~ In a recent press release, it was announced that the California Highway Patrol (CHP) has successfully recovered 726 stolen vehicles, made 355 arrests, and seized 46 crime-linked firearms in Oakland and the East Bay since February. These efforts were part of targeted sting operations and law enforcement surges aimed at combating organized crime, carjackings, and other criminal activities.
Governor Gavin Newsom commended the CHP for their work in supporting local law enforcement efforts to ensure the safety of communities statewide. He stated that the state will continue to hold perpetrators accountable for their criminal actions.
CHP Commissioner Sean Duryee also praised the ongoing crime suppression operation in Oakland and the East Bay as a testament to their commitment to enhancing public safety. By targeting high-crime areas and deploying additional resources, they are working with law enforcement partners to reduce criminal activity and create safer communities.

Since the initial surge was announced by Governor Newsom on February 14th, the CHP has continued to make progress in their operations. In addition to recovering stolen vehicles and seizing firearms, suspects have been arrested for charges including possession of stolen property, auto theft, transportation of narcotics, DUI, felony gun possession, and outstanding warrants.
The CHP has been conducting undercover operations and uniformed patrols while coordinating with local law enforcement agencies. This collaborative effort has led to successful outcomes in combating various crimes in the region.
Today's announcement is part of Governor Newsom's ongoing efforts to improve public safety in the East Bay. This includes a temporary CHP surge operation and increased enforcement focused on combating auto theft, cargo theft, retail crime, violent crime, and high-visibility traffic enforcement.
In late March, it was also announced that the state will be installing a network of 480 high-tech cameras in Oakland and the East Bay to aid law enforcement in identifying vehicles linked to crimes using real-time information and alerts.

The state has also invested in other initiatives to support Oakland and Alameda County, such as Caltrans' 10-Point Action Plan which outlines actionable steps to improve street safety and beautification. This includes blight abatement efforts, homeless encampment resolutions, community outreach initiatives, employment opportunities, and other beautification and safety efforts.
In addition to these investments, Governor Newsom has called for new legislation to expand criminal penalties and provide law enforcement with more tools to combat theft and take down professional criminals who profit from smash-and-grabs, retail theft, and car burglaries. The state has also announced a significant increase in proactive operations targeting organized retail crime as part of California's Real Public Safety Plan.
With these efforts in place, the state is committed to fighting crime and improving public safety for all residents. The success of the CHP's sting operations in recovering stolen vehicles and seizing firearms is just one example of the progress being made towards this goal.
