The victim had posted some rare Jordan shoes on the internet and was to meet a subject to buy the shoes (Approx. $600 value per the victim). The suspect looked at the shoes and told the victim that he had the money in his car. As the victim started to follow the suspect, the suspect turned, grabbed the shoes out of the victim’s hands and ran. The victim followed the suspect into a parking lot were the suspect jumped into a vehicle with two other suspects.

April 11, 2009, Second Saturday

Tonight was Second Saturday and the midtown area was very busy with calls for service. Most of the bars had no issues even with the large amount of people in the area. Avalon (which stays open until 0300) had some 415/242 activity at closing time that required multiple units to clear out the parking garage. 15th St was temporarily blocked at H St. to facilitate a smooth and quick clearing of the subjects/vehicles. Once the blockage was created, the traffic flowed and the parking garage was cleared with no incidents.

 

April 11, 2009, 1616 J St (Azukar), 11:39 p.m.: Warrant Arrest/Drug possession

SCT68 (Morales/Fraizer) were alerted by door security that a subject was trying to enter carrying narcotics and had just fled from them. At about the same time, E Team members were on scene to do an attempt pick up of one of the bouncers there for a 245 warrant. Officer Morales gave chase and with the assistance of the E Team, captured the suspect in the alley behind. When they returned to the front of the club, the subject with the felony warrant walked up to hand them some additional narcotics that might have been dropped by the suspect (in addition to the narcotics the suspect had at the door). Both subjects were taken into custody without further incident. Excellent job by all officers involved.


April 12, 2009, 7th/J St (Image), 1:29 a.m.: Assault

Sgt Bassett of the E Team on viewed a subject kicking another subject in the head in a fight in front of the Image club around closing time. The subjects did not obey his order to stop and were then pepper sprayed. One subject (later found to be one of the bouncers) ran inside and the other subject also fled in the crowd. As officers arrived, no victim was located.

What is an "MBA" in the descriptions above? I assume it does not denote someone with a master's degree in Business Administration...
