SAN FRANCISCO – When one hears the names “Jones and Hale,” one might at first think of a law firm. Such is not the case in a burglary incident last week.
Maurice Jones
Around 1:00 am on May 11 an auto burglary occurred near Steiner Street and Geary Boulevard. Responding officers detained and arrested 23-year-old Brentwood resident Maurice Jones on site. His partner in crime, 21–year-old Antioch resident Hershel Hale, had other plans and took off.
Hale entered a vehicle at O’Farrell and Webster Streets and drove off in it. On the 1500 block of O’Farrell Hale collided with two marked SFPD cars. Also, an officer involved shooting occurred.
