Police log: "Two males broke into a vehicle on Chaplin Drive and the victim chased them into Quarry Lakes causing the suspects to drop tools. Several Fremont officers, East Bay Parks Officers, and an East Bay Parks Helicopter searched the area. K9 Officer Smith deployed his tracking bloodhound K9 Xena and she led him directly to one suspect, a 24 year old man, hiding in the bushes. A want’s check revealed the man had three outstanding warrants and was partially identified by the victim. The second male was not located."

Police log: "Just before 9:00 p.m., officers were checking Mowry East for auto burglary activity and specifically a silver Mazda SUV responsible for numerous auto burglaries in several cities, including Fremont. Over the last two weeks, it has hit shopping centers in all three zones of Fremont. Video of the suspects was captured the night prior where a large sum of cash was lost from a vehicle in Mowry East. Officer Soper spotted the vehicle in the Mowry East shopping center and it immediately fled northbound I880. A pursuit was initiated. Officers followed the vehicle. The suspect car was disabled after it sideswiped another vehicle then crashed into the sound wall on I880 south of Whipple Rd. The three occupants of the suspect vehicle were all detained. Two suspects, a 21 year old and a 19 year old were booked at Santa Rita Jail. The driver of the suspect vehicle was admitted to the hospital for injuries sustained in the collision. The driver of the other vehicle was not injured. Loss from auto burglaries was recovered from the vehicle."
