San Jose Admits Communication Error With Public
STOCKTON, Calif. -- When a San Jose Police Department SWAT team served a search warrant in the 3700 block of McDougald Boulevard last week, many residents standing behind the yellow caution tape wondered why.

When the San Jose officers left the Weston Ranch neighborhood after an 11-hour operation without an arrest, an explanation or even a word about their presence, the questions increased.

Why didn't the Stockton Police Department, which set up barricades and rerouted traffic, handle the standoff? Why didn't the San Joaquin County Sheriff's Department play a role? Who were the San Jose officers looking for?

...

"From a public-relations standpoint, we screwed up," he said. "We screwed up when we went into another city, shot a house with tear gas and left without saying anything."
