle.  
 
After the group left, they moved their activities to Osgood Rd near Automall Pkwy and continued their antics.  Officers responded to the area and the group left.  They regrouped in  the 900 block of Page Rd and Milmont Dr.  During enforcement in this area, an officer’s occupied patrol car was surrounded by masked persons.  The patrol car sustained damage including a broken mirror (photo attached) and dents.  CHP responded to assist and advised they took rocks and bottles the night prior while enforcing sideshow activity. The large group dispersed the area fleeing down Milmont Rd. towards Milpitas in both lanes of traffic. Milpitas PD was notified.   They did not return after this incident. 
 
Sideshow activity is illegal and extremely dangerous, not only for the participants, but also for bystanders and uninvolved motorists. Fremont has a zero-tolerance policy for persons engaged in sideshow activities. Patrol and Traffic officers will be proactively monitoring the City for sideshow activity during the upcoming weeks.
