Captain\u2019s Comments:\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

Northern Station helped the community celebrate the Juneteenth parade and festival on Saturday June 15th<\/sup>. In addition to marching in the parade, members of Northern Station and other stations helped celebrate the festival on Fillmore Street with the community and the public. The festival was well attended and all seemed to enjoy the festivities of the event. This upcoming weekend Northern Station and other SFPD officers will be policing the \u201cPride Weekend\u201d events including the parade on Market Street and the festival at Civic Center Plaza. The festival will be both Saturday June 29th and Sunday June 30th<\/sup> from 10am to 7pm. The attendance at the festival for Sunday is expected to be in excess of 500,000 people. Please be aware that traffic in and around the Civic Center and the downtown area will be severely impacted on both days but especially on Sunday.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The next community walk with Northern Station officers is scheduled to take place on Thursday July 18, 2013. We will walk the lower Haight Street area with community members so that we can engage in conversation about concerns of the community while being able to visibly see issues that require attention. Please look for an announcement about a time and place to meet in my next newsletter.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The crime rate in the Northern has remained steady for the past month. Violent crimes are up 8% year to date which is consistent with the city wide trends. Where we\u2019ve seen an increase in violence in the Northern is in the areas of robberies which are up 12% year to date and aggravated assaults which are up 8%. In reviews of the robbery reports more than four in five robberies (80% plus) that occur involve the theft of electronic devices such as I-phones and I-pads. It cannot be stressed enough to be diligent of your surroundings at all times and to limit or eliminate the use of your cell phones in public. Until legislation is changed to make these phones obsolete after being stolen these electronic devices will remain the number one target of criminals. The theft from autos (car break-ins) remains the number one reason for the increase in property crimes in the Northern and in the City. The Northern District has the highest number of car-break-ins in the city. Northern Station officers have made over one hundred and forty five arrests year to date for theft, many for the crime of theft from an automobile. While we will continue pursuing these criminals to remove them from the street the number one deterrent to car break-ins is ensuring that you don\u2019t leave valuables in plain sight for a criminal to see. Here are the statistics for crime in both the city and the Northern District through May 25, 2013.<\/span><\/p>\n

NOTES OF INTEREST FOR JUNE 2013<\/span><\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span>The Line-Up is a crime prevention tool that allows the public to get involved through social media. The goal is to get the public involved in solving cold case files by watching and identifying video surveillance of suspects committing crimes. Contact information will be listed on the site and the public can be anonymous if they choose. The San Francisco Police Department will be releasing one video per week of suspect(s) involved in a criminal act. Remember, you have the power to make a difference in our community. Be a crime fighter and help us in identifying these criminals. The weekly videos can be accessed at the sf-police.org<\/a> website and by clicking on the \u201cline-up\u201d icon at the bottom of the first page. <\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Domestic Violence Information<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

The San Francisco Police Department\u2019s Special Victims Unit (SVU) is a centralized police investigative unit located at the Hall of Justice- 850 Bryant Street, Room # 500. A staff of inspectors at the SVU reviews 350 to 400 incident reports of domestic violence each month.<\/span><\/p>\n

The SVU investigates all felony arrest cases involving abuse committed against any person, who is a spouse, former spouse, cohabitant, former cohabitant, in a current or former dating relationship, in a current or former engagement, or have a child in common. This includes boyfriend\/girlfriend and same sex relationships. The SVU also investigates elder abuse cases (neglect and physical) and stalking cases. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

All non-arrest reports are also reviewed by the SVU. The SVU Inspectors telephone every victim in an attempt to advise her\/him about follow-up procedures and referrals. A message is left if voice mail is available. It is important to note that attempts are made to contact all victims in every domestic violence, elder abuse and\/or stalking case. Likewise, no SFPD domestic violence report is \u201cjust filed\u201d.\u00a0 All reports are reviewed; computer checks on alleged suspects for parole\/probation violations are completed; victim notifications are conducted and the results of all of the work are logged. <\/b>The SVU works closely with Victim Services, Adult Protective Services, and Safe Start l. If you are a victim or know someone who is a victim of domestic violence, please contact the SFPD\u2019s Special Victims Unit at 415.553.9227<\/a>.\u00a0 In an emergency, dial 911.
