Northside is the most populated area of North Berkeley, yet some residents have expressed that its public transportation is inadequate.

As California continues into the fire season, Berkeley emergency personnel arrested a 12-year-old girl allegedly connected to four separate fires in the Berkeley Hills on Friday.

During a traffic stop Jan. 14, Berkeley Police Department officers arrested three men on suspicion of possessing drugs for sale and carrying loaded and concealed handguns, among other offenses.

Berkeley City Council voted to establish an outdoor emergency shelter in response to the declaration of a shelter emergency in the city of Berkeley, the potential deaths of several unhoused people and hygiene concerns for the community.

The Berkeley Police Department sent out a Nixle Alert asking for help locating an "at-risk" man, who was later found Downtown by an alert community member.

Cyclist Sebastian Rodrigues collided with a vehicle on June 23 and died five days later, according to a Berkeleyside report.

The bicyclist involved in a traffic collision in West Berkeley on Wednesday morning is in "critical, but stable" condition, according to Berkeley Police Department spokesperson Officer Byron White.

Three robberies were reported in Berkeley in the past week, including one in South Berkeley, one in North Berkeley and one in West Berkeley, according to a Nixle alert released by Berkeley Police Department on Monday afternoon.

The center, located on Second Street between Cedar and Virginia Streets, will offer shelter, meals, showers and laundry facilities for up to 45 people, as well as a variety of services including assistance in finding permanent housing.

The closure is due to public works maintenance, and drivers should expect delays when driving between Eastshore Highway and Fourth Street.
