The Oxnard Police Department Property Crimes Unit would like to inform the residents and business owners of Oxnard that there have been eight (8) commercial burglaries between April 23, 2017 y abril 26, 2017.

This information is not being disseminated to alarm the business owners of Oxnard but to inform and prepare them to take precautions after-hours.

The Property Crimes Unit encourages you to consider the following tips to help your business avoid becoming a victim of crime.

Remove all currency on-site and deposit it at your preferred financial institution.
Leave the cash drawer open and empty after-hours.
fuera de horario, if possible and your register is located close to windows, remove the cash register altogether and store in a safe, locked area.
Consider purchasing and installing a surveillance system with cameras both in front and to the rear of your business (make sure it has the ability to record clear images at night).
Test alarm and surveillance systems for functionality when you test smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.

The Oxnard Police Department’s Property Crimes Unit, in its ongoing crime prevention efforts, would like to advise business owners that security assessments, crime prevention for businesses information and training are available by request. If you are interested in receiving further information, please contact Det. Crystal Walker at (805) 385-7668 or [email protected].

DETALLES:

The Oxnard Police Department would like to inform the residents of Oxnard that there have been four (4) residential burglaries between March 24, 2017 y abril 13, 2017. These particular residential burglaries are set apart by the fact that the burglaries occurred during fumigation of the residences. The burglaries occurred in four different areas of the city and there does not appear to be any connection at this time. The only commonality is that entry was forced.

This information is not being disseminated to alarm the residents of Oxnard but to inform and prepare them if they are considering fumigation of their residence.

Open and unlocked doors and windows have been the primary method and point of entry in almost half of the fumigation burglaries that have occurred in Oxnard in the past – most likely during the ventilation period of the process. En otros casos, doors and windows have been pried, smashed or bodily force was used to gain access.

There are a number of steps that residents can take to further protect themselves and their property. Your Oxnard Police Department encourages residents to remove small valuables such as money, jewelry, keys, personal documents, flatscreen televisions and small electronics. Residents are also encouraged to advise neighbors so they can be vigilant and help report suspicious people or activity during planned fumigation dates. además, residents can ask their fumigation company if they offer the installation of surveillance systems that can notify the fumigation company if entry is made to the residence. Your Oxnard police department does have a limited amount of temporary surveillance systems that they can install, at no charge, to residences that are being fumigated. They are available by appointment only and are subject to availability. To obtain further information, contact the crime prevention unit at 805-385–7668.

Help keep our homes and neighborhoods in Oxnard crime free and safe. If you see suspicious activity, please report to the Oxnard Police Department at (805) 385–7740 o marque 9-1-1. Anonymous information and tips can also be made with the Ventura County Crimestoppers at (805) 385–8255.

INCIDENTE:	Oxnard Police Department installs Community Cameras as part of their efforts to curb continued violence
FECHA / HORA:	Abril 21, 2017
UBICACIÓN:	Sierra Linda Barrio Rose Park Neighborhood
PREPARADO POR:	Eric S. Sonstegard, El jefe de policía asistente [email protected]
PERSONA DE CONTACTO e información de contacto:	Eric S. Sonstegard, El jefe de policía asistente (805) 385-7801

DETALLES:

The Oxnard Police Department recently installed the first of a series of Community Cameras in neighborhoods adversely affected by continued gang violence. These Community Cameras, which are housed in overt boxes with “Departamento de Policía de Oxnard” and “La protección de nuestra Comunidad con un servicio excepcional” printed on them, are installed in high pedestrian traffic areas in selected neighborhoods. They provide 24-hour a day video surveillance that investigators are able to monitor and record. The first two Community Cameras have been installed in the Rose Park and Sierra Linda neighborhoods.

Tristemente, the genesis for this program began out of tragedy. En febrero 17, 2014, 24-year old Joshua Van was senselessly shot killed as he walked with friends in the 2000 block of Mariposa Avenue. Joshua, a former basketball player at Rio Mesa High School, had just left the Circle-K market in the Sierra Linda neighborhood when he was confronted by gang members and shot.

Poco después, Cynthia Gonzalez, Joshua’s mother, accompanied by Joshua’s father, Carlos Gonzalez, and sister, Ciara Gonzales, began to be regular attendees at Oxnard City Council meetings. Cynthia would make impassioned pleas each week during public comments for the city to install CCTV cameras as a way to deter future violence. Cynthia was diligent with her comments, often citing public surveillance camera programs in other cities that had been successful deterrents to neighborhood violence. Meanwhile, Oxnard Police Investigators ultimately made arrests of two individuals responsible for the murder of Joshua Van. Their investigation was greatly enhanced by surveillance footage captured inside and outside the Circle K Market. This only made the Gonzalez family more resolute in their quest for CCTV cameras.

Trágicamente, the Gonzalez family would once again be touched by violence in 2016 when 32-year old Christopher Camper was shot and killed less than 1,000 feet from where Joshua was killed. Oxnard Police Investigators arrested the individual responsible for Camper’s murder and were again aided by surveillance footage captured by nearby cameras. Cynthia continued to attend City Council meetings in 2016 and ask for public CCTV cameras.

En el otoño de 2016, inspired by the Gonzales family and having seen similar successes in other cities, the Oxnard Police Department decided to partner with the Gonzalez’s and begin a Community Camera program. The Department earmarked asset forfeiture funds to develop the first two prototypes of what are now called Community Cameras. Cynthia, Carlos, and Ciara attended neighborhood council meetings with Oxnard Police Department staff to help tell the story of Joshua and answer any questions about public surveillance cameras.

The Oxnard Police Department plans to install additional Community Cameras in 2017 in a number of selected neighborhoods. Asistente Jefe Eric S. Sonstegard- “These cameras are one tool in a multi-faceted plan to address continued gang violence. We understand they won’t prevent everything but we believe the presence of video surveillance cameras can have a positive effect on increasing public safety. Their mere presence can act as a powerful crime deterrent and evidence obtained from video gathered can be invaluable in some police investigations.”
