On July 22, 2025, Monterey Police Officers were dispatched to the 800 block of Cannery Row regarding a report of a male who had engaged in suspicious behavior but was no longer in the area. The male was reported to have followed
a young adult female inside of a business and pressed up against her. In two other separate incidents the male was reported holding a cell phone with his hands lowered while standing close to females wearing skirts. It appeared the male was pressing up close to the females in an effort to photograph up their skirts.

One of the victims reported the incident to a security guard who attempted to detain the male. Initially the male  stopped and provided a name, but the male then fled the area on foot and was not located. The name provided by the male was determined to be a false name.

MPD Officers identified Jordan Pollacci, 35 years old of Monterey, as a suspect in this case. Officers noted Pollacci matched the description of the suspect in the surveillance camera videos. Pollacci’s vehicle was also captured on Automated License Plate Reader (ALPR) cameras both arriving and leaving around the same time as the suspect

Pollacci has prior convictions for 647(j)(2) PC — invasion of privacy, and 311.11 (a) PC — possession of obscene material after he was arrested in Monterey County for taking photos up a woman’s dress in 2014. In 2022, Pollacci was arrested by Newport Beach police for taking photos of a female inside a store changing room

Pollacci is required to register as a sex offender as a result of his convictions- MPD  Officers attempted to contact Pollacci at his registered address, but he was not located.
On August 5, 2025, MPD Officers served a search warrant and arrest warrant at a residence on El Caminito Del Norte, Monterey, and placed Pollacci under arrest.

Pollacci was booked into Monterey County Jail on charges of 647(j)(2) PC invasion of privacy and — sexual battery. His bail was set at $500,000.

This is what Flock cameras are for.

Icaro Fernandes Araujo

A Marina man who police say struck a 14-year-old boy with his car in Pacific Grove and fled the scene last weekend was arrested the next day, thanks to technology and several vigilant citizens.
Pacific Grove Police said that on Jan. 25 the teenager, a student at P.G. Middle School, was running southbound across Lighthouse Avenue at Alder Street when 36-year-old Toyota Prius driver Icaro Fernandes Araujo struck him and left the scene.

“The day after the accident, the suspect’s vehicle was seen driving through the City of Pacific Grove,” P.G. Police said. A citizen “got the suspect vehicle’s license plate  number and provided it to the police department.”

Investigators checked the city’s Flock camera system, which captures images of license plates of vehicles entering and leaving the city, and confirmed that a car with the same plate had been in P.G. around the time of the hit-and-run.
