OAKLAND, CA — An ex-convict has been charged with four counts of assault on a peace officer for allegedly ramming Fremont police officers' patrol cars when the officers were trying to arrest him in San Leandro last week, authorities said Thursday.
Fremont officers who were investigating a series of East Bay auto burglaries that started in their city tracked Shacory Daniels, 30, and fellow suspect Frederick Harris, 24, to the Bayfair Center in San Leandro last
Thursday night and watched the men as they drove though the parking lot near Starbucks Coffee and 24-Hour Fitness, according to police.
The Fremont officers called San Leandro police for assistance at 9 p.m. last Thursday, when they believed the men were getting ready to steal another auto, police said.
