Robberies
 
There was one robbery during the past week.
 
On Friday, 01-13-23, at approximately 11:05 p.m., officers were dispatched to the intersection of Geneva Avenue and Calgary Street on a report of a man down. The victim stated that he was walking when two males approached him and assaulted him. The victim did not understand what the suspects were saying, therefore, he handed over his wallet. The wallet contained $600 cash, a debit card, and a driver’s license. The victim said his head hurt from being punched and his leg hurt due to being poked by a knife. After the assault, the victim lost consciousness and did not know where the suspects fled. This investigation is continuing.

On Saturday, 01-14-23, at approximately 5:28 a.m., at the 100 block of Alta Vista Way, a suspect cut a window screen and pushed open a window to gain access to a garage. A resident stated that she woke up in the middle of the night after hearing a rumbling noise from the garage. When the resident opened an interior door to the garage, she saw that the garage door was open and a suspect was standing in the driveway. The suspect was described as a thin male, 5’4” tall, and wearing a black ski mask, black jacket with white sleeves, and dark-colored pants.

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
