Santa Clara Police Report: January 17 – 23

The Police Blotter highlights a partial list of incidents in the city and is distributed on a weekly basis. The Blotter provides the date, time, approximate location, a narrative summary of the incident, case number and the most serious arrest charge.

Meanwhile, the Arrest Log provides a timely, chronological summary of all the arrests made by the Santa Clara Police Department. It includes the name of the suspect(s), date of birth, city in which they reside, arrest date, time, location, case number as well as all the charge(s) associated with the arrest. This information, located on the Santa Clara Police Department’s home page (www.scpd.org), is updated daily and serves as the most comprehensive list of arrests made.


Based on the mandatory orders from Santa Clara County Public Health, the City of Santa Clara has implemented many service level changes, limited to essential services. Since the preparation and distribution of a Police Blotter is not an essential service, it will be produced as resources are available.

Felony Evade

Location: Cabrillo Avenue and Hoover Drive

An officer observed a vehicle traveling slowly through a neighborhood near Cabrillo Avenue and Hoover Drive occupied by two male subjects. Given the hour and the fact that the vehicle was full of construction equipment, commonly stolen during burglaries, this peaked the officer’s interest.

A DMV database check revealed the vehicle was stolen out of San Jose. While following the vehicle to allow additional officers to arrive before initiating a high-risk traffic enforcement stop, the vehicle continued onto southbound highway 101. With support nearby, the officer activated the patrol vehicle’s overhead lights and sirens. The vehicle fled the area and was pursued to the area of Santa Clara Street and 17th Street in San Jose where it was lost. Members of SCPD unsuccessfully combed the area for the vehicle and/or subjects.

The San Jose Police Department recovered the unoccupied vehicle at approximately 0045 hours. The subjects remain unknown and at large.

NOTE: Santa Clara University (SCU) students are expected to commit to the Bronco’s COVID-19 pact:

  • Pledge to follow state, county, and University guidelines
  • Participate in SCU’s COVID-19 contact tracing program
  • Wear face coverings at all times on campus — indoors and outdoors
  • Maintain six feet of social distance at all times — indoors and outdoors
  • Refrain from entering other residence halls, hosting any guests, or using common spaces while living on-campus

Failing to comply with our collective commitment to safety efforts during this pandemic is a serious violation of the Student Conduct Code. Students who are cited for failing to abide by campus, county or state health and safety protocols are subject to the full range of disciplinary actions including fines, restricted access to campus facilities, disciplinary probation, deferred suspension, suspension, and expulsion. The Student Conduct Code and its full range of disciplinary actions applies to all students whether living on or off campus.

To report a SCU COVID-19 violation, contact SCU Campus Safety at 408-554-4441 or campussafety@scu.edu. It should be noted, the Office of Student Life is responding to reports of student misconduct from the SCU community, residents and the Police Department from this past weekend. New misconduct reports can be filed using the General Student Misconduct Form at https://www.scu.edu/osl/report/ or by sending an email to OSL@scu.edu.

Meanwhile, the Police Department staff’s extra police officers on weekends where party activity is predicted. These officers handle all calls related to party complaints in the Santa Clara University footprint. The primary focus of the officers is disturbance calls disrupting the peace of the neighborhood, amplified music and loud and unreasonable noise after 10 p.m.

Officers responding to any type of complaint complete a “First Response” notice. The first, or subsequent, response documents the facts related to the party complaint and identifies the resident(s) hosting the party. These reports are forwarded to the Community Response Team (CRT) who conducts an analysis of each first response. This analysis considers previous calls for service at the address, the size of the party, whether underage drinking was occurring, and other factors related to the City Code. CRT then issues citations to the property owner and/or property management company as the responsible party. The penalty amount for a first response is $500 and are graduated up to $1,000 per response if five or more occurrences take place within one year.

This past weekend, the Police Department issued 12 first responses. Following an analysis of the first responses, CRT issued eight citations totaling over $4,000 in fines.
