TBS Today, Feb. 26
We're writing this from the courthouse, which often feels like our second home.
Today's stories: We have some information about an OPD arrest that brought OPD's helicopter to Berkeley last week. Many people asked us about it.
It was a tough one to track down, but we persisted. We always appreciate your inquiries and do our best to chase them down.

We also have a reader dispatch about the frustration he encountered when trying to get police to help recover his stolen car last week.
Editor’s desk
Car thefts continue to rise in Berkeley and we all know BPD staffing is low.
We always appreciate hearing from readers about the direct impacts of crime and aim to feature more of your stories.
