Robberies
 
There were two robberies during the past week.
 
On Tuesday, 10-24-23, at approximately 4:51 p.m., an officer was dispatched to Punji Liquors at Skyline Plaza on a report of a theft. One of the owners said when she returned to the store, she noticed a suspect loitering in front of the cash register. The owner then saw a second suspect concealing approximately $100 worth of alcoholic beverages into a backpack. A third suspect was standing next to the second suspect, acting as a “lookout.” The owner walked towards both the second and third suspects, but the first suspect blocked her path and pushed her twice in the chest. The second suspect attempted to flee the store with the backpack of alcohol. The owner grabbed the strap of the backpack, and the second suspect held onto the backpack. Moments later, the first suspect proceeded to forcibly rip the backpack from the owner’s grasp, and they fled the store across the parking lot. The owners described the first suspect as a teenage male wearing a mask, a hooded sweatshirt with the hood over his head, and blue jeans with multiple tears. The second suspect was described as a teenage Hispanic female with long brown hair, carrying a multi-colored backpack, and wearing a black hoodie, white tee shirt, blue jeans, and black sunglasses. The third suspect was described as a teenage Hispanic female with long brown hair wearing a black long-sleeve shirt and blue jeans.
 
On Wednesday, 10-25-23, at approximately 5:58 p.m., an officer was dispatched to the parking lot of Walgreens on Mission Street on a report of a robbery. The victim said while she was on her way to Walgreens, a male suspect grabbed her iPhone 13 worth approximately $1,100 from her hand and fled.

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
