The threat of pirates ransacking boats in Oakland Estuary marinas has risen to a new level.
Thefts are becoming more brazen and more costly. Meanwhile, residents said they've given up relying on the police for help.
Young said the police never came. He said it wasn't until days later, when the insurance company called them, that the boat was recovered. But by then it was too late. "And then, a few days later, someone in this marina had to defend themselves with guns against the pirates. And that's where it is right now," said Michael West. "Everybody here has a gun or knife or a sword or a stick or something, you know, to protect themselves."
But so far, that hasn't happened, and the people living on the waterfront feel like they're on their own. Young said he's had enough. His boat couldn't survive the earthquake of crime shaking Oakland.
