Blood drive numbers ‘continue to grow’

Here are the results from last week’s Blood and Marrow Drive: 681 people gave blood and 47 signed up for the Be the Match bone marrow registry. “What a wonderful way to start 2016 off on such a positive note!” said Felicia Roper of BloodSource.

She said 864 people turned out for the two-day drive (not everyone can complete the donation process, for a variety of reasons). “Wow, the support of the BloodSource blood drives on the �������ϲ����Ͽ� Davis campus just continues to grow,” Roper said. “Thank you so much.”

BloodSource’s next visit is scheduled in April, in what will be the campus’s first-ever three-day blood drive: Tuesday-Thursday, April 19-21.

Arraignment set in Cuarto bike theft

Caught by the Yolo County sheriff himself, the suspect in a Jan. 7 campus bike theft was due for arraignment today (Feb. 2) in Yolo Superior Court.

Dateline �������ϲ����Ͽ� Davis reported incorrectly Jan. 26 that campus police had arrested David Goelz, 38, of West Sacramento, the day of the alleged theft. In fact, police only detained him that morning while a witness identified him as the man who was seen cutting the lock off a bicycle at Cuarto Residence Halls, officers said. But they could not determine who owned the bike, so officers let Goelz go.

Subsequently, police tracked down the owner, who filed a stolen-bike report, and investigators forwarded the case to the district attorney’s office. Last Friday (Jan. 29), according to the chief deputy district attorney, the office filed a charge of petty theft against Goelz.

�ٲ��ٱ�����Ա�’s original story told how Sheriff Ed Prieto stopped the suspect on Highway 113 after seeing him ride down the onramp from Russell Boulevard, meet up with a pickup that had stopped along the highway, throw the bike into the truck and then hop into the passenger side. Prieto and one of his deputies heard a radio report about the bike theft at Cuarto, so they contacted campus police, who arrived to take over the investigation.
