“Here at Salinas PD we would like to dispel a big rumor we hear going around at times (yes sometimes even with YouTube lawyers). The good ol’ “home base” rumor. Well you see, if you commit a flagrant violation of the law and then make it home the tag rule of “home base” does NOT come into affect.
In our game of tag there are very few rules:
1. it last ffffoooeeeevvveerrr, like the Officer from the sandlot would say.
2. No home base.
3. When you’re tagged you go to jail and do not pass go.
We talk about this rumor because two unsuspecting gang members in the City of Soledad learned this the hard way, when VSTF showed up at their “home base.”
With the help of Soledad PD and HSI they served a search warrant in the 1600 block of Palm Ave. Aaron Ramirez (18) and Andrew Leon (18) were both arrested in possession of 3 unregistered polymer 80 handguns and 1 oz of cocaine. Both were taken to jail and schooled up on the “home base” rumors.
VSTF will continue to follow the criminals even if that means working with our great partners and going to a different city!!!”
