POLICE ARREST RESIDENTIAL BURGLARY SUSPECT HOURS AFTER COMMISSION OF CRIME 
On Wednesday, April 26th, 2017 at 1:00 pm, San Leandro Police officers responded to an address on Cape Cod Drive on the report of an occupied residential burglary that just occurred.
When officers arrived they learned that the suspect fled the area, possibly in a vehicle. After an extensive area search, detectives located video surveillance that confirmed the suspect left the area prior to police arrival. Detectives were able to obtain a description of the suspect and his vehicle from the surveillance footage.
At 2:30 pm, detectives located the suspect and suspect vehicle in the area of 106th Ave. in Oakland. The subject, 20 yr old Mustafaa Mohammad of Oakland was identified as the suspect in the crime. In addition, Mohammad was found to be in possession of a loaded firearm at the time of his arrest.
Mohammed has been charged by the Alameda County District Attorney for the mentioned offenses and remains in custody at the Alameda County jail in Dublin.
Cases like these have a much greater solvability when we receive valuable video evidence from our community partners. If it weren’t for the video surveillance footage, the suspect in this case, may not have been promptly located and arrested.
Detectives will further investigate Mohammad to see if he may be involved in other similar cases.
