A man called at 8:30 a.m. Tuesday to report his 14-year-old daughter was impregnated by a 23-year-old man, who the father argued with when he dropped the girl off at Tracy High School.

The Tracy Police Department received 189 calls for service on Tuesday. The following is a sample of those calls.

1:06 a.m.: A caller from the Chesapeake Bay Apartments, 2941 W. Lowell Ave., reported hearing a gunshot. People in the area told police there was an explosion earlier, possibly from an M-80.

10:47 a.m.: A woman on the 1300 block of Maiden Court reported her 16-year-old granddaughter was refusing to go to school because other girls there were going to “kick her a**.” She asked an officer get the names of the girls threatening her granddaughter, who attends a local high school. An officer talked to the girl and said there were no threats, rather it was a case of “a 16-year-old who doesn’t want to go to school.”

11:10 a.m.: A caller reported being worried about a man in a red hat who seemed unable to keep riding straight on his bicycle at 12th Street and Holly Drive. The caller was worried the guy was drunk and would swerve into traffic.

1:18 p.m.: A suspected shoplifter was cited at Costco, 3250 W. Grant Line Road.

1:47 p.m.: The front license plate of a car was stolen from 11th and Adam streets, a caller said.

2:30 a.m.: Police issued a warning after a caller complained about a man illegally selling strawberries at Holly Drive and Lowell Avenue.

3:36 p.m.: A woman on the 800 block of Victoria Street reported her 17-year-old son was hitting her. She told police she suspects he uses drugs “because he always flips out,” but she’s never seen drugs. The boy grabbed the phone out of her hands and threw it when he saw she called police, she said, and said he hadn’t eaten today was “on speed or something similar.” Police arrested the boy.

3:50 p.m.: Police arrested one man on a warrant and another man and a woman on suspicion of drug violations on the 100 block of West First Street. Four cell phones and a gun were confiscated, and a Dodge Durango was towed.

5:36 p.m.: An 11-year-old girl was molested by her stepfather in south Tracy, one of the girl’s parent’s reported.

5:55 p.m.: A woman at the Orchard Estates Mobile Home Park, 812 W. Clover Road, reported her daughter was throwing things around in her home and was hitting her. Police showed up and arrested the 44-year-old daughter.

8:28 p.m.: A 14-year-old on the 600 block of South Street reported his stepfather “attacked” him, and he was bleeding in a nearby alley. The boy flagged down an officer who drove by, and police later said neither person wanted to press charges. The boy’s mother drove him “to live with his father in San Jose.”

8:29 p.m.: A 17-year-old suspected of shoplifting at Save Mart, 2005 N. Tracy Blvd., was released to the custody of parents.

Sighing, another girls' future altered.

Unfortunately, many teenagers have no concept of the future, the work it involves to survive via employment, marriage, and raising family.

He probably bought her lot of things, to seduce her. That is something parents need to be on the look out for, the items you do not recognize.

Big difference in age, child and adult.

He is the adult, he knows better, but child, does not always know what is best for themself.

Unfortunately men will seek younger and younger girls since they do not yet carry STD.

Just too many young girls being robbed of their rightful future. Parents, please talk to your sons and daughters about the predators out there. They know how to play the game. The child does not know their motives.

SAD! Too young for the baby, hard on undeveloped body.

Thank you for the information usn-cmc.

I agree with you, give him the maximum if he is the father. Plus make damn sure he pays child support. I've known many guys from my youth who did a hit and run, leaving 100% responsibility to the mother.

This is another example what happens to guys who think with their small head and not their big head. You play, you pay.

Per CA Penal Code Section 261.5, an adult 21 yrs or older who has sex with a minor 16 yrs or younger can be charged by the District Attorney with a misdemeanor and receive 1 yr in county jail or a felony and receive 2-4 yrs in a state prison. In addition the adult (questionable given his decision to have sex with a 14 yr old) can be taken to civil court and receive a judgement of $25,000 that goes to something called the CA Underage Sex Prevention Fund. I vote he get the maximum if its proven he's the father.

sorry about the double post i dont know why it does that..

My previous post didn't quit come out right I just wanted to kinda clarify i just meant that teens who make that choice are in a gray area but 14 is way way too young to be pregnant and she should not have been having sex in the first place and the 23 year old douchebag is a butthole for getting a 14 yearold pregnant.

"5:36 p.m.: An 11-year-old girl was molested by her stepfather in south Tracy, one of the girl’s parent’s reported."

"Police log: Father says man, 23, impregnated girl, 14."

Again, even the most ardent critics should be reminded these are proported calls made to a 911 operator.

Perhaps there should time for the proper investigative authorities to sort this all out and/or any furure charges filed with the DA.

In the court of public opinion however, this 23-year-old young man may find himself in a bit of a pickel considering the despairaging age difference (nearly 10 years).

The stepfather molesting an 11-year-old, now that's just plain creepy...

Im not saying its good for a 23 year old to have sex with a 14 year old but consensual sex is not rape if 14 year old can be tried as an adult and sentenced to life in prison or death for making decisions than whats the deal with that.

If it is his child, that would be clear proof of statutory rape. As TCY1 said, a 14 year old child cannot legally give consent. Will charges be filed? Who knows? What a mess though. Let's hope the 23 year old is ready to pay child support... and yes, most fathers would have knocked him out.... with good reason.

It seems to me the 23 year old is lucky considering he only got into a argument with the father of the 14 year old. I know many other fathers including myself who would react quite differently if it were my daughter.

When we were 23 we knew. 14 year old's do not. If the test prove he is the father then throw the book at him, if not for statuary rape then for stupidity.

TCY1, God help our kids even if it IS.

True. She is not a legal adult and the adult forced her to make a wrong decision. She will probably disagree and said it was her decision, but it all hurts in the long run especially at that age. It is hard to put my feelings in words but that is thebest I can do.

Gee,I wonder what the argument was about. Back during the 1950s singer Jerry Lee Lewis married his 12 year old cousin. So there's precedent for this. Mister 23 year old is going to find out it's a major hassle to keep his tennybopper queen well-stocked with bubble gum and Barbie dolls. Plus it's embarrassing in public when people say "Oh is that your daughter". That ruined Jerry Lee Lewis's music career.

...at the age of 14, a minor has not achieved the ability to consent to anything. This situation sure seems like an opportunity for a criminal complaint for statutory rape from the parent against the dirtbag responsible. Whether it was consensual or not, the adult is criminally responsible. Is statutory rape no longer a crime in Tracy? God help our kids if it isn't

Interesting case. I think it was not rape. I'm not sure what the police can do? Daughter made a mistake and the 23 y/o helped. I think you canbot be put in jail for getting the teen pregnant? I don't know!
