Moraga Police Blotter
Driving too fast with little brother, 3/15/14 A 17-year-old driver was pulled over for going 52 mph in a 35 mph zone on Moraga Road near Corliss with her little brother in the car. It became a family affair when mom came to rescue the 10-year-old and dad and the teenaged driver agreed for her to enter the Juvenile Diversion Program, which allows young first offenders to learn from their mistakes.

Purse Stolen 3/15/14 A woman left her purse in her unlocked car on Donald Drive near the Hacienda and was gone for approximately 15 minutes. Much to her surprise, upon return to the vehicle, the handbag along with wallet and credit cards had magically disappeared. Loss estimated to be $500.

Where are my keys? 3/14/14 There was a party on Friday night at a Moraga Road home and on Saturday morning a key ring had vanished. The key's owner checked with roommates and party attendees, but she was unable to locate it. Be on the lookout for a key ring with one car key, a pink flip flop dangle along with a "2011" dangle.

Coupon conundrum, 3/14/14 An individual attempted to purchase a high volume of items with the use of coupons. The buyer believed restricting his access to items was against company policy because he was buying the items in support of a charitable organization. The manager informed the buyer that he didn't want him to clear out the inventory of the item. The manager felt that the would-be buyer may have obtained the coupons fraudulently, especially when he became irate and threatening. Officers advised the fellow he would be subject to arrest if he returned. The coupon holder said he'd sue, then left the property without incident.

Dog issue, 3/14/14 There was an off-leash dog at a Donald Drive residence. A fellow was walking by with his dog on a leash and was approached by the off-leash dog. The walker advised the homeowner of leash laws and requested he keep his dog on a leash; the homeowner allegedly became agitated and verbally abusive towards him and followed him on foot as he left. The dog walker was concerned for his safety and the safety of his dog due to the confrontation. Both parties were advised of the report and the incident was forwarded to Contra Costa Animal Services.

Tree vandalism, 3/11/14 An azalea tree had been pulled from the front yard of a Del Monte home sometime during the day by an unknown suspect. The victim noticed the damage to his landscaping at around 3 p.m. Total amount of loss is estimated at $150.
