DETALLES:
El Departamento de Policía de Oxnard recibió una 911 call from a motorist reporting that a Silver Dodge Ram truck had damaged a fence while driving off a used car lot in the 500 bloque de North Oxnard bulevar. As police officers were searching the area for the truck, a second phone call was received reporting that the stolen vehicle was in the 300 block of North F Street adjacent to a Red Ford Mustang (also found to be stolen from the same car lot).

Officers responded and found the Silver Dodge Ram truck leaving the area. They tried to stop the vehicle by activating their overhead red and blue emergency lights and siren, but the truck refused to stop. The truck accelerated away from the police cars and drove through the neighborhoods of Freemont North and Sierra Linda while being pursued by police officers.

When the truck drove onto the southbound 101 freeway, the Oxnard Police Department requested assistance from the California Highway Patrol (CHP) to take over the pursuit as it continued to Thousand Oaks.

The CHP chased the truck to the cul-de-sac of San Lucas Avenue in Thousand Oaks where the truck stopped. El controlador, Ayala, surrendered immediately. El pasajero, Castillo, fled from the truck and was apprehended a short distance away. Ayala was arrested for auto theft and evading the police and Castillo was arrested for resisting the police.

Because of the immediate 911 calls to the police reporting suspicious activity, both stolen vehicles (Dodge Ram and Ford Mustang) were located and returned to their owner and the suspects responsible for the thefts were arrested.

The Oxnard Police Department continues to encourage residents to be partners in public safety as part of the Operación segura y resistente initiative. Anyone with information regarding this incident should contact the Oxnard Police Department at 385-7600, o los del Condado de Ventura a Crime Stoppers al (805) 222-8477 y http://www.venturacountycrimestoppers.org/contactus.aspx.

These additional seminars are part ofour on-going effort to inform, engage and empower the residents of Oxnard on crime activity and crime prevention information. The Oxnard Police Department will be hosting Crime Prevention for Businesses, Julio 14, 2014 en6:00 p.m. yNeighborhood Watch Training, Julio 16, 2014 en6:00 p.m. Both will take place in the City Council Chambers at 305 En. Tercera calle, Oxnard and are free to the public.

Crime Prevention for Businesses Seminar
vehículos han sido robados en la ciudad de Oxnard, there has been an increase in businesses reporting crime. Crime reported ranges from shoplifting and loitering to commercial robbery. Upon review of the case and the scene, it was determined that some crimes were recurrent and could oftentimes have been prevented.

The Crime Prevention for Businesses Seminar was created to train business owners on how to provide a safe and secure environment for the customers and employees of businesses. It is also meant to bolster the relationship between the business community and the police department. In this one and a half hour class, attendees will be taught:

• Crime Prevention and Crime Reporting
• How To Make Your Business More Secure
• Robo en tiendas y Prevención de Robo de Interior
• What to do if a Robbery occurs

A training manual will be provided, tanto como, decals, pamphlets and supplemental materials.

Neighborhood Watch Training
There has also been a renewed interest in Neighborhood Watch and how neighborhoods can start their own. Several inquiries reference training have been received and the Oxnard Police Department has agreed to provide it.

Neighborhood Watches began mobilizing in the 60’s in response to high profile criminal cases where witnesses did not call police or assist in apprehending the offender. Groups formed to report suspicious activity in their neighborhoods and in 1972, the National Sheriffs’’ Association (NSA) created the National Neighborhood Watch Program to assist law enforcement and the public.

The biggest thing to remember is “watch groups are not vigilantes. They are extra eyes and ears for reporting crime and extra hands for helping neighbors.” ¹ Neighborhood Watch members are trained to be non-confrontational and used for observation and reporting purposes only. The group never serves as an extension of the police department or Code Enforcement. Some of the tasks members of Neighborhood Watch are asked to do are:

• Recognize and report crimes and suspicious activities;
• Protect themselves, their family and their property;
• Protect their neighbor’s family and property; y
• Identify crime and disorder problems in their area and work with Oxnard PD to solve them.

A training manual will be provided, tanto como, pamphlets and supplemental materials.

How to Reserve a Seat
This series of seminars builds on our Department’s Operation Safer and Stronger Initiative, which was launched by Oxnard Police Chief Jeri Williams at the start of the year to empower residents to be partners in public safety and address the increases in property crime citywide.
