According to YCPD, while the officer was patrolling the area, he saw three subjects standing near a community mailbox. The officer decided to go and investigate what was happening.
The officer realized that none of the three subjects lived in the area and had been traveling from the Fresno area, says YCPD.
YCPD says that one of the subjects was on Post-Relase Community Supervision and all of them were associated with a vehicle that was close by. The officer per PRCS searched the vehicle and found almost 200 pieces of stolen mail which all belonged to the residents of the Regency Park area.

Mail Theft
As of 9:30 p.m., the investigation remains active, and additional charges are pending.

‘We just want to know that she's safe' — Mother of missing West Jordan teen speaks out
WEST JORDAN, Utah (ABC4) — The mother of the has spoken out about her worries about her daughter's disappearance. Sophia Rojas, 15, was last seen on June 3, and she has had no contact with her friends or family since, according to West Jordan police. She was last seen wearing a grey suit and pants. Police believe that she may be with an adult, and she may be lying about her age. PREVIOUS COVERAGE: Family, police seeking information on missing 15-year-old girl from West Jordan Her mother, Porscha Chavez, spoke to about her daughter's disappearance. 'She took off in the middle of the night, and I haven't heard from her or seen her since,' she said. Chavez told that Sophia left a note, but that the first sentence of the note didn't sound like her. The note said, 'Don't jump into getting the police involved.' The rest of the note said that she had a place to stay, not to worry about her, and not to be mad, that she would be back eventually. Chavez believes that she is with an adult because she left in the middle of the night on a school night and none of her usual circle of friends have heard from her. Sophia also has a history of talking to adults online and lying about her age, Chavez said. Chavez took Sophia's phone away in February for that reason. 'I do feel like she's possibly been groomed. I think that she feels like it's not gonna happen to her, and that she'll be okay, and she has the teenager mindset of nothing's gonna happen to her and she knows everything and she's fine,' she said. Chavez told that she is able to see that Sophia has a different phone signed into her Google account, and Chavez does not know where that phone came from. She is able to see that it is logged in, but she cannot see its location.

'My concerns are that she's with an adult, who may be feeding things to her, and possibly, now that this is getting awareness and stuff, that they may not let her go if she wants to go home,' Chavez said. She also told that she feels like Sophia's case is not getting the attention it deserves because her daughter is not white. Chavez shared what she wants Sophia to hear from her. 'Come home,' she said. 'We just want to know that she's safe, and we want her back home safely.' West Jordan Police are asking that anyone with information about Sophia Rojas contact 801-256-2000 and reference case WJ25-27102.

San Joaquin County Sheriff's launch first-ever dive team for search and rescue, recovery missions
( — After two years of planning and preparation, the San Joaquin County Sheriff's Office has launched its first-ever dive team. This highly trained unit will serve a critical role in the region's emergency response efforts, from search and rescue to vehicle recoveries for environmental hazard mitigation. The Sheriff's office credits the San Joaquin County Board of Supervisors for supporting the creation of the team, which officials say will result in faster response times across the region's miles of waterways. The dive team is made up of ten deputies who underwent 80 hours of intensive training with Dive Rescue International and other hands-on classes. Charges filed against former Cal Fire employee in child pornography case Heather Brent, public information officer with the San Joaquin County Sheriff's Office, said that their goal is to have the best team, with the best boat patrol unit, and the best technologies, including SARbots- an underwater search and recovery robot designed for dangerous and difficult operations. 'It's 10 of our top deputies who tried out for the team, who are well-beyond capable of being part of this,' Brent said. Brent stressed the importance of having the dive team in place for a quicker, more coordinated response, rather than having to wait for assistance from other agencies. 'Five calls since February of either vehicles that crashed into the water, or potential drownings,' Brent said. 'Three of those unfortunately turned into recovery missions for our dive team, but our dive team was able to jump in and assist.' Michaels Distributing Center in San Joaquin County set to close, affecting over 200 jobs Lieutenant Leo Conn with the SJ County Sheriff's Office says the team is currently used for removing vehicles, emergency responses, search and rescue missions, and recovery operations, as well as evidence collection in criminal investigations. Conn said that saving lives is a top priority. 'The ultimate goal is preservation of life out here for the dive team, secondary is the recovery, to bring somebody home to their family for the closure,' Conn said. Sheriffs said the dive team is also able to assist surrounding agencies when mutual aid is requested, enhancing emergency response across the region. With training, technology, and teamwork at the forefront, the San Joaquin County Dive Team is ready to go beneath the surface where, in emergencies, every second counts.

The victim was identified as a 30-year-old Huynh Huu Duc Nguyen, from Elk Grove. According to the Sacramento Police Department, on June 1, officers received a report of domestic violence in the 7300 block of Farm Dale Way. The suspect was identified as Daniel Cunningham, 33, of Sacramento, who left before officers arrived at the scene. At around 10:15 a.m. on June 7, SPD stated that officers were called back to the residence for a request for a civil standby. The victim from June 1, who police said was assaulted by Cunningham, called and requested assistance to gather her stuff from the home. Suspect named in a police pursuit that was linked to a domestic violence incident 'This suspect had a fresh domestic violence want for his arrest,' said an SPD Officer Anthony Gamble. 'He was also a parolee at large, and so our officers had an obligation to bring this person to justice.' The vehicle traveled westbound on Florin Road and ultimately crashed into seven vehicles at the intersection of Florin Road and Greenhaven Drive in South Sacramento, SPD said. Nguyen was in one of the vehicles that was struck by Cunningham was pronounced dead at the scene by fire personnel. SPD stated that Cunningham fled from the vehicle on foot but was arrested by officers and a K9. He was then taken to a local hospital for medical treatment and has been cleared for incarceration. Cunningham has been booked into the Sacramento County Main Jail on charges related to parole violation, domestic violence, and felony pursuit charges, according to SPD. SPD then reached out to CHP and requested its Major Accident Investigation Team to conduct a collision investigation to determine if there would be more charges added relating to the crash.
