On Saturday, 03-20-21 at 10:32 p.m., Officer Greene was driving a marked patrol car on northbound Highway 1 from Highway 35 when a Dodge Ram pickup quickly changed lanes directly in front of Officer Greene’s vehicle. The pickup was within five feet of the front bumper of the patrol car. Officer Greene conducted a traffic stop of the vehicle, and the driver explained his abrupt lane change was an attempt to let him know that he (Officer Greene) was driving in his blind spot. The officer explained to the subject that he could have either sped up or applied his brakes to avoid him being in his blind spot. The vehicle registration was expired in February 2020. The 59-year old driver, an El Granada resident, was on probation for driving under the influence and was subject to search/seizure and compliance checks. Officer Greene asked the subject if he had anything illegal on his person, and the subject said he did not. Officer Premenko arrived to assist, and Officer Greene searched the subject’s vehicle and found two glass pipes and a pill bottle containing 24 oxycodone hydrochloride pills, for which the subject did not have a prescription.

Martin were dispatched to a report of an assault with a deadly weapon by vehicle (a gray Dodge Dakota) on the 400 block of Irvington Street. The 30-year old victim said he and his girlfriend were standing outside their residence when they heard “grinding” noises. The victim interrupted a subject who was tampering with a vehicle and said the suspect got into a Dodge Dakota. The victim said he used his cellphone and started filming the subject in the vehicle. The vehicle backed out of the parking spot, did multiple turns to turn around and drove into the victim, striking the victim’s lower right side of his abdomen, right knee, and right forearm. This investigation is continuing.

On Sunday, 03-21-21 at 11:00 a.m., Officer Dolan was dispatched to Dunn Edwards on a report of a suspicious person who was acting erratically. Officer Dolan arrived to find the subject who completely ignored his presence and stared into the sky. The subject appeared to be under the influence and was unable to answer any basic questions. Officer Dolan detained the subject and found a glass pipe and torn piece of foil. Recognizing these objects are commonly used to ingest controlled substances, Officer Dolan brought the subject to the station to conduct a series of tests to determine if the subject was under the influence. The subject admitted to using both fentanyl and methamphetamine and couldn’t remember which one he recently used. Officer Dolan booked the 22-year old transient subject in jail for being under the influence of a controlled substance and for possession of narcotics paraphernalia.

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. 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 live there.
