Residential burglary, 6/09/14 A Fernwood Drive resident had an estimated $15,000 worth of computers, digital cameras and other valuables stolen. The home was locked and vacant for a period of roughly three hours. It was determined that the suspects had entered through the garage door using the victim's garage door opener which had been stolen in Antioch earlier in the afternoon.
Hot dog in car, 6/08/14 There was a report of a dog locked in a car with three out of four windows cracked at 7:45 a.m. in 69 degree weather. The dog, a small white and brown terrier, did not appear to be in distress; the owner arrived and said he was in the gym for approximately 45 minutes. The owner was advised of the risks of leaving his dog locked in the car. Woof!
Tossing mystery object, 6/3/14 A car was being driven past Campolindo High School when a white male juvenile driving a newer BMW in the opposite direction tossed a hard, unknown object onto the windshield of the other driver's Toyota. Because she was startled, it was difficult for her to make out the license plate number. Due to an existing crack in the windshield it was hard to tell if there was damage done by the mystery item. Perhaps the object thrower should get detention for bad behavior?
Commercial burglary, 6/01/14 Moraga cops responded to a local home improvement store to investigate a report of thefts that had occurred over the previous weekend. Inventory was missing and video surveillance footage showed unknown suspects nabbing the goods over a two day period, exiting the store through an emergency exit. The unspecified goodies are valued at over $2,000. No suspects or leads, but the case remains under investigation.
Kid versus dog, 6/05/14 It wasn't even 7 p.m. when police responded to a report of a male juvenile abusing a dog on Moraga Road. Cops saw the kid and ordered him to stop as they approached. The youth ran from police, who eventually found him at his dad's house nearby. The fellow was arrested for resisting, delaying, obstructing an officer and was released to his father.
Not so handicapped, 6/05/14 A 27-year-old woman was parked in an undisclosed handicap zone. Clever cop figured out that she was not transporting a disabled person registered to the handicap license plate. She received a citation. Bad karma and totally uncool.
Driving while stoned, 6/6/14 Because of the late hour, close to 1:30 a.m., and erratic driving, cops pulled over a Ford Explorer and noticed the smell of non-burnt marijuana inside the car. A search revealed 3.5 grams of marijuana and an open box of American Spirit cigarettes - strong stuff for the 16-year-old driver. Both the driver and his passenger were issued citations.
