The Pleasanton Police Department is asking for the public’s help in finding three suspects whom they allege recently assaulted a woman in her driveway last week.
A resident of Chardonnay Drive — located near the intersection of Vineyard and Bernal avenues — was in her driveway around 8:15 p.m. on Dec. 7 when three black males approached her, according to a post Tuesday on the department’s Facebook page.
Two of the males assaulted her while the third grabbed her purse. A neighbor heard what was happening and confronted the assailants, who fled in either a 1990’s model Toyota Rav 4 or a Chevrolet Geo Tracker, according to police.
The assailants were described as having thin builds and were wearing sweatshirts with hoods pulled up over their heads, police said. About two hours after the assault, a neighbor saw several people matching the suspects’ descriptions in the area of Grapevine Drive.
Anyone who believes they saw the culprits or has information about the incident, including any security camera footage in the area, is asked to contact the department at 931-5100. Reference case No. 17-50063.
This happened on the 7th and today is the 12th. We need to be quicker getting out this type of information so people can be aware. Lots of people could have been hurt in the 5 days.
“About two hours after the assault, a neighbor saw several people matching the suspects’ descriptions in the area of Grapevine Drive.”
Police blotter says it was on 3000 block of Chardonnay, which is right where Grapevine intersects Vineyard. Did these perps hide in someone’s yard or something to still be around TWO HOURS later?
Pete, it probably took PW 4 days to decide whether or not to include the suspect’s race in their description.

OMG they disclosed the assailants race. Isn’t that profiling or some type of racism ?
Another online news source reported that the purse was found near the new apartment complex on Nevada Court the next morning.
All these robberies, mugging, and assaults have one common denominator so stating the obvious is really unnecessary. When you see a group of certain teens in town, you know something bad is bound to happen. Do something (e.g. call the police) before they do a number on you or your neighbors. Just saying…
And what is wrong with that part of Ptown with the street names of wine? It seems crime is quite prominent in that area.
