Fremont Police Seize Stolen Porsche, Arrest Hayward Man Suspected of Dealership Heist and Firearms OffensesSource: Fremont Police Department

Chaos erupted in Fremont on April 4 as two high-octane thieves swiped a pair of high-end Porsches right off a dealership floor, sowing a trail of shattered glass and fast-paced action worthy of a Hollywood script. The Fremont Police Department, in a press release dated May 8, confirmed they have revved up their efforts and successfully nabbed one suspect in connection with the daring heist and the illegal possession of firearms. The dual theft, occurring on the 5000 block of Cushing Parkway, saw the suspects make their grand escape in vehicles worth over half a million dollars.

Several hours into the pursuit, the department's Special Operations Division detectives recovered one of the stolen sports cars, a Porsche GT3 RS, safely stashed away in Milpitas, CA. The second vehicle, a Porsche GT3, continued to elude capture until detectives used the latest camera technology to track it down finally. According to the Fremont Police Department's X post, they identified and arrested the suspect, 22-year-old Nova Moore, a Hayward resident.

Moore, seemingly prepared to outmaneuver law enforcement, had his run cut short when a loaded handgun was found discarded during his arrest. A thorough search of Moore's abode yielded an alarming cache of high-capacity rifles, pilfered goods, a stack of cash, and even a police radio scanner. The FremontPD’s press release detailed the slew of charges against Moore, including burglary, vehicle theft, conspiracy, and weapons violations, painting a portrait of a plot as elaborate as it was audacious.

While one suspect is now facing the music, the search for the accomplice, who remains shrouded in mystery, continues. The police beckon the public to come forward with any information that could help put together the missing pieces of the puzzle. The Fremont Police Department acknowledges that for some, anonymity is key. They encourage people to submit tips through text, 'Tip FremontPD,' followed by the message to the number 888777, or through their website, ensuring that every whisper might help to bring the second suspect to justice.

For anyone with leads on the unidentified second suspect, it's time to shine a spotlight on justice. Detective A. Dennis of the Special Operations Division is standing by, reachable via email at [email protected] or by phone at 510-790-6900.
