Full Notification

When I mention “the unit block” of a street, this means the incident occurred at an address anywhere between 1 and 99 of the street.


Notable Cases

On Tuesday, 01-06-15 at 8:04 p.m., Officer Rodney Chittenden attempted to stop stolen Honda Civic on John Daly Boulevard and Park Plaza Drive. The driver of the Honda then continued east onto John Daly Boulevard and then turned onto the 19th Avenue/Highway 1 on-ramp. Officer Chittenden activated his vehicle’s emergency siren and lighting equipment, and the driver of the Honda began to accelerate and took the northbound Alemany Boulevard exit. A pursuit ensued, and the driver of the Honda attempted to squeeze through two vehicles and crashed into a stationary vehicle. Officer Chittenden ordered the driver to get to the ground, and the driver made eye contact with him and began running. Officer Bruce Perdomo, with the help of his K-9 partner Utah, detained the driver who then tried to struggle and resist the officer. Officers arrested the subject, a 35-year old San Francisco resident, for felony evading a peace officer, vehicle theft, felony hit and run with injuries, possession of a stolen vehicle, obstructing/resisting a peace officer and possession of burglary tools. The passenger, a 45-year old San Francisco resident, was taken to Saint Luke’s Hospital to be treated for a head injury.

On Thursday, 01-08-15, Officer Sean Begley was dispatched to Jefferson High School on a report of a possible sexual battery that occurred that morning. The principal said a 16-year old male student said he was walking on East Market Avenue near Second Avenue when he walked past a dark colored 4-door sedan. As he walked past the vehicle, a subject in the vehicle asked him if he knew where there was a strip club or a place to have sex. The victim said he didn’t know, and the suspect said he was new to the area. The subject then asked the victim if he was going to Jefferson High School and offered him a ride. The victim was initially apprehensive but then agreed. The victim said the subject then engaged him in a sexual conversation and then began rubbing his leg and chest area, asking if this was how he liked girls to touch him. The victim was very uncomfortable, pushed the suspect’s arm away and got out of the vehicle. The victim said the subject told him he was sorry and he was joking. The victim then reported this incident to the school officials. The subject was described as a Hispanic male between 20-30 years old, dark short hair, medium complexion, wearing reading glasses and had a slight beard. He was wearing a white long sleeve dress shirt with no tie and gray slacks. This case was referred to Detective Ron Harrison who recognized the similarities of this case to a prior case last year. The next day, with a positive identification by the victim, Detective Harrison arrested 33-year old Hugo Leiva from Daly City for annoying/molesting a child.

On Saturday, 01-10-15 at 12:01 p.m., Officer Nicholas McCarthy and Officer Lee Aquila were dispatched to the Plaza Liquor and Deli on East Market Street on a report of a female causing a disturbance. The owner said he did not want the subject in the store again because of her irate behavior and use of vulgar language. The owner said he was willing to sign a Citizen’s Arrest form if the subject returned to his store. The officers advised the subject that the owner did not want her to come back to the store, and if she did, she would be arrested for trespassing. About an hour later, the officers were dispatched to the store again because the owner said the subject returned and was causing another disturbance. Officers arrested the 51-year old Daly City resident for trespassing and for a bench warrant.

On Saturday, 01-10-15 at 3:59 p.m., Officer Korey Sprader and Officer Brandon Scholes conducted a traffic stop on a vehicle for expired registration at Geneva Avenue and Bayshore Boulevard. The officers smelled an odor of marijuana coming from the vehicle. All three subjects in the vehicle had just come from the gun show, and there was a bag containing four boxes of ammunition in the vehicle. The three subjects, ages 26-28 all from Oakland, were convicted felons, and they were ultimately arrested for being convicted felons in possession of ammunition.
