SFist Blotter

Courtesy of SFist Jon, creepiness a little outside our usual coverage area! Someone's been breaking into houses in San Lorenzo Valley, stealing stuff, and then writing on the walls, "I was here." Eep! However, this does also remind us of that old chestnut about the man who comes home to find that burglars have taken everything in his house except a toothbrush and a camera.

We also feel obliged to report that the SF Alcoholic Beverage Control has finished an investigation of Les Natali and the various Castro bars he runs, and concluded that he did not discriminate against African-Americans, which allowed them to renew his liquor license. The ABC is requiring Natali to hang a big sign outside his door saying he doesn't discriminate, though, and public comment will be heard about the decision (no date given). Natali has also announced that he's selling the Pendulum, which is considered SF's main African-American gay bar.

Late-breaking news so good we deleted the other blotter entries to make room: the guy who dressed like the cop for the Village People was arrested in Daly City when an actual cop pulled him over and found a gun and drugs in his car. The Village Person had a $15,000 felony warrant out for his arrest, and when they searched his mobile home, they found two pit bulls locked in his bedroom.
