Captain Paul Yep s Message

1 Central Station Newsletter San Francisco Police Depar t ment Inside this issue: Captain s Message 1 Weekly Crime Update 2-12 Featured Officer of the Month Press Releases/Events/ Info 13 Career Opportunities 25 Resource Information 26 14-24 Captain Paul Yep s Message Wednesday, August 22, 2018 I recently received an email from a citizen about his interaction with Officers from Central Station and I would like to share it with our community: Captain Yep - At 3:11 a.m. this morning I called -911 for a woman screaming in the 400 block of Union Street. She was screaming at the top of her lungs, and her screams sounded like someone in pain. When I phoned from my apartment, I couldn't see her, only hear her. I thought she was being beaten up, but when I went downstairs to wait for the officers, the woman was alone. It seemed the "beating" I heard was only the woman herself, beating on car hoods. The officer I spoke with downstairs on Union Street is Officer Fitzpatrick. I told her I would write you with my name, and identify myself as the person who phoned in; hence this email. Your officers did as good a job as humanly possibly in very difficult circumstances. There were four officers in all, two policewomen and two policemen. No harsh words were spoken. No threats were made (except from the screaming woman to the police). They asked her many times if she felt that she wanted to hurt herself or anyone else. Fire and Rescue also came. She was gently placed on a gurney and taken to hospital. She was an African American woman about 35 years old. She appeared to be about 5'7" and was strong-- not frail-- in appearance. When I arrived, the officers were holding her on the ground and speaking to her. She was screaming at the officers, some of it obscene, some of it racial, some of it nonsensical. She said she had been homeless for 10 years. I didn't recognize her from the neighborhood or from our dinners. I was told later by the police that she was probably on meth. Now she is gone. Poor soul! Captain Paul Yep Commanding Officer Central Station Next Community Meeting: Thurs.
