Police Log: Leadfoots; Bomb Squad; Scrappy Drunk

Notable incidents encountered Dec. 2 to 8.

A 37-year-old man, being placed under arrest for suspected public intoxication shortly after 2 a.m. Sunday on downtown's First Street, put up such a fuss with the Livermore Police Department, back-up units were called to assist, according to individuals at the scene.

"He was clearly resisting getting into the cop car," according to one witness. "They finally managed to get him into the car when he began kicking."

The suspect was removed from the vehicle, and with other officers helping, had his ankles placed in restraints, she said. 

He was eventually transported to Santa Rita Jail, Dublin, and booked for alleged drunk-and-disorderly conduct and resisting police, according to files.

His records show a prior Livermore arrest for drunken-driving in 2010.

Also last week, the bomb squad was called, plus numerous vehicular accidents were logged, including a car hitting a house, a car hitting a utility pole, and a freeway collision that sent a semi-truck sliding down the moutainside.

God bless you Ca1, You speak the truth. There is no green in electric car manufacturing or usage.Read More Why should I (ultimaltely) pay the cost of his free electicity. All this green stuff is phony-baloney, touchy-feely, feel good crap and it does nothing for us. Just like that ban on plastic bags and to add insult to injury, being forced to pay 10 cents for bags that the stores used to give out for free. This madness has to stop.

And as for this "Green" nonsense, keep in mind that when that electric vehicle wasRead More manufactured, pollution was generated, some of it toxic like how those tires were made, the brakes, even the hydraulic systems and the lubricants and coolants used--and then there are those batteries. And despite that, the vehicle still is not done polluting, especially when it needs electricity and that the power generation itself is going to be where the pollutants for this vehicle will come from while you are using it. Like my car and every other car out there, yours does have a tailpipe, just that it is not attached to the car, itself. And then comes the disposal of worn-out parts and even when the rechargeable batteries need to be replaced, all that selenium or in some cases even lead is going to require its own kind of disposal so that these do not harm the environment around them, because if they get released, they are toxic to most carbon-based life out there.

If you want charging stations put up, then you should pay to put them up. The rest of us don't wantRead More to give people who drive electric vehicles the "free ride", especially as their fees for their own cars go up as Alameda County institutes their $20/year surcharge for vehicles registered in the county. I know one thing, if I had a charging station set up for people to charge their electric vehicles, I would be charging those people money for charging their cars at my station. The electricity your car may use to keep its battery charged will ultimately be paid for by somebody else under the scheme of "public" charging stations. It costs money to generate electricity and you should be paying for that electricity wherever and whenever you charge up, plain and simple, since you use that electricity and should be both paying for it and paying taxes on it like the rest of us. Perhaps treating charging stations like parking meters should be the solution, even for the owners of businesses downtown, who may not like the idea of paying for your electricity usage to your vehicle and may view somebody asking them to do that as a "freeloader" or a "parasite", much as I view them when they ask for more charging stations.

Rafael and his crew do great work, and not just lawn service. He replaced our sprinkler system andRead More sodded two new lawns when we moved into our house. He and his crew have trimmed trees, planted flowers, and even built a new fence and gate. All at a fair price. I can't recommend his services enough.

Thank you D! We couldn't be happier to have a program like this in our community. We couldn't agreeRead More with you more that giving back is the whole purpose of the program; to make our community a stronger more musical one for our youth!

Kevin and Chris are good guys. They genuinely want to give back and care about introducing as manyRead More kids (young and old) as possible to the incredibly rewarding world of music. I am fortunate enough to have had somebody similar to these guys motivate me to get involved in music when I was a kid. 31 years later, I am still beatin’ on my drums every day. Great job Kev and Chris. Keep it up!
