The following is from the Pleasant Hill Police Department:
Yesterday, PHPD conducted a theft suppression operation at the Crossroads Shopping Center. During this operation, officers recovered approximately $1,800 in stolen merchandise, and made 10 arrests at Dicks Sporting Goods, Kohls and Marshalls. The arrested individuals include:
1. Donovan Robinson of Hercules
2. Malik Viewins of San Pablo
3. Ernesto Olivarez of Oxnard
4. Michael Peterson of Fairfield
5. Brittne BennettGraves of Fairfield
6. Ari Forney of Pleasant Hill
7. Amber Andish of Concord
8. Jesse Smith of Concord
9. Shan Raheel of Fairfield
10. Laszlo Graham of Concord
This is another example of a targeted operation by the Pleasant Hill PD. Other local agencies including Martinez PD, Walnut Creek PD, Oakley PD, Brentwood PD, and BART PD all had similar operations and extra patrols. We are committed to combating theft and shoplifting in addition to our other duties. We thank our retailers and business partners for their support and assistance during this event. There will be more events similar to this in the future. All of these investigations will be presented to the Contra Costa County District Attorney for review.

Anyone notice police doing a lot more police work lately? Trump must be running for president again.
Prop 47 – named & OK’d by Kamala & promoted by Newsom – deal with the reality of it all. Lets do a story on punishment of these thieves…. I will be waiting….
Got to make CA look good for Harris LOL
I want the ages and mugshot plastered all over the place!! Where is the equality?? Everyone should have their name, age, city of residence and their mugshot presented!
And..a Melo’s shirt?? Hmm the general public doesn’t possess said shirt. Dang..should’ve stuck with making pizzas!
Also, the he last photo..the guy in the grey shirt sitting at the table..there’s a pre-roll joint tube there!! Must be fun to get high and steal things! Repercussions only come later…puff puff idiots
Thank you PHPD. Now if only the DA will prosecute these miscreants instead of excusing their behavior and letting them back out on the streets to shoplift again.
Correction… anybody can get a Melo’s shirt.
It might have been considerate to blur that logo since that local business does not deserve the bad publicity…. the skuzbag probably stole the shirt too!

Restaurants can”t buy this kind of advertising!
Good Work!
We can’t vote Trump in quick enough!! Great job catching the bad guys, but, they need to show their faces since they’ll be out within the hour. Make Shopping Safe Again!!
I fail to see how returning a serial felon to the White House will stop thieves from stealing. It seems to me that elevating a 34-count convicted criminal to the highest position in the land condones crime; it does not prevent crime.
You’ve got the talking points down really well. Good job absorbing the propaganda.
As for these arrests, let the charge dropping and plea bargaining begin.

Want property crimes to drop ? ? ?
Here’s your chance,
Proposition 36, Drug and Theft Crime Penalties and Treatment-Mandated Felonies Initiative

If there is no threat of substantial incarceration,
there is no deterrence to criminal behavior
Repeal Proposition 47. Let’s go back to having law and order. Untie the hands of law enforcement officers so they can do their job and back them when it comes to sentencing.
Good job LE! Now Becton do yours and prosecute to the full extent of the law!
Hats off to PHPD.
They have been cracking down on catching thefts and hope jail time sticks.
Hope Concord can do more, and it’s posted on Claycord too.
PD did thier job. Thank you.
DA do yours…….
Excellent work Pleasant Hill PD! Now DA Becton has to do her job.
I want to know if any of the 10 are here illegally, also let see our liberal DA
do her job……….sad that more of the 10 were back on the street before the officers were off shift
Earlier this week I had cause to visit a store in The Crossroads for the first time in a long time. The parking lot was a sea of paper license plates and limo tint regardless of vintage. Not a good sign.
