Описание: SANTA MONICA, CA — Tuesday, January 12, 2026 — Santa Monica Police officers on patrol along Ocean Front Walk detained a man Tuesday after observing him allegedly rummaging through a city-owned trash receptacle, an act prohibited under Santa Monica Municipal Code §5.08.300(a), which restricts the removal of trash from public containers.

According to observations at the scene, officers contacted the individual—who appeared to be unhoused—while they conducted an investigation related to the alleged ordinance violation. During the detention, officers determined the man had an outstanding warrant. He was taken into custody without further incident.
