Notable Cases


On Monday, 05-28-18 at 4:30 a.m., Officer Clinkscales and Sgt. Bowman were dispatched to a residence on the 6100 block of Mission Street on a report of a subject who believed there were people with firearms trying to break into his house. This same subject had called in earlier in the night saying a female and child were being raped inside of his house. The officers arrived, and the subject allowed them to make a protective sweep of his residence. The officers determined there was no merit to the call and believed that the subject was possible under the influence of a central nervous stimulant based on the subject’s behavior and movements. Officer Clinkscales told the subject he was going to conduct some field sobriety tests, and the 21-year old subject spontaneously said he used methamphetamine a couple days ago and he was seeing things that weren’t real. After conducting the tests, Officer Clinkscales determined the subject was, indeed, under the influence of a central nervous stimulant and placed the subject under arrest.

On Monday, 05-28-18 at 10:36 p.m., a 26-year old Chula Vista resident was arrested for driving under the influence after being involved in a collision with three vehicles in the area of northbound Highway 35 and Westridge Avenue.

On Wednesday, 05-30-18 at 8:00 a.m., following a traffic stop in the area of Mussel Rock, a 23-year old San Francisco resident was arrested for being in possession of a high capacity magazine and for being in possession of a narcotic (promethazine) with the name on the prescription bottle removed.

On Wednesday, 05-30-18 at 4:57 p.m., Officer Farrar and Officer Cordellos were dispatched to the parking lot of Jack in the Box on a report of a fight. The reporting party told dispatchers her son was being “jumped” at that location. When the officers arrived, several subjects pointed towards a red Mitsubishi leaving the area. Officer Cordellos caught up to the vehicle and affected a traffic stop. The reporting party told officers that the subject in the red Mitsubishi possibly brandished a firearm at the victim as they were leaving the parking lot following a dispute. The reporting party said she saw two subjects in the parking lot who were previously in a fight with her son and confronted them, saying that one of them pointed a black handgun at her during the confrontation. After a short investigation, the officers arrested the two subjects, 19 and 21-year old Daly City residents, for disturbing the peace and exhibiting a firearm.

On Friday, 06-01-18 at 8:19 a.m., Officer Hyink was dispatched to the unit block of Brooklawn Avenue on a report of a white minivan with two subjects inside who were possibly having sex. The reporting party said the vehicle was parked there overnight. Officer Hyink contacted the subjects, and the female subject, a 38-year old San Francisco resident, was on probation. The second suspect, a 39 year old Daly City resident, was subsequently cited for possession of methamphetamine and for possession of drug paraphernalia.

On Friday, 06-01-18 at 10:53 p.m., Officer Collins and Officer Moody were dispatched to the intersection of 90th Street and Edgeworth Avenue on a report of a drunk driver. The reporting party was on her way home from the City and called from the passenger seat while her husband drove. The reporting party said since the subject in the car almost hit several vehicles on the way home, they decided to follow him. The subject pulled over, and the reporting party’s husband parked around the corner. Officers contacted the driver, a 34-year old San Rafael resident, and after conducting field sobriety tests, they arrested the driver for driving under the influence.


Robberies

There was one robbery during the past week.

On Wednesday, 05-30-18 at 10:51 p.m., numerous officers were dispatched to the area of Rio Verde Street and Partridge Lane on a report of a just-occurred robbery. The victim, a 29-year old Daly City resident, said she was carrying four paper grocery bags and walking northbound on the west sidewalk of Rio Verde Street and noticed a male figure walking behind her. The victim said moments later, the subject behind her asked what she had in her bags. The victim said she sopped, turned around, and the subject began looking through her grocery bags and asked her if she had any money. The victim told the subject she did not have any money, and she said the subject then brandished a black handgun holding it at hip level. The victim said out of fear, she handed her purse to the subject who then ran eastbound on Partridge Lane from Rio Verde Street. The victim described the subject as a black male adult, approximately 6’ tall, average build, wearing a black bomber jacket with a hood and black pants. The victim was not injured, and the loss was a Michael Kors purse containing cash and miscellaneous items. Officers canvassed the area but could not find the subject.

Scams/Other

I.R.S. Scam

This scam has been going on for years, and unfortunately another Daly City resident fell for it. The 20-year old victim reported that a subject called him saying he was from the I.R.S. and that he owed the U.S. Government for unpaid taxes. The subject told the victim he could pay the tax lien in many different ways, but he preferred the victim to use a gift card. The victim purchased a $500 Google Play gift card and stayed on the phone with the subject while he made the purchase and gave the card number and verification code to the caller. The caller then demanded an additional $600, and the victim purchased two Google Play gift cards and once again gave the codes to the caller. The victim told the caller he couldn’t pay any more, and the caller said he would send the “sheriffs” to his door the next day if he didn’t pay more money. The victim was afraid and called us. Please share this sad story to your friends, family and co-workers. The I.R.S. has repeatedly said that they do not conduct business this way, and they would never call, much less ask for gift cards as payment for unpaid taxes.

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
