Subject arrested for ramming a vehicle because he was upset about the use of high beams. 
San Mateo, CA – On Sunday, January 12, 2025, at 3:49am, San Mateo Police were dispatched to the area of Pacific Blvd. and Laurie Meadows Dr. on report of a hit and run. As officers responded, Belmont PD advised they were in a short pursuit with the possible suspect vehicle and conducted a traffic stop, with the driver yielding on the unit block of 43rd Ave., San Mateo.
As SMPD Officers met with the victim, other officers responded and spoke with the suspect driver, identified as Frank Falcone. Falcone told them he had been driving northbound on Pacific Blvd. when he saw a vehicle driving southbound with their high beams on. This upset Falcone because of the brightness and potential radiation. He decided to ram the vehicle and when the victim vehicle was stopped, Falcone decided to ram the vehicle again. (The victim believed he had been rammed three times.) He then fled the scene and as the Belmont Police attempted to stop him, he decided to evade based on the fact people impersonate cops.
Falcone was arrested for assault with a deadly weapon (vehicle) and was transported and booked into San Mateo County Jail.
