The search is on for the suspects in a jewelry store heist at Eastridge Mall in San Jose. Surveillance cameras captured all five of them, behind the smash-and-grab that lasted less than 15 seconds. The owner, who wanted to remain anonymous, says he has been at Eastridge Mall for 20 years. This is the first time thieves have nearly wiped out his modest-sized store. He says just minutes before 3pm Thursday afternoon.

Five people wearing masks, hoodies and gloves walked in, most of them carrying hammers. The owner says they didn’t say a word as they shattered each display case and grabbed as much jewelry as they could. Then they got away with hundreds of thousands of dollars in jewelry.

He is not the only business at Eastridge that has been targeted by thieves. J & Huss Jewelry was also robbed recently. Last week, the owner says thieves attempted to rob him again. But now, he keeps his door locked.

An independent investigation into the 2020 police

An independent investigation into the 2020 police shooting death of Sean Monterrosa concluded that the use of deadly force by a Vallejo officer was not “objectively reasonable.”

For Monterrosa’s family, this is just one step in seeking justice for their loved one.

On June 2, 2020, Vallejo police responded to a looting call at a Walgreens. Monterrosa was shot by an officer who mistakenly thought a hammer he had in his pocket was a gun.

Since the incident, several investigations have been initiated, including an independent review.

Officers at the scene were interviewed with one recalling, “You hear on the radio ‘I think they’re armed.’ Then you heard pop pop pop.”

The investigation relied heavily on interviews with the officers and on body-cam footage of the incident. Vallejo police also released portions of the interviews they conducted.

One officer remembered the night this way: “Kind of an emotional night, it looks like the car started taking off and I think he thought he was being left so he turned back towards the cops at that point.”

The review not only concluded the shooting was not “objectively reasonable” but investigators said Monterrosa’s perceived threatening behavior was predicated on the tactically-poor way the officers responded and on their failure to deploy any de-escalation techniques.

Vallejo police chief Shawny Williams said these findings are the first steps to discipline the officer and he wants to be open, fair and transparent throughout the process.

The criminal investigation is currently being conducted by the California Attorney General’s office.

‘We Just Want Him Back’: FRENCH BULLDOG STOLEN

‘We Just Want Him Back’: FRENCH BULLDOG STOLEN AT GUNPOINT IN OAKLAND

(Repost @bett_yu )

Hannah Nelson @yaaaahannah held back tears, speaking about her almost 2-year-old Frenchie Merlyn, who she says was stolen at gunpoint on Saturday.

Nelson was out of town for Thanksgiving, so her friend Marieka Bayens took him for a walk, just after 6 p.m. at 24th and Valdez Streets in Oakland.

“All of a sudden these two men came out from nowhere,” Bayens said. “One approached me basically straight on, pointed a gun at my face, and said give me the dog, and the other one grabbed Merlyn.”

She said the two men hopped in a car and sped off going the wrong way down a one-way street toward Whole Foods.

French Bulldogs are a popular breed and often targets for robbers across the country, because they can fetch high prices.

“It’s even hard for me to contemplate why someone would even do this. We just want him back,” said Nelson.

Merlyn is about 26 pounds and grey with black spots. His belly and chest are white. Nelson has set up a reward website for Merlyn’s safe return: www.rewardformerlyn.com

Murder suspects arrested, charged and then release

Murder suspects arrested, charged and then released with zero bail. Now, San Jose’s top cop and city leaders are sounding the alarm.

Top San Jose officials, including Police Chief Anthony Mata, are sounding the alarm about bail policies after three murder suspects were released awaiting trial, saying it puts the community at risk.

Mata, along with San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo and Santa Clara County District Attorney Jeff Rosen, expressed concern over the release of the homicide suspects under a new law that allows judges to grant zero cash bails for those who can’t afford to pay them.

Oscar Medina Soto was trusted by a judge to stay in Santa Clara County before his trial. Instead, Soto is believed to be somewhere in Mexico and now wanted by San Jose Police.

On Tuesday, police confirmed Oscar Medina Soto was granted the Supervised Own Recognizance Program, or SORP. He was released from jail after allegedly fatally shooting a man on the 2300 block of Mammoth Drive on Jan. 10th.

Last month, Alfred Castillo and Efrain Anzures also walked out of jail after being charged for allegedly shooting and killing a man who crashed into them. Their defense attorney told KPIX 5 that the shooting was self-defense.

All three of these suspects released on zero bail, under a new California Supreme Court ruling to end cash bail for those who cannot afford to pay them.

"This is a danger to the community it sends the wrong message to the community to our officers and most importantly to the victims family that this crime is not being taken seriously by the system," says San Jose Police Assist. Chief Paul Joseph.

A retired Superior Court Judge says they take in a multitude of factors when deciding bail that includes criminal history and whether someone is a flight risk.

Owners have locked out baseball players in MLB’s

Owners have locked out baseball players in MLB’s first work stoppage in 25 years. What this lockout means is that the sport of baseball is at a standstill right now. It is unclear what this will mean for the rest of the season though.

At this point, owners have locked out players. All players have been removed from team websites, the reason is because that collective bargaining agreement between the players and owners expired just before midnight. Teams are not allowed to talk to players, make major league signing or swing trades. There is no telling when this will end.

The collective bargaining agreement has not been reached and owners are not letting the offseason to go on without one.

This lockout is only the 9th one in baseball history. The commissioner of baseball says families love watching the sport. Part of his statements says: “That is why I am so disappointed about the situation in which our game finds itself today. Despite the league’s best efforts to make a deal with the players association, we were unable to extend our 26 year-long history of labor peace and come to an agreement.”

The players association responding too, calling the lockout dramatic and unneeded.

The baseball commissioner also added that it is a tough one but says there is a path to a fair agreement and says they will find it.

There will soon be more police officers in downtow

There will soon be more police officers in downtown Walnut Creek.. this just weeks after a caravan robbery targeted Nordstrom in Broadway Plaza. The Walnut Creek City Council voted Wednesday to spend 2-million dollars to hire 5 more officers specifically to patrol the shopping corridors, plus more security cameras and a tethered drone to be an eye in the sky over Broadway Plaza. The funding for the additional security measures is coming from the American Rescue Fund Act, which is federal money designed to help offset the impacts of COVID-19. Walnut Creek’s mayor says because these robberies are a public safety issue, the funds can be used to hire more officers.
