POLICE SEEK INFORMATION ABOUT A ROBBERY

cslogo A 65-year-old woman pulls up to an ATM machine at an eastside bank and is robbed at gunpoint by an unknown man,

Crime Stoppers “Crime of the Week.”

On Thursday, January 26th, 2012, about 10:15 P.M., the elderly victim pulled into a eppd_thumb2_thumb_thumb_thumb_thumb_[2]handicap parking space at the Bank of America, 1330 N. Lee Trevino, and got out of her vehicle to use the ATM near Rojas Street. While she withdrew money, a man came up behind her demanding that she give him her money. When she turned, she saw that the man held a black handgun in his right hand. She gave him the money she had just withdrawn. He tried to get more money from the ATM but ended up jamming it so it wouldn’t work.

The suspect fled on foot around the corner of the building, and then a red pickup drove slowly through the parking lot. It is not known if the suspect got into that truck, or if perhaps the truck’s driver could have seen the suspect. The suspect is described as an Hispanic man between the ages of 16 and 18, short height, thin build, wearing a black hoodie and dark pants.

EL PASO, TEXAS- On June 13th 2011 Sheriff Richard Wiles and the County Tax Assessor Collector signed a memorandum of understanding where the sheriff recognized the Enforcement Division of the County Tax Office as a joint Auto Theft Unit for the County of El Paso which consists of peace officers and employees of the El Paso County Sheriff’s Crimes Against Property Unit and the Tax Office Enforcement Division.

Through our 68-A inspections we have noticed that approximately 85 % of the stolen vehicles recovered have been purchased from Mexico.

Since June 13, 2011, when the Enforcement Division of the County Tax Office officially started conducting 68-A as part of the Sheriff Auto Theft Unit, through February 15, 2012 the Enforcement Division has conducted 449 inspections which has brought in an additional revenue of $17,960.00 dollars to the County’s General Fund.

“We Serve With Pride”

EL PASO, TEXAS- The El Paso County Sheriff’s Office and BAIR Analytics Inc., recently partnered to provide a new way for the public to stay informed about crime in El Paso County. The Sheriff’s Office now has an online crime map called RAIDS Online that analyzes crime data for El Paso County citizens to view on a map and grid with all of the crimes in their area. Citizens are able to sign up for neighborhood watch reports that automatically email a breakdown of recent crime activity, and submit an anonymous tip about a crime directly to their law enforcement agency. RAIDS Online automatically syncs with the El Paso County Sheriff’s Office’s records system to keep crime information updated online and in the mobile application. The data is displayed with 8 fields of limited offense information to protect victim’s privacy. It’s very user friendly and is a valuable tool for law enforcement to communicate crime activity to their citizens.

The mobile device app makes all of this information accessible anywhere.  The RAIDS Online Mobile app is available for FREE on the App Store.

DEPUTY BADGE WHTEL PASO, TEXAS- On 02-13-2012 at approximately 6:30 p.m., El Paso County Sheriff’s Deputies were dispatched to the 14600 block of Santiesteban, El Paso County Texas, in reference to a motor vehicle accident involving a pedestrian. Upon arriving, deputies noticed a white Honda Civic stopped just off the roadway, and a female/pedestrian lying on the roadway. Life ambulance and first responders arrived shortly thereafter and immediately transported the pedestrian/victim the hospital for possible head injuries. Sheriff’s Office Special Traffic Investigators were summoned to the scene. Their investigation revealed that the driver of the white Honda Civic, a 21 year old male, was traveling west bound  at the 14600 block of Santiesteban, approaching the intersecting street Santicum, where the victim was attempting to cross the roadway and was struck by the vehicle. At this time, speed and alcohol are not factors and no charges are pending at this time.  The victim, a 16 year old female, did not suffer any life threatening injuries.
