Captain’s Message
The Broadway Corridor is still a priority concern. I will continually staff Broadway accordingly with uniformed foot patrol, vehicle patrol, plainclothes officers and various specialized units. Broadway business owners and management have also been working diligently on policing their respective businesses. Some of the businesses have installed security cameras and new computer systems that track each patron upon entry into these establishments. This will enable the businesses to identify problem persons and refuse entry to these persons in the future.

Captain’s Message
Dear Citizens of the Central District,
Sunday, April 29th at approximately 2:15 AM, a shooting occurred on the 1000 block of Montgomery Street. Witness reports a confrontation took place between a group of young males, wearing black “hoodie” sweatshirts, and jeans near the intersection of Broadway and Montgomery. Police officers were in the immediate vicinity (within one block) at the time of the shooting and detained several individuals who were attempting to flee from the area. At this time, no arrests have been made. The matter is under investigation and physical evidence recovered at the scene will aid in the investigation.
