Tanforan Mall Crime Happenings

Recent Crimes Reported At Tanforan Shopping Mall

South San Francisco, CA June 2, 2013

Many of our residents frequent the Shops at Tanforan and in the effort to keep folks informed with recent happenings we are sharing information from the San Mateo Daily Journal Newspaper. Please be sure to be mindful when in public, watch your surroundings and report anything suspicious to the police by calling 911.

There have also been a seemingly large amount of ‘smash & grab’ auto break ins and it is a good reminder to keep items out of your car and into your trunk. Kris Peradotto checked in with Everything South City today to say he saw two vehicles in the Towne Center with smashed windows during daylight hours.

A woman was approached by a man with a gun in the San Bruno Target parking lot Thursday night before giving him her purse, as demanded, according to police.

At about 6:20 p.m., San Bruno police responded to an armed robbery call at 1150 El Camino Real.
