Captain Jack Hart

Commanding Officer

On this 30th Anniversary of the Loma Prieta Earthquake, let us be more prepared today, than we were yesterday, for when the unimaginable strikes! Resilient neighborhoods are those that are prepared, connected, and capable of mobilizing to help ourselves, our neighbors, our blocks, and our communities. Here are a few things to consider in this journey from preparation to awareness to mobilization: 1) To enhance district knowledge, go to sfpdinglesidestation.com and signup for the station newsletter. 2) To enhance incident awareness, register for AlertSF notifications by texting your zip code to 888777. 3) To enhance capacity, gathering supplies and make a plan. Go to: www.sf72.org. 4) To enhance community: a. Go to sfsafe.org and consider joining/starting a neighborhood watch group. b. Go to sf-fire.org and consider becoming a NERT-Trained Volunteer. c. Go to sanfranciscopolice.org/alert and consider becoming an ALERT member. d. Go to empowersf.org and consider hosting a neighborhood block party with the Neighborhood Empowerment Network (NEN). e. Go to your local neighborhood meetings.

Ofc. Albert Tien was born and raised in Methuen, Massachusetts. He traveled extensively as an Infantry Service member of the United States Marine Corps., from Camp Pendleton to Indonesia, Sana’a, Yemen, Bucharest, and Romania. After his service, he moved to San Francisco and entered the Police Academy in 2017. He trained at Mission Station, completed his probationary year at Richmond Station, and now is at his permanent home: Ingleside. He is married and a father of one son (a second child is on the way!).

Currently, Ofc. Tien is assigned to the day shift where he is proactively addressing all of the traffic “hot spot” locations in the District. He can be seen conducting high visibility enforcement and traffic calming on the Mission, Alemany, Cortland, Geneva, Dolores, San Jose, Diamond Heights, Silver, Bayshore, and other high volume corridors, but also on the small streets that are overcrowded and dangerous. If you’ve ever sent an email to us on a traffic issue, Ofc. Tien has been there. If you see him out and about, check your speedometer and seat belt, then wave hello. We are grateful to have him at Ingleside serving our great community!

SF Native Rose Ann Harris was born at San Francisco General Hospital and raised in the Mission District. Rose at-tended St. Anthony’s, Le Conte, the Lytton School, and Mission High School. After living in Visitacion Valley, she moved to the Excelsior in 1989 where she now resides.

Rose is an exemplary community member and volunteer. Rose volunteers for dozens of groups that support neigh-borhood connection and wellness, including the Excelsior District Improvement Association, the Outer Mission Mer-chants and Residents Association, McLaren Park Collaborative, the Excelsior Action Group, the Wildlife Conserva-tion Network, Neighborhood Emergency Response Team, the District 11 Council, and others. Recently, she was hon-ored as the Grand Marshall of Sunday Streets & the New Mission Terrace’s July 4th Celebration, while also being a NEN Lifetime Achievement Award recipient. The late Hon. Mayor Ed Lee proclaimed October 28th, 2014 in her name for the City and County of San Francisco.

Rose’s service mindset knows no bounds. Rose transformed her working life experiences as a waitress at Playland at the Beach, Zims, Mel’s Diner, Ott’s Drive-In, Mr. Brown’s, The Cliff House, and PJ’s Oyster Bed into being a selfless provider of food and service to every event she attends by reminding everyone: “food brings everyone together.” This spirit was on full display at this year’s National Night Out and also behind the scenes as she performs everyday hero-ics for her neighbors by taking them to doctor’s appointments, shopping, and helping with their household tasks.

We are humbled by her generosity of spirit and are inspired by her to serve others regardless of cost or effort. For all of these reasons, Rose is our Featured Community Member of the Month.

The victim told the responding officers that he was walking when he was approached by the suspect who brandished a handgun in his waistband. The suspect stole the victim’s necklace and cell phone. While speaking with officers, the victim noticed the suspect who had just robbed him emerge from a nearby residence. The victim quickly pointed out the suspect, who was taken into custody and transported to Ingleside Station. While officers were at the station conducting their robbery investigation, a second victim of this gun wielding suspect came to Ingleside Station to report he had also been chased and robbed at gunpoint. This victim was walking when the suspect approached him as well, then chased him, and pointed a gun at him demanding his items. Neither of the victims were injured during their incidents. The suspect was booked for both robberies and both assaults. Case #190753333, Case #190753333

Serious Incidents:

10:26am 200 Blk Vienna St House Fire Ingleside officers responded to assist SFFD on a 2 alarm house fire.

Officers quickly took action and effected a traffic stop on the vehicle, where the driver of the vehicle decided to stop right in the middle of the roadway.

Arrests:

3:12am Unit block Santos Street Aggravated Assault Ingleside officers Seavey and Jensen responded to an adult son pounding on his father’s front door. The caller and son are frequent flyers when it comes to family altercations, and the police being called. The son was less than cooperative when officers arrived on scene. The dad was adamant that he wanted his son to leave, and denied him entry into his home. As officers went to apprehend the son, the situation escalated, with the son fighting the of-ficers, and the dad interfering with the arrest of his son. The son was taken into custody af-ter a short struggle, and the dad was cited for his part in the incident. No officers or sus-pects were seriously injured during the incident. Case #190741827

Serious Incidents:

8:45pm Unit block Tiffany Ave Robbery Ingleside officers Casey and Vera were dispatched to a residence to meet with a robbery victim. The teenage victim told officers that he rode his bicycle to the area of Valencia and Duncan to get some skateboarding in. A male adult suspect approached the victim’s bike and appeared to be admiring it a little too much. The victim walked over to his bicycle at which point the suspect brandished a knife and told the victim he was taking his bicycle. The suspect rode away on the victim’s bike, and the victim went home to report the inci-dent. The victim was not injured during this incident. Case #190746811

7:34pm 3300 Blk Mission St Robbery Ingleside officers Wise and Siracusa responded to Safeway on the report of a suspect who assaulted an employee. Officers met with Safeway management who told them the follow-ing. A suspect attempted to exit the store with a full shopping cart of items without paying. As security tried to stop him, the suspect plowed his way into the parking lot using the shopping cart. The suspect then grabbed a glass bottle from the cart, and swung it at the security guard, nearly striking him. The suspect then walked away with bottle in hand, while security recovered the remaining items from the cart. Luckily responding officers were alert and took the suspect into custody before he could hit anyone with the bottle. A records check showed the suspect had an active warrant out for his arrest as well. Case #190738028

Serious Incidents:

9:23pm Geneva & Munich Robbery The victim was aboard a muni bus when a male juvenile attempted to steal his phone. The victim and suspect got into a wrestling match which led to them both being on the floor of the bus. The victim hit his head on the way down and broke his eye glasses. The cellphone came loose from the victim’s grasp and the suspect grabbed it and attempted to flee. A Good Samaritan stepped in, grabbed the suspect, and was able to get the victim’s phone back. The suspect then fled form the bus. The victim was not seriously injured during this incident. Case #190738181
