Colma's finest were on the prowl last night when they spotted a pair of San Franciscans in a legal kerfuffle over some dubiously parked wheels and a cache of ill-gotten goods. Coppers doing a routine sweep of a shopping plaza noticed a ride squatting arrogantly in a spot reserved for the disabled, sans the requisite placard. The sting was set in the 200 block of Colma Boulevard at around 7:18 pm, with the vehicle also guilty of wearing expired tags.

Law enforcement approached the 31-year-old woman in the driver's seat, who confirmed the absence of a disabled placard. A quick check with dispatchers laid bare another dirty detail: her driver’s license was suspended from action. Meanwhile, a second lady, aged 42, sauntered from a nearby establishment claiming an association with the vehicle. The plot only thickened as a routine scan revealed a misdemeanor warrant for her arrest.

According to the Colma Police Department, the elder of the troubling two admitted to having merchandise in the vehicle that wasn't hers to claim—lifted from some unsuspecting business across the bay. Colma's officers dutifully recovered the swiped stuff and dished out a fresh court date for Mrs. Sticky Fingers to answer for her warrant.

Despite her best efforts at nonchalance, the driver couldn't dodge a citation for her parking faux pas and the ghost of registration past. Both women got clipped without needing bracelets and were released at the scene.
