Penske Truck Update

From FPD Nixle:

On Wednesday, April 1, 2020, at 8:49 p.m., patrol officers were contacted by a victim who had his house burglarized the day prior (March 31, 2020).  The victim advised that a large Penske box truck was the suspect vehicle in the burglary and that he had just located the truck parked at the Mission Valley Shopping Plaza (Mission/Las Palmas). He provided the license plate and it came back as a stolen vehicle out of Union City.  As officers were responding, detectives advised that the same vehicle was suspected in a larger series of burglaries throughout Fremont.  

Patrol officers arrived on scene and attempted an enforcement stop on the box truck.  The vehicle immediately fled and led officers on a pursuit through Fremont, Union City, Hayward, and into San Leandro.  

In San Leandro, the suspect collided with another driver at the intersection of Bancroft Ave. and Juana Ave. causing the box truck to become disabled.  The driver of the other vehicle did not sustain any injuries.  The suspect fled on foot however he was quickly apprehended by an FPD K9.  The suspect, identified as 34-year-old Andrew Beck, a transient from Fremont, was arrested for possession of a stolen vehicle, possession of stolen property, hit and run, felony evading, and resisting arrest.

He was transported to a local hospital for treatment of moderate injuries sustained during the K9 apprehension.  He currently remains hospitalized, pending medical clearance to be booked at Santa Rita Jail.  The case into the residential burglary remains ongoing and detectives are following up on other crimes reported throughout the City.  

We’d like to thank Union City PD, Hayward PD, and San Leandro PD for their assistance.  We’d also like to thank CHP and East Bay Regional Parks PD for sending their air units.  

Attached is a booking photo for Beck from a 02/20/20 Assault with a Deadly Weapon arrest by FPD.  Mr. Beck’s updated photograph will be made available once he is booked.  Mr. Beck is currently on probation for four different incidents: removing required coloring on an imitation firearm, possession of dangerous drugs, identify theft, and challenging another to fight.  He has a lengthy criminal history for various property crimes, drug violations, and weapons violations.  

Anyone with information about this case is asked to please contact Fremont Police Detective M. Stone at Mstone@fremont.gov or call the Investigative Unit at 510-790-6900.  We also accept and welcome anonymous tips.  To send a web tip, go to https://local.nixle.com/tip/alert/5788118 or text your tip, by typing TIP FREMONTPD followed by your short message to 888777.
