Crime Alert Bulletin
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, 02-13-18 at 9:30 p.m., officers were dispatched to the parking lot of the Mylo Motel on Geneva Avenue on a report of a male who was yelling, screaming and bothering other guests. The officers contacted the 38-year old subject who was on active probation for narcotics use. The subject had “crack” cocaine in his room and admitted to snorting some cocaine eight hours earlier. Officers cited the subject for possession of a controlled substance.
On Wednesday, 02-15-18 at 8:31 p.m., officers were dispatched to the intersection of Baltimore Way and Cordova Street on a report of a physical altercation, possibly resulting in at least one gun shot being fired. Three of the suspects were wearing all dark clothing, and one was wearing a white tee-shirt. A light colored SUV was seen fleeing the scene. A spent 9mm casing and an unused 9mm round were found at the scene. The officers were unable to locate anyone in the area.
On Saturday, 02-17-18 at 6:00 p.m., Sergeant Mattos and Officer Lickness were dispatched to the Safeway store on a report of two subjects known to employees for previously stealing items from the store. One employee watched the females as they were in the store and relayed to dispatchers that the subjects exited the store without paying for the items and were getting into a tan Nissan van. Sergeant Mattos conducted a traffic stop on the van. The Safeway employees came up to the van and told the sergeant the two females were the ones inside the store. After an investigation, one subject, a 31-year old San Francisco resident, was arrested for petty theft and possession of base cocaine. The other subject, a 30-year old San Francisco resident, was arrested for possession of base cocaine, possession of methamphetamine, possession of unlawful paraphernalia and for driving on a suspended driver's license.

A 17-year old Redwood City resident was arrested for conspiracy to commit a crime, resisting arrest and for providing false identification to an officer.

Nextdoor.com
Nextdoor.com is a free private social networking website for your neighborhood. This private network ensures that only those who live in your neighborhood can join; users must go through a verification process. Neighbors ask each other for business recommendations; help in locating missing pets; discuss relevant local government issues; or connect for other reasons. It is very easy to sign up, and I like the fact that the site verifies users by addresses, and it won’t allow people to access to a neighborhood if they don’t actually live there. Please note: the City of Daly City and/or the Police Department cannot see what residents post—we are only allowed to post information. There is also a mobile application, or you can have it sent to your e-mail. Give it a try! www.nextdoor.com
