To report a crime that has already happened, call the non-emergency number 777-3333, or fill in OPD's Online Crime Reporting form.  You'll find the link on their Report a Crime page.

We're having a problem emailing to our Yahoo groups, Rockridge Neighborhood Watch Network and RockridgeNCPC.  I emailed the notice of the August crime stats a few days ago and have gotten two emails from my ISP's mail server saying the mail can't be delivered because the Yahoo mail resource is "temporarily unavailable."  If you try to post something to either of these groups and it doesn't appear on the list within an hour or so, please notify This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. and I'll look into it.  Most people use NextDoor these days, but a few people still post to the Yahoo groups.

I've opened a problem question on the Yahoo user forums - Yahoo doesn't have direct customer support any more.

Wherever the car burglars were in June and July, they’re back in Greater Rockridge.  Fortunately, crimes against the person and quality of life crimes declined slightly into August in beat 12Y, and property crimes dropped from 19 to 11, but auto-related crimes rose from 26 to 30.  In beat 13X, both types of property crimes increased, from 3 to 7 for ordinary theft and from 2 to 6 for auto-related crime.  Crimes against the person were flat in 13X and quality of life crimes decreased slightly.

The speaker at the Greater Rockridge NCPC’s August 9 meeting will be Gina Wong, OPD Communications Dispatcher.  The NCPC has asked her to discuss issues such as:

  • How many calls do they get?  How do they assign call priorities?
  • Staffing and training – what is the timeframe for recruitment and hiring?
  • When you call 911, what do they want to know?  Why do they ask that?  How do they hand off calls for dispatch?
  • What’s the issue with calling 911 from a cell phone?  What is the non-emergency number for?

Ms. Wong will also take questions.  Join us at 7:30 PM on August 9, in the conference room of the Rockridge Library, for this interesting subject.
