Muti-agency effort assists Alameda County Sheriff’s Office
By Hercules Police Department
Hercules Police Department officers recently assisted the Alameda County Sheriff’s Office with the arrest of two wanted suspects.
Upon locating the suspects in a vehicle at the Dylan Apartment Complex on John Muir Parkway, officers observed that both suspects were asleep and that one had a pistol resting on his lap.
Recognizing the potential for a dangerous and rapidly evolving situation, officers developed and implemented a tactical plan centered on time, distance, communication, and de-escalation. Through patience, coordination and sound police tactics, the situation was resolved safely, and both suspects were taken into custody without further incident.
This operation was a strong example of the importance of interagency cooperation and teamwork. We extend our sincere appreciation to our allied agency partners who assisted:
- Vallejo Police Department — K-9
- Contra Costa County Sheriff’s Office
- San Pablo Police Department — SWAT
- Pinole Police Department
- Pittsburg Police Department
The hard work, professionalism, and dedication of frontline law enforcement officers can never be overstated. Kudos to every officer and deputy who worked together to bring this incident to a safe resolution.

What were they wanted for?
Exactly what I want to know. Why would you write something like this and leave everybody hanging us what they were wanted for or rested for?

Exactly what I wanted to know. Why would you write an article this short? And yes kudos to cops. But tell us what the hell the guys were wanted for. That’s ridiculous that you didn’t
