  Good morning. This is the Sacramento Brief, your
• 0:08
  weekday roundup of overnight headlines and what's
• 0:11
  ahead across the city. I'm Carol. It's Wednesday,
• 0:15
  December 10th, 2025. Let's get to it. Sacramento
• 0:19
  Police and Downtown Commons are opening a new
• 0:22
  Sacramento Police Department bike unit office
• 0:24
  at 320 K Street, giving officers a dedicated
• 0:28
  launch point in the downtown core. The Sacramento
• 0:31
  Police say that the space will boost visibility
• 0:34
  and response times, while DOCO leaders call it
• 0:38
  a shared commitment to a safer, more vibrant
• 0:40
  plaza. The bike unit is expected to be fully
• 0:44
  operational from its new location in early 2026.
• 0:48
  Meanwhile, elsewhere in the city, last night
• 0:51
  there was a report of a woman being robbed for
• 0:55
  money at gunpoint in the areas of Siskiyou Avenue
• 0:58
  and 23rd Avenue and Siskiyou Boulevard. Neighbors
• 1:04
  report they're hearing that there was a chase.
• 1:07
  It is unclear at this time whether there was
• 1:09
  a suspect apprehended. Elsewhere, officers responded
• 1:15
  to vandalism call in Northfield Drive Monday
• 1:18
  afternoon. While on scene, they saw the suspect
• 1:21
  escalate and assault the victim. When officers
• 1:24
  moved in, the suspect ran, but after a short
• 1:28
  foot chase pursuit, they safely were taken into
• 1:31
  custody and booked into juvenile hall on multiple
• 1:33
  charges. Earlier that morning, officers stopped
• 1:37
  a suspicious person at 5600 Stockton Boulevard.
• 1:42
  The individual also tried to run but was quickly
• 1:45
  detained. Officers say the suspect attempted
• 1:48
  to toss narcotics during the chase. Those drugs
• 1:51
  were recovered and the suspect was arrested on
• 1:54
  related charges. In City Watch, Sacramento County
• 1:59
  is activating a weather respite site as this
• 2:02
  cold, foggy system settles in. Starting Thursday
• 2:06
  at 2 p .m., the Warren E. Thornton Youth Center
• 2:09
  on Branch Center Road will stay open through
• 2:12
  Monday with an extension possible. It's 18 and
• 2:16
  older. Pets are allowed with crates that are
• 2:19
  provided. Guests get meals, cots, shower, restrooms,
• 2:24
  and charging stations. Before heading over there,
• 2:27
  though, call 211 to check capacity. Also, SACRT
• 2:31
  is offering free rides to help people reach that
• 2:35
  site. In weather today, we expect a repeat pattern,
• 2:40
  chilly all day with a high of 46 and no sun breaking
• 2:43
  through. In events, the Crocker Art Museum is
• 2:48
  hosting Wee Wednesdays this week, a fun interactive
• 2:51
  story and gallery adventure for the little ones,
• 2:54
  three to five years old. This session will offer...
• 2:58
  We offer today from 10 .30 a .m. to 11. Kids
• 3:02
  explore art through play and guided conversation,
• 3:05
  building confidence and creativity. Admission
• 3:09
  is free for members and children and $15 for
• 3:13
  general visitors. Advanced registration is recommended,
• 3:17
  but drop -ins are welcome as space allows. And
• 3:21
  if you're looking for something a little more
• 3:23
  spirited for the grown -ups, the Crocker Art
• 3:26
  Museum is also throwing its Holiday Art Mix Grinchmas.
• 3:30
  That'll be tomorrow from 6 to 9 p .m. It's an
• 3:35
  adult -only night packed with drag performances,
• 3:39
  live DJs, festive foods, and drinks, hand -on
• 3:43
  art making, and playful white elephant gift exchange.
• 3:48
  Admission is free for members, $25 for non -members,
• 3:53
  and it's all happening at the Crocker on O Street.
• 3:59
  Get it together this morning. Thank you for being
• 4:02
  with me. That's all for today's Sacramento Brief.
