Crime Alert Bulletin Covering the Week of November 11-17, 2024

When I mention “the unit block” of a street, this means the incident occurred at an address anywhere between 1 and 99 of the street.  
  
 
Robberies
 
There were two robberies during the past week.
 
On Saturday, 11-16-24, at approximately 1:14 p.m., officers were dispatched to Smart & Final on Mission Street on a report of a robbery. The victim stated that he was waved down by two unknown suspects in a vehicle. The victim described the suspect in the driver’s seat as a light-complexioned Middle Eastern male, approximately 30 years old. In the passenger seat was a light-complexioned Middle Eastern female, also approximately 30 years old, with shoulder length blonde hair. In the rear seat was a child approximately 7 to 8 years old. The victim approached the vehicle, and the suspects told him that, in their religion, they give people gifts on their birthday. While speaking, the female suspect grabbed the victim’s right hand and attempted to place necklaces around his neck, which he declined. The victim said the female suspect then grabbed his neck and pulled off his $10,000 necklace as they drove away. The suspect vehicle was a gray Ford Explorer.
 
On Saturday, 11-16-24, at approximately 6:23 p.m., officers were dispatched to the unit block of Crocker Avenue on a report of a robbery. The victim stated that she went to a store on the 6200 block of Mission Street to shop for Christmas decorations, but the store was closed. She then attempted to locate a clothing repair shop near the area. While searching for the shop, a suspect forcefully took her purse containing $1,500, a passport, and miscellaneous cards, a necklace, and an iPhone 15 Pro Max by punching her multiple times in the head and mouth. The victim described the suspect as a male wearing all-black clothing and a black face mask. This investigation is continuing.

The reporting party stated that he saw two suspects standing by the door holding a yellow crowbar. When the suspects noticed the reporting party, they fled westbound on 88th Street in a black sedan. The front door was partially pried open, but no entry was made. The reporting party described the first suspect as a White male adult, approximately 6’0” tall, wearing a ski mask, gloves, and all-black clothing.

SCAM ALERT: DCPD Phone Number Being Used to Spoof

Currently, the Daly City Police Department is aware of a phone scam impersonating officers of the Daly City Police Department. The number that's being "Spoofed" by scammers is 650-991-8119, which is the front desk line of the Police Department. This phone number only accepts phone calls and is unable to make phone calls. If you receive a call from the phone 650-991-8119, it is a scam.

If you receive a call or voicemail from 650-991-8119 regarding a “cybercrime, fraud investigation, that you have a warrant out for your arrest,” or other similar issues, please do not give out any information to the person calling and hang up. Our officers will not call you from 650-991-8119 and would never ask for money, money orders, gift cards, or any sort of financial compensation. If you receive a phone call from this number asking you to come in person to the Daly City Police Department, it is likely part of the scam. Please first contact the Daly City Police Department, or your local police agency directly, and verify the request before going to the police department.

If you have any questions regarding a call you received or if you were asked to come into the police station, please contact 650-991-8119 and you'll be connected with the front desk staff.

San Mateo County Alert System (SMC)
 
Have you signed up to receive these alerts? This alert is a free digital communication system used by emergency management agencies and first responders to send emergency alerts, notifications, and updates to portable digital devices.

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
