Please see this important information shared from Commissioner Sorensen's office 6/22/2020: 

"As an FYI to our neighbors, we are experiencing a spike in COVID positive numbers in our zip code this month. From mid-March to May 30th, we had 41 positive cases. As of yesterday, we are up to 299—a six fold increase in less than a month." 

"Another note—we’ve been asked how you can report businesses that are non-compliant with CDC guidelines and the Governor’s orders. Our Code Compliance Department is handling these inquiries, and should call the City’s 24-Hour Service Hotline *at the time you see the noncompliance happening* at 954-828-8000, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week."

   On 3/27/20 in the early morning hours, ROC detectives were conducting surveillance in Rio Vista (73 zone) in reference to a rash of vehicle burglaries that occurred over the last two days.  ROC detectives observed two males walk eastbound into the neighborhood from US-1 at a time when most people are home due to the recent quarantine and State of Emergency.  The males were wearing long pants, hoodies and gloves even though the weather was warm.  The males began acting suspicious walking into driveways, walking up to vehicles and concealing themselves in the shadows.  ROC detectives maintained visual of the suspects while they continued to conduct themselves in a manor consist with burglary activity.
     At one point while conducting surveillance, one of the suspects attempted to burglarize a police vehicle with a detective inside of it. At that point detectives coordinated with the Papa Unit, K-9 and patrol.  The Papa unit then observed the suspects make entry into a vehicle in the 1700 block of SE 7th St. The suspect attempted to gain entry into several other vehicles. A perimeter was then established by patrol while K-9 and detectives made contact with the suspects who then attempted to flee and hide from police. After a short foot pursuit one was detained and the other was apprehended hiding in a backyard on a dock.
Both suspects were charged accordingly and transported to JAC.
