On August 16, 2026, Piedmont Police officers began investigating multiple auto burglaries that occurred during the early morning hours. Preliminary information indicated that a similar suspect vehicle may have been associated with several of the incidents.

At approximately 5:56 a.m., Sgt. Foster conducted a traffic stop on a similar vehicle in the area where the burglaries had occurred. During the stop, Sgt. Foster conducted a probable cause search of the vehicle and located two fi****ms concealed inside the engine compartment.

The driver, a convicted felon prohibited from possessing fi****ms, was arrested and booked at Santa Rita Jail on multiple felony charges.

This arrest highlights the importance of effective preliminary investigations and proactive police work.

The Piedmont Police Department remains committed to protecting our community.

The auto burglary investigations remain ongoing.

We made some changes to traffic circulation in the Civic Center over the summer.

As we prepare for the start of school on Monday, Chief Shavies asks everyone traveling through the area to familiarize yourself with the changes, review routes, and allow extra travel time next week as families adjust to the transition.
