***ATTENTION RIVERPOINTE RESIDENTS***
Good Evening Riverpointe Residents.
For those who are unfamiliar with me, my name is Sgt. German. I am the operations supervisor for Tuolumne Security Service (TSS)
At 12:15 AM on the morning of August 4th, 2022, a group of 4 juveniles were observed by the security camera in the community pool area. These subjects had thrown the pool furniture and umbrellas into the pool and then exited the pool area via the park side gate.
Our patrol officer was conducting rounds in the Riverpointe community during this time and arrived at the main park/pool area at approximately 12:19 AM, 4 minutes after the act had taken place. The officer observed the individuals in the park area as he arrived.
As the officer began to conduct his patrol of the pool area via the gate on Rivercrest Drive, the subjects began to leave the park area. Our officer immediately moved to make contact with the subjects and advise them that both areas were closed as of 9:00PM. While the officer had not seen what had happened 4 minutes prior to his arrival he was able to make an immediate visual identification of 2 of the male subjects that were observed by the security camera.
In working with HOA board personnel, TSS was able to confirm the identity of the female subject and a tentative identification was made on the 3rd male subject. Due to the fact that all the subjects are minors, TSS will not post names/photos of them on social media. All that we can confirm is that 2 of the subjects are residents of the Riverpointe community.
An incident report has been filed by our patrol officer and TSS is looking into the legality of criminal trespass warnings being issued for the common areas such as the parks and pool area.
I hope this answers any questions as to the whereabouts of security personnel during this incident.
