Golf balls boosted, 10/30/09 Four male teenagers hopped out of a newer black BMW X5 and proceeded to fill four green range ball baskets with golf balls at the Moraga Country Club range shack. Each basket holds about 80 golf balls. During the course of the investigation the ball thieves were fingered. The Club decided the incident could be handled without further police involvement. A potential Halloween prank foiled. What were those boys thinking? Estimated loss, about $300.

Drunk student, 10/30/09 A 19-year-old non-student was attending a dance at Saint Mary's College and had been seen by SMC staff passed out on the ground outside of the event. The young man was transported by the fire department to be medically evaluated. Getting wasted - not much of a trick; getting your stomach pumped, definitely not a treat.

Older pedestrian vs. vehicle, 10/29/09 Officers responded to Corliss Drive on a report of a 94-year-old male lying in the street bleeding badly. He was hit by a car after escorting a student, presumably a grandchild, to school and was bleeding heavily from his head. Paramedics took him to John Muir Hospital in Walnut Creek where it was determined he had sustained skull and facial fractures as well as a fractured femur.

Pot Krispies, 10/28/09 Officers came to Campolindo High School and determined that one student had marijuana for sale and another student had rice krispy treats, laced with suspected marijuana, for sale. The school suspended both students for five days pending expulsion. Both kids were arrested and released to their parents at the police station. Perhaps both kids were absent when the administration reviewed the meaning of "zero tolerance."
