Noteworthy Information

1. We conducted the testing and interview process for the open Officer and Dispatcher positions. Two candidates for the positions have been put into the background process and we will be holding another test in October for the final open Officer position.

2. Three incidents were reported where students saw posts on "SnapChat" that someone was going to shoot or stab someone at Analy High School. We investigated these cases thoroughly and determined there were no credible threats to students or staff. In one incident we collaborated with the school and the re-instated Crisis Assessment, Prevention & Education team (CAPE) team. The CAPE counselors did a great job and found that the student had been going through a very rough time at home and realized he made a big mistake with what he was posting.

3. The third incident, we received a report of a student being chased by another student with a knife. We arrived and determined no one had been stabbed or injured. The involved students were at the skate park during school hours and got into an argument and one of the juveniles threatened to stab another if they did not leave him alone.

Based on lack of evidence and corroboration, no arrests were made.

4. Complaints and concerns continue over the homeless encampments on the Joe Rodota Trail and fronting the old Horizon Shine location. The bulk of these concerns are due to fire and personal safety. Officers and our outreach coordinator have contacting individuals in both locations to expedite debris removal while attempting to connect them with services. We have notified the people in the area that we will be clearing the area on October 10th.

5. We have increased our patrols at Safeway during high school hours, lunch period and when they get out of school.
