Theives Hit Car On Freeway Offramp, Then Carjack It

Sources within the San Diego Police Department say a local couple was quite frazzled last weekend after three suspects crashed into their car and then carjacked them.

The incident took place just before 10 p.m. on Saturday night, they said, when the couple was getting off Interstate 5 at the Nobel Drive offramp.

The driver of that car pulled over to exchange insurance information with the vehicle that struck them.  That's when one of the passengers of the other vehicle stepped out, pulled a gun and ordered the couple to hand over their keys, wallets and cell phones.  The woman's purse …

Passed Out Drunk Driver Caught With Weapons, Drugs

Most criminals try to do their best to avoid the long arm of the law, but that seems not to be the case in Northern California.

A spokesperson for the San Francisco Police Department say an alleged drunk driver has been booked at the Bryant Street Jail after police responded to call about him being passed out in his car.

Officers drove out to the intersection of Fullerton and 40th Avenue and arrived just before midnight.  Witnesses said they'd seen the car swerving about neighborhood streets; they suspected whoever was driving it had a few too many to drink.

Police found the …

Mail Thief Tries To Evade Police By Feigning Sleep

A lot of times, when a criminal realizes the police are on their tail, they make a run for it.  They sprint through yards, hop fences, but they rarely (if ever) stop drop and snore.

But this week, the Santa Monica Police Department said they arrested an alleged letter-snatcher after he did just that.  Mail theft is a very big deal, they said, and a suspect can't just sleep things off and pretend like the crime didn't happen.

Officers said they were tipped off about the letter burglar earlier last month.  The caller said someone had been pilfering things from their …

OC Jails Evaluating Programs To Help Reduce Recidivism

Officials in Orange County say they will likely expand their efforts to keep former inmates from committing new crimes once they are released.

This is all part of California's efforts to cut inmate populations at both prisons and the county jails.  Inmate overcrowding has long been a problem for the Golden State, according to sources, and it's gotten to the point where the Supreme Court has found it unconstitutional.  The justices went so far as to order CA to reduce their prisoner population to no more than 137.5 percent of rated capacity.

Prisons weren't prepared to simply open the floodgates for …

SD Jails Say The Veterans Unit Is A Success

In late 2013, the San Diego Jails did something unusual;  they created a separate unit aimed toward rehabilitating veterans who had found themselves on the wrong side of the law.

The walls are painted patriotic colors and armed forces banners are hung throughout the common areas.

At the Vista Detention Facility, a retired marine who volunteers at the jail tells the inmates that they served their country, they are special, and he doesn't want to see them back behind bars after their sentences are up.

From there, he made them each raise their right hand and vow to stay on the straight …

Suspected Drunk Driver Hits SDPD Squad Car At Checkpoint

A San Diego resident's bad night got a heck of a lot worse last weekend after they crashed their car into a SDPD police cruiser at a Pacific Beach checkpoint.

Two other cars were also struck during the accident, according to a department spokesperson.  No one was injured, they said, although the driver was taken into custody and charged with felony drunk driving.

Although most first-time DUI arrests in San Diego require the defendant post $2,500 bail bonds in order to be released from custody that bail amount can jump to $100,000 or more if the driver was in an accident.

The …

New Bail Scam Hits San Diego County

At this point, it seems like every time you turn around con artists have come up with another bail bonds scam.

Earlier this year, law enforcement agencies on the East Coast were tipped off that unsavory individuals were pretending to be calling on behalf of the sheriff's or police department, telling whoever happened to answer that if they didn't buy bail bonds by phone right then and there, an arrest warrant would be issued in their name.

Although a similar version of this ploy has been making its rounds throughout the nation the latest seems to involve bail bonds at the …

    ‘Mission Impossible’ Burglary Suspect Booked At Orange County Jail

‘Mission Impossible’ Burglary Suspect Booked At Orange County Jail

A representative from the Pomona Police Department have confirmed that officers have arrested a man who is believed to be the "Mission Impossible" burglar.

Although the suspect was initially booked in at the Huntington Beach Jail he's since been transferred to the Orange County Jail where he's being held on burglary charges; he's also facing one count of committing another crime while out on a community release program from a prior offense.

Jailers have not said what the previous crime relates to, but they did say the second charge has a no bail hold. If that's lifted when he goes to …

ATM Theft Via Forklift? It Almost Happened In Florida

Earlier this year, a Pennsylvania man was arrested after he stole a bulldozer with the intention of selling it to a scrap yard.  He was arrested and eventually booked into a local jail pending bail bonds.

Florida officials, though, say they're still on the lookout for a suspect who managed to make off with a fork lift.  If anyone has any information on who this is or where sheriff's deputies can find them, they're apparently all ears.

Authorities say the 10,000 pound piece of construction machinery was not only stolen from a construction yard, the thief then drove it about a …

SDPD Staffing Woes Continue To Worsen

It's been no great secret that the San Diego Police Department has a staffing problem on its hands.  One, more and more officers are approaching retirement age.   Two, newly trained rookies are being wooed to smaller departments in the county as soon as they are out of the police academy.

The San Diego Sheriff's and the National City PD are among those who are offering signing bonuses and better pay.

Today, sources close to the SDPD says their already bad problem seems to have taken a turn for the worse.

The number of officers leaving the department on a monthly basis is …
