San Bruno police officers arrested two Bay Area teenagers on separate occasions during a DUI Saturation Patrol.

The DUI Saturation Patrol was conducted in San Bruno last Saturday evening from 7 p.m to 3 a.m. Sunday morning, according to the San Bruno Police Department.

Jasmine Jaber of Fairfield, 18, was arrested at approximately 1 a.m. on El Camino Real and Angus Avenue. According to Sergeant Ryan Johansen, Jaber was cited for being under 21 and having a blood alcohol level of 0.1%, which is 0.02% higher than the legal limit.

Jaber was released at the scene to family members, according to police.

At approximately 3 a.m., police arrested Juan Tapia Garcia of South San Francisco, 18, at El Camino Real and San Bruno Avenue. According to Sgt. Johansen, Garcia had a blood alcohol level of 0.08% and was cited for conventional DUI.

Garcia was released to First Chance, a sobering facility for non-violent drinking and drug use offenders in Burlingame, according to Sgt. Johansen.

During Saturday’s DUI Saturation Patrol, San Bruno police issued seven other citations that included driving without a license, driving with a suspended license, not yielding to a pedestrian in the crosswalk, and two seatbelt violations.

“There will be multiple similar saturation patrols each month over at least the next six months,” Sgt. Johansen said.
