SAN LUIS OBISPO, CA — “On 2/14/25 at around 10:45 pm, officers were dispatched to 43 Higuera for a welfare check of a man lying on the sidewalk. When officers arrived, they found a very intoxicated male on the ground bleeding from a cut on his head. While waiting for EMS to arrive, the officers located a Louis Vuitton bag next to the male that contained a wallet and ID, almost $8000 in cash and a plastic bag of white powder, approximately 35.5 grams in weight and several cell phones.
