On Tuesday evening, May 26, 2026, our Officers worked another successful Theft Supersession detail in the Crossroads Shopping Center off Monument Blvd. and Buskirk Avenue. While working directly with Loss Prevention for the major retailers throughout the shopping center, a number of individuals were arrested, and several other thefts were thwarted. As a result of their proactive work, the following people were arrested for numerous theft and narcotics related charges:
– Lloyd Canamore (18), Oakland
– 17-year-old juvenile, Oakland
– Annemarie Melena (30), Concord
– Joshua Daniel Almond (43), Concord
According to localcrimenews.com, Melena had previously been arrested in 2018 by Woodland CHP for DUI alcohol/drugs.
According to the Contra Costa County Sheriff’s Office, as of May 27th at 7:36 PM, Almond was out of custody on his own recognizance.
As the summer begins to kick into high gear, plan to see our Officers working a few more of these details in the coming weeks!
