In re Charlie J. CA1/2
Minor Charlie J. appeals from the juvenile court’s findings and dispositional order placing him on probation for receiving a stolen motor vehicle in a proceeding initiated by the People’s filing of a petition under Welfare and Institutions Code section 602. Charlie admitted to this allegation after the juvenile court denied his motion to suppress evidence obtained in the course of his detention and pat search by an Oakland Housing Authority police officer. The officer detained Charlie just moments after observing a hooded Charlie walking with a non-running Vespa motor scooter against traffic one morning, approximately one block from the West Oakland BART station and, upon approaching Charlie, noting several other suspicious circumstances. Charlie argues the juvenile court should have granted his motion to suppress for multiple reasons. We disagree and affirm.
