A UCPD officer radioed that he had a prisoner and was enroute to Fremont. The dispatcher informed him that the Fremont jail was closed. He said he would go to Santa Rita instead. But, in my 18 years of listening to Fremont PD I have never heard mention of the jail closing. I don't know if this is because all the beds are full (there are enough crazy transients out there to fill the beds, for sure) or if its another issue such as staffing.
Update: Fremont PD PIO Geneva Bosques has provided an update. She said the jail is normally closed once a year so the jailers can attend training and for maintenance to be performed. The jail should reopen this Friday.
