In our on-going efforts to keep the mall and surrounding areas safe for people to enjoy, we have increased our patrol activities in and around Serramonte. On Monday, 03-25-19 at 3:00 p.m., Officer Taylor was patrolling the parking lot and saw a subject in a Nissan Maxima with a cracked windshield and without a license plate driving through the parking lot. Officer Taylor did a records check on the license plate and determined the license plate belonged to a Jeep and was expired. This vehicle stop resulted in the driver, a 43-year old Richmond resident, being arrested for being in possession of a loaded firearm, possession of a controlled substance for sale, possession of controlled substance while armed with a firearm, and for carrying a concealed weapon in a vehicle. The passenger, a 38-year old transient, was arrested for a misdemeanor warrant.
Nice proactive work!
