The victim, a 28 year old woman, was home alone when she was confronted by a man in her home. He sexually assaulted her and then took electronic items before fleeing the house. The man is described as an African-American in his early 40’s, approximately 5’9 tall, 160 pounds, with a bald head and medium complexion. He was wearing a blue and white t-shirt and jeans at the time of the assault. The victim suffered non-life threatening injuries and was treated at a local hospital. Oakland Police Special Victim’s Unit Investigators have taken over this investigation and have made the preliminary determination that this crime does not appear connected to any previously reported sexual assaults.

I know the residents and employees of Oakland care about this City and its Police Department. Thank you for your support. Especially Ms. Mary Miles of the Family Day Care Center whose students posed with posters with a message reading Chief Batts Please Don’t Leave.” The Chief also stated that he is “ready to roll up his sleeves and get back to work.”\n\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After \u003ca href=\"http://www.mercurynews.com/crime-courts/ci_17219996\">finishing second\u003c/a> in the competition to head the San Jose Police Department, some \u003ca href=\"http://www.californiabeat.org/2011/01/27/future-in-doubt-for-oakland-police-chief-anthony-batts\">question existed\u003c/a> as to whether Batts would remain in Oakland.

He had not spoken up until now, he said, because \"the decisions were being made by my bosses.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Asking to be quoted as Anthony Batts -- rather than as the chief of police -- Batts said the July layoffs of 80 officers were \"a horrendous decision,\" adding, \"The police department cannot be seen as a pariah, with no support, sitting out there by itself.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>...As to his future, Batts said in a news release, \"I have not made a final decision as to my future with this agency. It still needs to be determined if I am a fit for the city of Oakland's vision for the future.\" In an interview, he added, \"I work my butt off.
