Drunk in public, Hazel Street
Police responded to an unspecified situation requiring investigation in the 100 block of Hazel street when an inebriated 30-year-old Hollister resident began interfering with the investigation.

Possession of a deadly weapon, Memorial Drive and Sunnyslope Road
While on patrol last Thursday at 10:18 a.m., police officers observed a male juvenile who appeared to be truant. They verified his truancy and planned on transporting him to school. A search of the juvenile before he was placed in the police vehicle revealed a gravity knife. A gravity knife is a knife that has been altered, or was made, so that “it can be opened with a flick of the wrist,” said Capt. Bob Brooks of HPD.
