It is my pleasure to present the Davis Police Department’s Annual
Report for 2014. Contained in this report are details outlining the
fine service the men and women of the Davis Police Department
provide on a daily basis to this community.
The Davis Police Department is a municipal law enforcement
agency, currently staffed with 61 sworn police officers, 37 civilian support professionals, one
canine, and over 60 Volunteers in Police Service (VIPS). As part of the City of Davis’ public
safety team, the Davis Police Department provides professional law enforcement, order
maintenance, crime prevention planning and coordination services that contribute to discouraging criminal behavior and enhancing community livability and sustainability. To further accomplish our public safety mission, we work closely with the Davis Fire Department and the
University of California Davis Police Department, as well as our fellow Yolo County and regional law enforcement and criminal justice partners. We value those partnerships. Our sharing resources and best practices theory helps strengthen and improve the quality of public
safety in and around Davis.
I am very proud of the members of the Davis Police Department and the reputation they have
earned for contributing to the vibrancy and the quality of life that our community enjoys. Our
continuing commitment to the delivery of professional, responsive, and fair police services is
our pledge as part of the entire City of Davis government team's mission to provide sustainable neighborhoods and community.
Further, ours is a commitment to ensuring that everyone with a stake in keeping Davis a safe
and livable city has a voice in the process; both in the way we do business as well as how we
develop and grow as a department. We are always available to answer your questions and
address your concerns. If you have a compliment on something you feel we did well, a complaint about something you don't think we did well, or a suggestion regarding a service you'd
like to see added or changed, please let us know. If you see us out and about, stop to say
hello!

Historical Facts About Davis Police Department
Law enforcement took off to a dramatic start when
the City of Davis was incorporated on March 28,
1917, with a population of 979 inhabitants. The first
Board of Trustees enacted 16 city ordinances, ranging from banishing all livestock from city streets and
sidewalks, to prohibiting the littering of streets with
such things as paper, filth, and sweepings from
stores.
The first known police facility was an old “plank jail”
located adjacent to the courtroom of the Justice of
the Peace on the east side of Oak Street, somewhere south of the old Police Station & Historic City Hall on F Street. Prior to that, most people
who ran afoul of the law were placed in the American Hotel at the southwest corner of Olive and
2nd Streets, presently known as 3rd and G Streets. In August of 2001, after outgrowing the F street
location, the Department moved to a new modern facility located on Fifth Street, in South Davis.
The first city marshal was appointed sometime in 1917 by the Board of Trustees. An early Davisville resident, Jesus Pena, assumed those responsibilities, including enforcing the newly-enacted
city ordinances, as well as the job of wetting down the streets of Davis with a horse-drawn water
wagon during the hot and dusty summer months.
The first recorded Justices of the Peace in Davisville were William H. Marden in the South Putah
Township, with Charles E. Green holding the same office in the north area. Davis’ first justice of
the peace was William H. Scott, who held the office from 1899, where he was reported to have
held court in a barbershop on Main Street, until 1942.
Davis’ first full-time, paid police officer, Floyd Gattrell, was hired in June 1927. He was hired as a
traffic officer and patrolled the streets on an early-model motorcycle. On December 15, 1927, with
the population of Davis swelling to approximately 1,000 inhabitants, the Board of Trustees appointed Gattrell as Davis’ first police chief. Since that time, the Department has seen nine other Police
Chiefs, including Landy Black, who has served as Police Chief since 2007.

Special Honors
Officer Of The Year—2014
The Officer of the Year is traditionally selected from those officers who
demonstrate exceptional performance throughout the awarded year,
and who exemplify or support the Department’s policing efforts. Officer
Derek Russell has demonstrated such exceptional performance, and
was nominated by his peers as Officer of the Year for 2014.
Officer Russell has been with the Davis Police Department for 4 years,
coming from the Oakland Police Department where he worked as a patrol officer for 3 years. Since his arrival here, Officer Russell has maintained the highest level of commitment to the Davis Police Department,
and the law enforcement profession as a whole.
In 2013, the Department adopted an Intelligence Led Policing (ILP) philosophy, which simply means we use crime data and information to focus our prevention and policing
strategies towards those people and areas that create the largest crime problems in the City and/or region. Information largely comes from patrol officers, like Derek, who are routinely contacting people and
sharing the information they glean with others in the Department.
In late 2013, while facing a significant increase in property crimes, the Department created the Special
Assignments and Focused Enforcement (SAFE) Team. Their mission was to use the information provided by others and take steps to prevent and reduce crime. Although Derek applied for a position on the
team, and was not selected, he has become one of the leading sources of information for furthering our
ILP efforts. According to SAFE Team members, Derek has led the Department in providing intelligence
information, largely because Derek leads the Department in arrests, including felony arrests, and constantly makes contacts with people while patrolling his beat, so he often knows who is up to what.
An example of his work includes, after seeing a rise in heroin related incidents, Derek provided intelligence information to the SAFE Team and, as a result, the SAFE Team was able to serve a search warrant in West Sacramento and shut down a heroin sales network.
Derek was also recently selected to be a Department Use of Force instructor (Firearms and Defensive
Tactics). Part of the reason he was selected was because of past sound decision making and his status
as a respected informal leader by his peers. The Department is confident that Derek will pass on his
knowledge, skills, and excellent work ethic to others.
Finally, a nominating supervisor wrote, “Police Officers like Derek Russell reflect greatly on the City of
Davis, the Davis Police Department, and the law enforcement community as a whole. There is not an
officer in this Department who would not want Officer Russell as their back up; nor is there a citizen in
this community who would not want an officer like Derek Russell responding to their aid when they dial
911.”

Special Honors
Public Safety Dispatcher
Of The Year—2014
Public Safety Dispatcher Tanya Baumeister was nominated by her
peers as Dispatcher of the Year for 2014.
Tanya, who has been with the Department since 2006, was nominated
for this award because of her excellent radio and call-taking skills,
which she displays on a continuous basis, but especially during a few
stand-out events. In particular, on March 7, 2014, Tanya was working
fire dispatch when she received a call where an expectant mother was
giving birth in a vehicle that didn’t quite make it to the hospital in time.
Despite dealing with a dropped transfer of the 911 call, and in progress
birth, Tanya did a great job with directing the caller and getting Fire and AMR dispatched.
On May 22, 2014, as the Fire Dispatcher, Tanya handled the dispatch responsibilities when over 100
residents of a convalescent home had to be evacuated following an electrical fire. Tanya had to coordinate transportation for numerous adults who were wheelchair-bound. This was no easy task.
On July 17, 2014, Tanya, along with her shift, dealt with a missing, at-risk adult. The department utilized
all resources, including police and fire volunteers. Tanya did a great job coordinating as the whole room
worked together to meet the multiple requests coming in to dispatch.
Tanya has worked the Wednesday through Saturday night shift for a number of years. This shift consistently has the highest number of phone calls and in progress emergency incidents. Tanya has mastered
the work-load and handles the busiest shift with ease.
Tanya has been very responsive with last minute sick calls and staffing shortages that include modifying
her schedule to meet the needs of the department. Her response to sick calls has been exceptional.
Shift partners and officers have also expressed their pleasure with her being on their team.
Tanya has been a Communications Training Officer for several years. This last year she took on the
additional collateral assignments of Tactical Dispatcher and was recently selected for the Hostage Negotiations Team. She is extremely enthusiastic about these assignments, as well as serving exceptionally in her primary assignment as a Public Safety Dispatcher.

Sample Highlights from 2014
On January 27, 2014, Officers were called to the 2400
block of Moore Boulevard in Davis, after receiving a
report of two suspicious people looking into vehicles.
When Officers arrived, they observed a vehicle leaving
the complex. Officers stopped the vehicle and made
contact with the two occupants. During their investigation, officers determined that the driver of the vehicle,
was driving under the influence of alcohol. A subsequent search of the vehicle revealed property that had
been taken from a vehicle burglary in the 2400 block of
Moore Boulevard. Both the driver and passenger were
arrested on burglary, conspiracy, and possession of
stolen property. The driver had an additional charge of
driving under the influence. Both were taken to the
Yolo County jail.
On February 9, 2014, the Department received a report of a vehicle stolen from the
1200 block of Halifax. As Officers were responding to the area, they located the stolen
vehicle traveling on W. Covell Boulevard. The vehicle traveled north, toward Woodland,
and was eventually stopped by Officers. Officers detained and eventually arrested two
16 year old juveniles from Woodland. Additional property belonging to another victim of
theft was located inside the stolen vehicle. The driver was arrested for possessing a
stolen vehicle and driving without a license. The second juvenile was arrested for possessing a stolen vehicle and petty theft. The driver was booked into the Yolo County
Juvenile Hall, while the passenger was cited and released to an adult.
On April 23, 2014, Officers arrested three people
in connection with a robbery that occurred on
March 6, 2014, in the 1800 block of Cowell Boulevard, in Davis. The arrests followed a month and
a half long investigation into the armed robbery,
where a victim was confronted by two suspects
who brandished a handgun and demanded the
victim’s property. The victim, who was not hurt,
complied and the suspects fled the area. Two
adults and one juvenile were arrested. The adults
were booked into the Yolo County jail on robbery
charges. The juvenile was also arrested on robbery charges and was booked into the Yolo
County Juvenile Hall.
2014 Annual Report

Sample Highlights from 2014
In May of 2014, the Davis Police Department began
to investigate allegations into the sexual abuse of a
17 year old female. During the course of the investigation, it was determined that the suspect, a 45
year old priest with a Catholic Church in Davis had
befriended the minor and had been having a sexual
relationship with the minor for some time. Officers
served search warrants at multiple locations and
subsequently arrested the suspect on charges of
statutory rape and oral copulation with a minor.
On September 24, 2014, Officers from the
Davis Police Department, the Yolo County
Narcotics Enforcement Team, the Davis Police Department S.A.F.E (Special Assignments
and Focused Enforcement) Team, and several
allied agencies, served search warrants on
five residences in the Royal Oak trailer park in
Davis. Officers recovered 168 marijuana
plants, 3 pounds of marijuana, and a concentrated cannabis lab. Also recovered in the
search were multiple firearms, ammunition, 2
assault rifles, and tools/parts used to manufacture assault weapons. One residence was
condemned as being uninhabitable, two children were placed into protective custody, and
5 adults were taken into custody. The search
warrants and subsequent arrests were the result of a 4 month investigation into narcotics
dealing in that neighborhood.
On November 21, 2014, Officers from the Special Assignments and Focused Enforcement (S.A.F.E.) team, along with Detectives from our Investigations Division, served
search warrants at a residence on L. Street in Davis, as well as a residence on Reddick
Road, in Dixon. Investigating Officers recovered methamphetamine and loaded firearms. The Officers arrested a Davis resident, and charged him as a felon in possession
of a firearm, possession of methamphetamine, armed in the commission of a felony,
and child endangerment. The subject was booked at the Yolo County Jail.
On December 17, 2014, Davis Police Officers responded to an area of Chiles Road, just
east of La Vida, for a report of a vehicle collision with injuries. Upon arrival, Officers made
contact with the victim, who was riding a motorcycle on Chiles Road, when a vehicle
crossed over the centerline and stuck him. The driver stopped and spoke to the motorcyclist, but then left the scene without exchanging information. The motorcyclist suffered serious injuries in the collision.
After a month of investigating and following up on tips received, Officers were able to obtain a warrant for the arrest of the driver of the vehicle. Officers arrested the Davis resident, and booked him in the Yolo County jail.

Community Commendations—2014
Here at the Davis Police Department,
we are pleased when employees receive words of commendation form
Community members. Here is a
sampling of those received in 2014
RE: Officer Talavera
“I would like to express my sincere appreciation
for the actions of Officer Talavera, who interviewed our daughter, after an assault by her exhusband. Officer Talavera was respectful, patent, and honest with our daughter. She was
able to process many of her feelings and fears,
right there in the Police Station, and left feeling
safe, empowered, and much better able to
move on with her life. We appreciate Officer
Talavera’s assistance he has provided our family, at a time when it was needed most.”
RE: Officers Mares and La Fond
“I have disabling PTSD, and recently experienced an intense episode of depression. I
called 911, and Officers Mares and La
Fond soon arrived at my apartment. Officer
Mares demeanor communicated intelligence and good training. He spoke to me
calmly, and with respect. Officer La Fond
arrived communicated uncanny empathy
for PTSD, and profound cultural competence for my Mormon faith. His demeanor
was calm and assertive, which made me
feel safe. Officer La Fond guided me
through chaotic emotions until I was calm. I
wish Officers Mares and La Fond peace,
safety, and good health in the New Year. “
2014 Annual Report
RE: Officer Holck
“Earlier this year, I was unable to locate
my car after parking and shopping in
downtown Davis. I called the Police Department, and they said they would send
someone right away. Within minutes, Officer Holck arrived. He was extremely
kind, and insisted I wait in the shade
while he searched for my car. Officer
Holck eventually located my car which
was parked several streets away. I am
very pleased with the service I received
from Officer Holck, and the Davis Police
Department.”
RE: Members of the Davis Police
Department
“With all the bad press lately surrounding Police Officers, I wanted you to
know how much I appreciate all that
you do. Putting your life on the line
every day and keeping citizens safe, is
no small task.
I am tired of all the negative reactions
to people who are doing their jobs.
Keep up the good work and let all the
criticism slide off your backs!”
RE: Detective Trn and Police Services
Specialist Chaney
“I wanted to send a special thank you to
Detective Trn and PSS Chaney for coming
to our facility to conduct Crime Prevention
training to our staff. We now have a Quality Improvement Team in place, who will be
following up on your tips and suggestions.
We appreciate your support!”

Community Commendations—2014
RE: Officer Dias and PSS Gojkovich
“I would like to take a moment to submit a
letter of appreciation for the assistance
provided by Officer Dias. While traveling
through the Central Valley on Amtrak, my
iPad went missing from my luggage, and I
instantly suspected it stolen because it’s
location was being reported remotely as
coming from Davis. After reporting the
property stolen to the Amtrak PD, Davis
Police Officer Dias contacted me within a
short period of time, and was able to physically recover my iPad from a parked vehicle, using its GPS location.
Officer Dias quickly understood my position and was more than willing to investigate the matter, securing my property, for
which I am very grateful.
I would also like to express my appreciation for PSS Gojkovich who interfaced with
me to return the IPad.”
RE: Officer Metcalf “ I want to thank the entire Department for
their assistance over the last few years, in
which I was involved in a very difficult situation. The entire Department has been
very kind and responsive. I would like to
send a special thank you to Officer
Metcalf for his exceptional patience, professionalism, as well as his amazing kindness towards both myself and my granddaughter, during an incident that occurred
early this year. Officer Metcalf assisted in
making an extremely difficult situation go
as smooth as possible.”
2014 Annual Report
RE: Officer Helton
“I needed help with a client who had become psychotic and needed to be hospitalized, so I called the Davis Police Department. Officer Helton returned my call,
and proceeded to get some information
on my client before contacting them. Officer Helton interacted with the client in a
sensitive, non-threatening manner, and
was able to persuade the client to go with
him to the hospital voluntarily. Officer
Helton was very supportive and helpful to
me during what was a very difficult experience. Without his skills, the situation
might have had a much worse outcome.”
RE: Police Services Specialist Sheri
Kolb
“I recently called to Police Department
to report a purse that I had lost. PSS
Kolb responded to my call, and quickly
located my purse, and returned it to
me. I am thankful for her quick response, and am relieved to have my
purse back!”
RE: Members of the Davis Police
Department
“I wanted to thank all of you at the
Davis Police Department for the
courteous, professional manner in
which I was treated after having my
car stolen. Your officers truly rock.
They were so friendly and helpful.
Words cannot express the appreciation I feel for all of your hard work. I
wanted to let all of you know how
wonderful you are.”

Department. Patrol Officers and Police Services
Specialists respond to everything from collisions,
noise complaints, and neighborhood disputes/
nuisances to burglaries, robberies and assaults.
The Division is led by Lieutenant Ton Phan. The
Patrol Division utilizes both 12 hour and 10 hour
shift schedules to maximize beat management
policing and varying shift workloads.

Picnic Day Enforcement Statistics—2014
The annual Picnic Day event is centered
around the UC Davis Open House and
includes a Saturday morning parade through
downtown Davis. There are generally
numerous parties at private residences and
fraternities/sororities occurring Friday evening
through early Sunday morning. In addition, the
areas in and around downtown, especially the
restaurants and bars, are particularly busy. The
mission of the Davis Police Department is to
facilitate the celebration activities while
maintaining public safety and order.
Officers from the California Highway Patrol; the Yolo County Sheriff's Department; the
Woodland, West Sacramento, and Winters Police Departments; University of California Police
Department; California Department of Fish and Wildlife; and the California Department of Alcohol
Beverage Control all work together to maintain order; enforcing laws and city ordinances.
Officers focus attention on downtown Davis and neighborhoods hosting large house-parties by
patrolling on foot, bike, and in patrol cars. The California Highway Patrol and an "Avoid the 8"
Team (an OTS grant funded, county-wide DUI enforcement team) conduct enforcement activities
directed toward those who chose to drive drunk. California Beverage Control Agents come to
town to enforce violations associated with alcohol consumption and the sales of alcohol.
While the record of our enforcement actions may provide a sense of the types and volume of
activity in which enforcement activity was taken, the police department’s overall perception of the
2014 event, is that there were fewer crimes of violence (reported and not reported) than during
the last several Picnic Day events. While there was a significant amount of alcohol-driven
disorder, the Davis downtown area seemed a safer place.
The following are the Picnic Day enforcement statistics where 42 physical arrests were
made:
 24 arrests for Public Intoxication

3 arrests for Disorderly Conduct

1 arrest for Furnishing Alcohol to a Minor

3 arrests for Drunk & Disorderly/Resisting Arrest


“AVOID THE 8” Office of Traffic Safety Grant
The Yolo County “AVOID THE 8” regional law enforcement program
was conducted on an overtime basis with teams from all participating
agencies working as a coordinated task force during operational
periods. Law enforcement officials organized and implemented all
planned DUI operations in areas with histories of high numbers of DUI
related collisions and or arrests. During the checkpoint operations,
officers distributed traffic safety educational materials to drivers
regarding the impact of drunk drivers.
In addition to the DUI efforts, media campaigns were conducted during
each of the AVOID Holiday weekends and NHTSA Mobilization
campaigns. Media efforts focused on the toll drunk drivers have on
families; causing loss of life or life changing injuries.

Traffic & Parking
The Traffic Unit consists of two
motorcycle officers and a traffic
sergeant. Motorcycles are often used
for traffic enforcement because they
allow officers easier access to traffic
related problems.
Traffic enforcement officers are
primarily responsible for enforcing the
California Vehicle Code, local traffic
ordinances, and investigating vehicle
collisions. The purpose of the traffic
unit is to create safer roadways for
motorist, cyclists and pedestrians. This is accomplished through enforcing traffic laws,
educating citizens and helping to identify roadway engineering issues.
The traffic officers respond to community complaints regarding traffic safety issues and provide
dedicated enforcement at high collision intersections.

Code Enforcement
It is the goal of the City and its citizens that all property owners
and tenants maintain their property’s appearance and value. Our
City Municipal Code has been established to help maintain a
standard in our community for all to enjoy. The observance of these codes by property owners and their tenants, in turn, motivates
other property owners to maintain their properties to these standards. The Code Enforcement Officer enforces the City of Davis
Municipal Code.
The Code Compliance Program is a citizen-based program that
inspects and investigates complaints from citizens of the City of
Davis. Upon receipt of a complaint, the Code Enforcement Officer
will conduct a site visit to investigate the reported violation. After
confirmation of the violation, the Code Enforcement Officer will
take necessary steps to gain compliance with City Codes.
In 2014, the Davis Police Department handled over 420 cases involving Code Compliance issues.
6 cases were for barking dog violations, 154 were for nuisance abatement, 46 were for visual
blight in the view of the public right of way, and 214 cases were for loud parties and music at residences and businesses.
These numbers do not include the countless telephone/email inquires that are followed up with
and handled without a case being opened.
Also during 2014, there were numerous homeless camps that were visited and abated by Code
Enforcement. The Department’s Code Enforcement Officer, along with Police Officers worked with
the Public Works Department in order to organize trash removal at these sites.
Code Enforcement worked with department VIPS (Volunteers in Police Services) to educate the
community with the correct placement and disposing of green waste in bicycle lanes. This became
an issue in Davis, as the green waste piles were causing a traffic hazard to bicyclists and forcing
them to ride into the vehicle lane of traffic in order to avoid the waste piles. Code Enforcement and
VIPS worked together to enforce the municipal code, aimed at ridding bicycle lanes of green waste
piles, which resulted in an increase in voluntary compliance.

K-9 Team Statistics for 2014
Hurricane Calls it a Career
Davis Police Department K-9 Hurricane “Cane”, retired on
March 13, 2014, due to lingering back issues, culminating a
career that spanned over seven years, and numerous
achievements. “Hurricane is an enthusiastic dog that loved
every aspect of being a police K-9. He was a consistent,
reliable partner, and a great ambassador for the K9 Unit and
the Department”, said his handler, Officer Hatfield. “Cain” was
always friendly and social when meeting members of the
community and fearless and tenacious when working. As of
his last day, K-9 Hurricane had logged over 185 General
Assists, 185 Drug Searches, 112 Drug finds, and 90
Surrenders. He also participated in several Police Canine
Trials, earning 1st place in several categories, and bringing
home various awards over the years. He also participated in
numerous public demonstrations, and actually became a Facebook celebrity in 2013, when he
was one of the most “reached” and “liked” members of the Foothills K9 Association.
Cane saw his fair share of action over the past seven years. Some of the calls that stand out
include one in which the suspect fled on foot after being pulled over for a traffic stop by a Patrol
Officer. After fleeing on foot, into the Davis Waste Removal yard, K-9 Hurricane found the suspect
hiding in a tree. The suspect eventually came down from the tree and was arrested on suspicion
of carrying a concealed weapon in a vehicle, of being previously convicted of a felony, possession
of an firearm, driving with a suspended license, and resisting a police officer. Without Hurricane’s
assistance, Officers would have had a hard time locating the suspect in the tree.
Another incident was one in which the DPD received a call regarding a man suspected of a
carjacking at a local fast food restaurant. Officers responded, and soon spotted the stolen car,
and began pursuit. The suspect drove into the Yolo Bypass and south on Levee Road. Due to
poor road conditions, the Officer slowed down the pursuit and unfortunately lost sight of the
suspect. The stolen vehicle was eventually located but the suspect was missing. Several outside
agencies were called in to assist in the search of the suspect, and after several hours, he was
located hiding in a cornfield. After being asked to surrender, and refusing, K-9 Hurricane was sent
in to apprehend him, and the suspect was arrested.

K-9 Team Statistics for 2014
Meet our New K-9, Dexter
Dexter officially began his patrol training in January of
2014. Dexter is a German Shepherd/Belgian Malinois
mix born in May of 2012 in Poland. We call him a Shepinois. He was purchased from the Vohne Liche Kennel in
southern CA. Prior to training with the Davis Police Department, Dexter had no official training. He is now
trained for all patrol dog functions, including catching
violent or dangerous people running, hiding, or fighting
with police, as well as narcotics detection. He is trained
to locate and passively alert on the odor of cocaine,
methamphetamines, and heroin. Dexter assisted with 41
apprehensions of violent and dangerous subjects in
2014.

Officers conducted a narcotics search along with the West Sacramento SIU team, in which the
teams were searching a garage. The garage was searched by several officers but nothing was
found. Officers had Dexter search the garage again and he continued to alert in the same spot. Officers checked an industrial fridge in a corner of the garage. Hidden in the motor area on top of the
fridge, Officers located ¾ of a pound of crystal methamphetamines, which would not have been
found without Dexter’s alert.

Officers responded to a report of a subject brandishing a handgun at a group of UCD students at the
corner of Russell Boulevard and Miller Lane, in Davis. The subject was apprehended by Officers, but
was not in possession of the handgun. Dexter did an evidence search of the front yards from where
the suspect was detained, to where the crime occurred. In the thick ivy of a yard close to Russell
Boulevard, Dexter alerted on a loaded revolver which was later identified by the victim’s as the gun
brandished by the suspect.

Special Weapons & Tactics
The Special Weapons and Tactics Team
(SWAT) is a multi-jurisdictional team comprised
of Davis and West Sacramento police officers.
The team is a part-time team, which means that
their membership on the team is a collateral
assignment; in addition to their primary duties
patrol, investigations, or other specialized
assignments. Currently, the Davis Police
Department has nine team members assigned
to the team and one lieutenant who is one of the
two tactical commanders. West Sacramento has
devoted eight officers, and the other tactical
commander to the team. Being a member of the
team requires hours of training to stay proficient
in the tactical environment. To maintain these
perishable skills the team trains twenty hours a
month, covering numerous disciplines, including
building searches, hostage rescue, high risk
warrant services, dignitary protection, and
working collaboratively with other special
disciplines such as Explosive Ordinance
Disposal (EOD) and Hostage Negotiations
(HNT).
During 2014, the SWAT team, which is one half
of ALERT (Area Law Enforcement Response
Team) for Yolo County, was activated 5 times.
Of those 5 deployments, 4 were high risk
search/arrest warrants and one involved a
barricaded subject inside a residence. One of
those deployments resulted in the arrest of 6
suspects and the seizure of 8 firearms, three of
which were high-powered rifles.
During 2014, the team participating in over 200
hours of training which included active shooter
scenarios, building entry and clearing
techniques, rappelling, hostage rescue, search
warrant executions, and working with K9 teams.


Conduct undercover, special investigative, or special enforcement operations.

Gather information relating to criminal behavior by analyzing reported crimes, managing
informant assets, gathering feedback from community members, and interviewing offenders.

Analyze information and turn it into usable intelligence.

Identify either loose knit or organized criminal networks that may be operating in our jurisdiction.

Design and implement solutions or effective management and investigative plans aimed at
reducing or controlling criminal behavior.
The Unit is managed by Lieutenant Doroshov, and includes one Sergeant, and three
Detectives, one Crime Analyst, and a Police Services Specialist. Lieutenant Doroshov is responsible for assuring the accomplishment of the SAFE Team goals through directing, developing, and evaluating personnel assigned to the team, and by taking the lead on the Intelligence Lead Policing program for the Department.

Youth—Part of Our Strategic Plan
Strategic Plan Goal Statement - The Davis Police Department is dedicated to
promoting and ensuring the safety, education, and welfare of all young people throughout
the city. We are committed to encouraging young people to avoid drugs and gangs, stay
in school, and contribute positively to society.
We believe if we reach out to our youth at an early age, they can develop strong, positive
attitudes and trust towards police officers, as well as respect for the law during their journey
through life toward the goal of maturity and good citizenship. The Davis Police Department
continues to seek opportunities to interact with our youthful community members through nonenforcement activities. We do this through outreach programs that educate and foster positive
relationships between our youth and our officers. We evaluate our processes periodically to
ensure our goals and objectives in this area meet the needs of the community.
It is our firmest belief that every young person has a right to the opportunity to succeed. Our
youth are our best investment in the future. We look forward to the challenges ahead, the
partnership with the community, and the community’s support for our efforts in providing
opportunities and building relationships.

Youth Intervention Services
Youth Intervention Services for 2014
The juvenile diversion program “diverts” first time juvenile offenders from
court and allows their case to be handled informally through the Davis
Police Department. Juveniles enter into a 6 month diversion contract with
the department’s Youth Intervention Specialist and are required to do
community service hours at a local non-profit, write an essay relative to
their offense, maintain a minimum GPA of 2.0, generate no unexcused
absences at school, submit to drug screening, and meet with the Youth
Intervention Specialist once a month. f needed, referrals are made to
substance abuse programs, counseling services, anger management, etc.
In addition to meeting with juveniles on diversion, the Youth Intervention Specialist fields calls and
meets with parents who are struggling with adolescent teen issues such as drug/alcohol use, negative
behaviors in the home, parenting issues, and other family crises.
In 2014, there were 98 juvenile arrests. The department’s Youth Intervention Specialist held 222 meetings with juveniles and their families. This translates to approximately 18 meetings per month with juveniles who are currently on diversion.
Truancy
A total of five truancy outreach visits were held at Davis Senior High in 2014, and 65 students were met
with regarding their truancy. After meeting with the initial 65 students, 23 students were then forwarded
to Yolo County District Attorney for a Truancy Mediation Hearing due to continued truancy. Despite outreach resources, 14 of the 23 students were ultimately referred to truancy court. Truancy outreach days
were also held at King High and at the junior high school level. These truancy cases were mediated and
handled informally or through other juvenile court proceedings.
School and Community
Throughout 2014, the Youth Intervention Specialist facilitated ten Child Abuse Mandated Reporter training sessions for City of Davis employees and volunteers.
In August 2014, the DPD held its 10th annual “Pack the Patrol Car” fundraiser, which resulted in over
200 backpacks filled with school supplies being delivered to needy students at schools in Davis.
In October 2014, the Youth Intervention Specialist, organized and presented a community forum
presentation entitled, “Be Smart, Don’t Start,” in response to the increase in heroin related cases investigated by Davis PD. Several officers and detectives from Davis PD spoke to the community to familiarize them with the heroin epidemic as well as other drugs and illegal activity being seen in Davis.
In December 2014, along with School Resource Officer Briesenick, the Youth Intervention Specialist
presented an alcohol/drug awareness class to Parents of the organization, “Parent Project”. Parents
were provided information on current drug trends and suggestions on how to keep their children drug
free.

School Resource
Officer Keirith
Briesenick splits her
time amongst 4 high
school campuses in
Davis — Davis Senior
High School, Da Vinci
Charter Academy, King
High School and Davis
School for Independent
Study (DSIS). Officer
Briesenick also assists
in criminal investigations at the 3 junior high
schools in Davis – Holmes, Emerson and Harper
Junior High Schools. She has also participated in
Red Ribbon week at several elementary schools
in Davis, and has provided assistance in truancy
and safety to elementary schools as needed.
At the beginning of the 2014-2015 school year,
seeing the need for better communication
between school crisis counseling staff and the
Davis Police Department, SRO Briesenick and
DJUSD Crisis staff set up a regular bimonthly
meetings. This “Crisis Debrief” covers students
in crisis or students suffering from mental health
conditions that could lead to law enforcement
action. SRO Briesenick has also participated in
threat assessments outlined by the crisis team
that allow law enforcement to give feedback on
incidents involving students in crisis or students
that may engage in threatening behavior.
Some of the other activities SRO Briesenick has
been involved in this year include:

In September 2014, SRO Briesenick
participated in the Sexual Assault
Awareness Campaign (SAAC). This
campaign is designed to bring sexual
assault awareness and education to high
school students and their parents. With
partner Empower Yolo, the SAAC has
already provided high school seniors with a
presentation educating them about the
sexual assaults. Empower Yolo is also
running a course for junior high students at
Emerson Junior High. An upcoming PSA
video contest and poster contest will launch
at all high school sites in March of 2015.

In October 2014, SRO Briesenick, along with
other department staff, participated in a
community forum on drug and alcohol use, in
an effort to address the increasing heroin
use at the high school level, and to keep
parents informed.

In 2014, SRO Briesenick also attended the
Davis Joint Unified School District monthly
Climate and Safety meetings at the District
office. At these meetings, SRO Briesenick
provided school administrators with
education and awareness on issues
involving domestic violence, sexual assault,
and gangs.
SRO Briesenick also assists the department’s
Youth Intervention Specialist with truancy issues,
advises on future safety planning for the school
district, and coaches the Davis High School girls
varsity softball team.

R.A.D. (Rape Aggression Defense)
The Rape Aggression Defense System (RAD) is a program of
realistic self-defense tactics and techniques. The RAD program is a
comprehensive course for women that begins with awareness,
prevention, risk reduction, and avoidance, while progressing on to
the basics of hands-on defense training.
During 2014 we provided one five-week RAD course for women.
Davis Police Department RAD courses are taught by our nationally
certified RAD Instructors: Janell
Bestpitch, Kimberly Walker, and
Eddie Ellsworth. For more information about upcoming classes,
email: [email protected].
radKIDS
The radKIDS Program provides children with hope, options, and practical skills to RECOGNIZE,
AVOID, and, if necessary, ESCAPE violence and abuse. Certified Davis PD instructors, Officer
Penrose and Officer Ellsworth taught one summer session this past year, which included four
classes with approximately 25 kids ages 5—12 years in each.

Crime Prevention
The Davis Police Department has an
active Crime Prevention Unit, which
oversees Neighborhood Watch, Crime
Free Multi-Housing, Crime Prevention
Through Environmental Design
(CPTED) assessments, and vacation
house checks. The primary goal of the
Crime Prevention Unit is to use the
community as a force multiplier in
crime reduction.
Davis PD’s Neighborhood Watch
program is a crime reduction program
where citizens work together with law
enforcement to combat and prevent
crime in their neighborhoods.
Currently, Davis PD works with 155
Neighborhood Watch groups. These groups exist in all parts of Davis, with a typical group size
consisting of 17 homes.
The Davis Crime Free Multi-Housing Program is designed to help residents, owners, and managers
associated with rental properties keep narcotics and other illegal activity out of their respective
communities. Davis PD provides tools and annual training to all multi-housing stakeholders in an effort
to assist them in crime issues that are unique to shared properties. To date, Davis PD has 41 Crime
Free Multi-Housing participants.
Throughout 2014, the Crime Prevention Unit participated in Celebrate Davis, National Night Out, Davis
Neighbor’s Night Out, Adopt-A-Park, Fall Patrol and various safety presentations.
In addition to the activities listed above, Police Services Specialist Janet Chaney, who is currently
assigned to the Crime Prevention Unit, attended CPTED training. During the course of 2014, PSS
Chaney conducted assessments of personal residences, apartments, and commercial properties.
In July 2014, PSS Chaney was awarded the Excellence and Innovation in Policing Ribbon for her
investigative work as part of the Special Assignments and Focused Enforcement (SAFE) Team. Her
continuous efforts in, and commitment to, educating the community regarding crime trends and crime
prevention have raised community awareness, and helped make Davis a safe place to live!

Crime Prevention
The Davis Police Department encourages all members of the community to join proactively in the
fight against crime. The first step community members can take in the crime prevention effort is
to incorporate basic crime prevention techniques into their daily habits. A second and equally important step is to report all criminal and suspicious activity in a timely manner. Aware and involved community members exponentially increase the Police Department’s “eyes” and “ears”
throughout the city. These added resources can have a significant impact on the reduction of
crime and the apprehension of criminals.
TIPS AND REMINDERS:
Keep all doors, windows, sliders, gates, garages, etc. closed and locked when not in use.
 Increase outdoor lighting and light up vulnerable areas
 Motion sensors lights can also serve as an alert system
 All doors to the outside should have a solid core and deadbolt locks
 Windows/Sliders must have strong and working locks
 Also consider “window stops” or dowels/rods in the tracks.
 Prune and maintain overgrown bushes and trees to eliminate potential hiding places
 Display visible alarm and Neighborhood Watch signage and stickers
 Other deterrents that can be used: Alarms, Camera Systems, Dogs
 Report all suspicious activity as soon as it is witnessed. Timely reporting greatly increase
the chances that officers can respond, make contact, and investigate an incident.
 Go with your gut—if it doesn’t look or feel right, the it probably isn’t. Call it in!
GETTING INVOLVED AND STAYING ACTIVE:
 Take steps to engage in the community and your neighborhood.
 Join a Neighborhood Watch Program.
 Call our Crime Prevention Specialist, Janet Chaney, at 530-747-5472 for more information.
 A Neighborhood Watch group facilitates interaction and opens up communication within a
neighborhood and with the police department.
 It creates an environment in which neighbors agree to look out for each other.
 It informs criminals through signs and stickers that your neighborhood is active, aware, and
reports all suspicious activity directly to the police department.

Volunteers in Police Services and Cadet Program
Volunteers in Police Services Program
The Volunteers in Police Services (VIPS) Program provides
a valuable resource to our law enforcement officers and
support personnel, enabling them to focus on policing and
enforcement responsibilities. The volunteers are a group of
adults who pool their talents, knowledge, and abilities; donating their time to help the Police Department provide a
higher level of service to the citizens in our community.
The Davis Police Department is fortunate to have over 60
VIPS working with us who fill critical gaps in program support and enhance services, enabling law enforcement personnel to respond more effectively to enforcement and policing priorities. In turn, our volunteers contribute in a meaningful way to the safety of their community.
Cadet Program
The principal goal of the cadet program is to train youth on the various aspects of police work
while they work within and for their community. The Cadets have many responsibilities and
duties that support the City of Davis Police Department. A Police Cadet will often be called
upon to assist in various divisions within the organization. The cadets are trained in areas
such as: radio codes, First Aid & CPR, physical training, penal codes and vehicle code laws,
building searches, felony car stops, Narcotics, K-9, suspect descriptions, officer safety, defensive tactics, booking evidence, and most importantly, they are exposed to the infamous
“paperwork” the police officers have to do. They attend meetings once a month; on the third
Thursday of each month. Police Cadets are exposed to law enforcement by riding along with
Police Officers during their regular shifts and experiencing the day-to-day operations.
Davis Downtown Host Program
The Davis Police Department launched the Davis Downtown Host program in November,
2013, which has been very successful to date. Currently a team of 14 hosts patrol the Downtown Core on foot acting as a resource for downtown businesses, customers, and visitors, as
well as a crime deterrent.
For more information on our Volunteer Program, or how you can become a Volunteer, please
contact our Volunteer Coordinator, Kellie Vitaich at 530-747-5419.
