   Crime in California's Bay Area has now moved off land, as authorities are   
   facing a scourge of pirates.   
      
   Boaters in marinas on the Oakland Estuary, in the East Bay, are facing   
   stolen boats and destruction of property as pirates on dinghies board   
   boats during the night.   
      
   "Over the last couple of months it’s become extremely severe, boats are   
   being stolen almost on a nightly basis," Brock DeLappe, former Oakland   
   Marina harbormaster, said. "Residents in marinas are scared, they’re   
   talking about forming groups, they’re arming themselves. Someone’s going   
   to get hurt if this is not taken seriously by authorities."   
      
   The police in the area are doing little to apprehend the criminals, CBS   
   News reported:   
      
   Steven Young outfitted his boat, the "Bay Escape," to serve as a survival   
   craft in case of a large earthquake or disaster.   
      
   But that plan was sunk recently when thieves stole the 40-foot Sea Ray   
   yacht from its slip at the Embarcadero Cove Marina. They spotted it a few   
   days later, stuck on some nearby rocks, with people still aboard.   
      
   Young called the police.   
      
   "I told them somebody's on the boat; they're moving it as we speak,"   
   recalled Young. "Can you just go down and impound it? The police gave us,   
   'Well do you have a police report?' I said, 'No, we just found it. It's   
   grounded; there's people on it. Can you do anything?' They said, 'We can't   
   do anything. What you need to do is get a police report.'"   
      
   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.   
      
   It's the latest example of soaring crime in the Bay Area. San Francisco,   
   the largest city in the region, is losing businesses at an increasing   
   rate.   
      
   Marc Benioff, cofounder and CEO of Salesforce, said last month that his   
   company may be hosting its final "Dreamforce" tech conference in San   
   Francisco this year, pointing to attendees' fears about safety in the   
   city.   
      
   Salesforce has given tens of millions of dollars to fight homelessness and   
   crime, but the city continues to struggle with public safety, an issue   
   that has prompted dozens of businesses to close or relocate.   
      
   Homicides in San Francisco have increased nearly 40 percent from 2020 to   
   2022, and deaths from fentanyl have spiked.
