Steidle said his organization is using a variety of strategies to reduce the property crime trend’s impact on Pacifica.  ... Sharing data with other San Mateo County police agencies makes it easier to know when and where such criminals might strike. 'It’s all about intelligence-led policing,' the chief noted.  ... Civic engagement will be a top priority for Steidle, who said police can’t be effective without community buy-in."
