Moraga Police Blotter
Stolen credit card number, 9/20/11 A Woodside Drive resident had a surprise when he found out that his debit card had been used to make purchases for someone else. The shopping spree, totaling $1,200, was reported to the bank.

Mailbox hit and run, 9/17/11 At 3:45 in the morning a Hardie Drive mailbox valued at $1,700 was struck by a car that fled the scene. Moraga police checked the area and found the car and adult male driver nearby. The case is currently under investigation.

Caught allegedly in time, 9/16/11 Moraga police were dispatched near midnight to Saint Mary's College for three adult men who possessed burglary tools. The Saint Mary's College Public Safety officer reported that no burglary had occurred on campus. The detained men offered to give the cops their burglary tools. Since there wasn't a crime, the fellows were free to go.

Cash Maximized? 9/16/11 A Woodminster Street resident contacted police because someone withdrew $250 from her "Cash Maximizer" account. The slightly poorer card owner has no idea who is involved and how her account number was pilfered.

Car broken into, 9/16/11 The front window of a Volvo was smashed at the Moraga Swim Club and a red Cole Haan purse was taken along with the usual wallet-related contents. Bank cards were cancelled, although only after one bank card was used at the Concord BART station. Silly thief, cops requested security video from their pals at BART.

Car vanished, 9/15/11 On a random Thursday night, the daughter of a Hardie Drive home and car owner parked and locked her Honda Accord in their driveway. Daughter was ready to leave at 7:30 the next morning, but the car was gone. No sign of the car in the area.
