Today, the suspect drove past the loss prevention officer, opened the front passenger window, pointed a gun at the loss prevention officer, and said, “You’re going to fuck with the wrong one.” The loss prevention officer said the gun had a chrome barrel and resembled a 45 caliber, Glock-type handgun. On Friday, 04-20-22, at approximately 10:30 a.m., the suspect, a 28-year old East Palo Alto resident, was seen walking to his vehicle.

Both subjects were standing near a city street with heavy traffic. It was a potential safety concern due to the area being dark. After making contact, it was discovered one of the subjects had an outstanding warrant. Officer Abuan arrived on scene to assist Officer Zhang.

Scams/Other
 
Gift Card Scam
 
On Friday, 04-22-22, at approximately 7:00 a.m., a 77-year old Daly City resident was almost the victim of a gift card scam. The victim received a phone call where the suspect said he was from Norton Internet security, wanted to refund her for a subscription and needed the victim to go buy eBay gift cards. The victim went and purchased a $300 gift card. After arriving home, the victim realized she was probably being scammed. The victim thought that the scammer was on his way to her home. The scammer called back and instead asked for the victim to read the serial number on the gift card to him. The victim did not give the serial number to the suspect. The victim was advised to block all further communication with the scammer.

Youth Unlimited Pilot Program
 
In partnership with the San Mateo County Office of Education, SamTrans is launching a six-month pilot program from January 1 through June 30, 2022. Known as the Youth Unlimited pilot program, it provides free SamTrans bus fares for Socioeconomically Disadvantaged (SED) students, as defined by the California Department of Education. SED students include students that are eligible for the Free and Reduced-Price Meal program, students experiencing homelessness, foster-youth, migrant students, and students whose parents did not graduate high school.
 
The overall goals of the program are to reduce transportation costs for low-income families, attract new and more frequent riders, and understand the potential operational impacts of providing free fares to some or all youth riders.

How do I get a Youth Unlimited pass?
School districts and individual schools are responsible for distributing the passes to eligible students. Contact your school if you believe you are eligible and haven’t received a pass.

What SamTrans bus routes serve my school?
Visit www.samtrans.com/schedulesandmaps/Get2School.html to see what bus routes serve each school, or call SamTrans Customer Service at 1-800-660-4287.

Will this program continue next school year?
SamTrans will evaluate the financial and operational impact of the pilot program before proposing to implement this program permanently next school year.

Nextdoor.com
 
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 a neighborhood if they don’t live there. Please note: The City of Daly City and/or the Police Department cannot see what residents post—we are only allowed to post information. There is also a mobile application, or you can have it sent to your e-mail. Give it a try!  www.nextdoor.com
