E-bike stolen from Sonoma Whole Foods

Grand Theft E-Bike

Sonoma Police responded to a reported theft of a $1,500 e-bike from the Sonoma Whole Food at 200 block of Napa Street at 5:30 on Feb. 12, according to Sgt. Scott McKinnon.

The owner of the white Espin e-bike went into Whole Foods at approximately 4:50 p.m., left the store 40 minutes later and discovered his bicycle was missing. Police are reviewing video footage from the store in their investigation, McKinnon said.

No suspects have been identified as of Monday.

Drug possession and paraphernalia

Sonoma police patrolling Highway 12 noted a Honda Civic parked without a license plate at the Boyes Hot Springs Post Office at 3:48 a.m. on Feb. 16, McKinnon said. A man was sleeping inside.

Deputies spotted an open container of alcohol inside the vehicle and a piece of tin foil that caused them to suspect methamphetamine use, McKinnon said.

The suspect woke up and exited the vehicle, then threw something back inside the cabin of the car, McKinnon said. Deputies conducted a pat down search of the suspect and found a glass pipe commonly used for methamphetamine.

Inside the vehicle, deputies also located a small plastic bag containing a white crystalline substance consistent with methamphetamine, McKinnon said.

The suspect was placed under arrest for misdemeanor possession of methamphetamine and possession of drug paraphernalia.
