Anthony Joseph Spiteri was mentioned in the San Francisco Chronicle on 26 July 1969: Black Lady Teacher Says Cop Degraded Her By Maitland Zane
An attractive Negro woman teacher from Fresno complained to Mayor Joseph L Alioto yesterday that police “'insulted and degraded her by treating her as a suspected prostitute Thursday night
Mae Ethridge who teaches physical education at Fresno City College, is one of 21 junior college teachers from around the country who ore here for a Federally financed coarse at San Francisco City College on improving education of ghetto students. Miss Ethridge, who is about 30, looks like anything but a streetwalker. She is tall, slim elegantly dressed, with a considerable dignity in her manner. This was the story she told newsmen and the mayor, while demanding an official apology: On Thursday night she and some fellow teachers went to Glide Memorial Church for a “happening.” Then about 11 p.m. she and her friends went to La Bamba, a Mexican restaurant ät 40 Turk street, for a late meal. The interracial group had just sat down to order when they heard the roar of several motorcycles. She and her friencs ran to the door of the restaurant to see what was happening. There, she said, she saw four city motorcycle officers chasing four “drag queens.”; male homosexuals dressedi as women. She said one of the officers ran his bike up on the sidewalk and followed the “queens.” bumping at least one of them with his cycle. “The cops were giggling to themselves,” she said.
Her friends then returned to the table, but Mss Ethridge remained in the doorway because at that point several carloads of police rolled up, and she wanted to see what wouid happen next Partolman Anthony Spiteri, saw her standing in the doorway and came over to question her.
Within minutes, she said, “I was surrounded by nine cops. Spiteri told her that the Tenderioin is a high-crime area with a great deal of prostitution, she said. His manner was abusive; she told the mayor and she was ‘insulted and degraded” at being taken for a streetwalker. And she demanded that the field interrogation or ‘"white card’’ on which Spheri described her as a “suspected prostitute" be given to her so that she would have no police record whatever in San Francisco.
She also is demanding an official apology and is even thinking of filing a lawsuit against the city.
One of the things which rankled most, she said, was that two white girls were loitering in a doorway nearby, but police ignored them. “I was picked on because I am black,” she said. “If I was white, it wouldn’t have happened. I was horribly embarrassed. I never even have had an occasion before to speak to a police officer." "Now I think of them as ‘pigs’ which is a word I’ve never used before.” Bill Wood, 50, one of the 20 teachers who accompanied Miss Ethridge to the mayor’s office, identified himself as chemistry instructor at Riverside City College. "We were insulted because she was insulted.” Wood said. ‘'We’ve visited several ghetto neighborhoods in our three weeks in San Francisco, and all we’ve heard is a story of harassment. The police here seem to be against the people, not for them.” Alioio spent 15 minutes with Miss Ethridge and the other teachers, questioning them in detail about the incident. Don Peterson, an English instructor at City College, who is in charge of the summer program, said Alioto promised to investigate the matter personally and, if the situation warrants it,to get the “white card” returned to Misss Ethridge. Whether an officiai apology will be forthcomiag seemed somehow unlikely last night. Officer Spiteri, 23, who joined the force only last October, was identified by the department as one of 150 officers who took parti a crime prevention squad “sweep’* of the Teadenoin on Thursday. Supervising Captain Edward Cummins defended Spiteri's actions, saying it was “standard procedure” for police to stop and question “people who are acting suspicously or out of chsracter. Furthermore, he said, a '‘white card" is purely for department use and is “not a police record.”.






Anthony Joseph Spiteri was mentioned in the San Francisco Chronicle on 27 September 1971: Cops Deliver Baby in a Car
Two young police officers, remembering a 20- minute training film they saw three years ago at the Police Academy, yesterday turned a parked car into an emergency room and delivered a healthy 6 pound, 13 ounce baby boy. Patrolmen William Taylor and Anthony Spiteri delivered the baby in the 2000 block of San Jose avenue at 1:30 a.m., when Frankie Gates was caught short by her newborn son. anxious to get into the world. Taylor and Spiteri, both three years on the force and members of the Crime Prevention squad, were on routine patrol when they were stopped by three women in a car who frantically asked for an escort to Mount Zion Hospita. “When we saw Mrs. Gates said Taylor, “We knew it was too late for the hospital.” While Taylor summoned an
ambulance, his partner instructed Mrs. Gates to lie in the front seat of the car. Recalling a movie shown to them at the police academy, the two officers went to work. Improvising as they went
along, Spiteri cleaned the baby with tissue and tied off the umbilical cord with his shoelace as Taylor “slapped” the first squawk from little Howard Armand Gates. Taylor, who last year killed
a man in the line of duty, said it was a particularly moving experience to “have been able to give a life.”.

Anthony Joseph Spiteri was mentioned in the San Francisco Chronicle on 28 September 1978: A Cop Is Shot Near Candlestick -- A San Francisco police officer was shot in the leg yesterday while attempting to question a man prowling around a car parked in a dusty lot south of Candlestick Park. Patrolman Anthony Spiteri, 31, was in satisfactory condition later after surgery at Mission Emergency Hospital. Homicide inspector Frank Falzon. called with dozens of other officers to the 1:30 pm shooting, said Spiteri apparently had gotten out of his squad car to talk to the suspect when the man pulled a revolver and fired at him several times. Spiteri managed to roll onto the driver's seat after being hit once in the right calf, investigators said, and fired back at the fleeing suspect through the patrol car windshield- Then, they said, he drove after the man for about 50 yards before radioing for help. The suspect. Falzon said, escaped in a dark green compact car with out-of-state red and white license plates. He was described as black, in his mid-20s. six feet tall, about 150 pounds. medium-Afro hair and wearing a zippered green jacket.
No witnesses came forward immediately. But Falzon said there were reports that a group of young men regularly congregate by the bay at the tip of the landfill area, just south of Jamestown avenue about a half-mile from the stadium. Spiteri was assigned to Candlestick to help patrol the crowd for the Giants-San Diego baseball game, which began 25 minutes before he was shot.

Anthony Joseph Spiteri was mentioned in the San Francisco Chronicle on 10 October 1978: SAN FRANCISCO Anthony J. Spiteri, a St. Julian's-bom Policeman in the City of San Francisco, was shot twice in his right leg by an unidentified gunman last week. Spiteri. 28. was patrolling a car park and having a closer look at a suspicious car when he was attacked by the gunman. The young policeman, father of two young girls. Lisa and Angela, would have been mortally wounded had he not worn a bullet-proof vest. The gunman fired at least eight shots in the direction of Spiteri. Though two bullets lay embedded in his leg, Spiteri eventually engaged the gunman in a car chase, but then passed out. He has been with the San Francisco Police for the past 10 years. He had several scrapes as well. A few years back he chased a dangerous Canadian convict who had escaped from prison and was responsible for his recapture. On another occasion he foiled an armed bank robbery after he himself was initially held at gunpoint. Police work in San Francisco is a dangerous profession. The Mayor of Francisco, Mr. George Mosconi, visited Spiteri at the hospital soon after the first operation to remove the bullets was carried out. The Mayor is a friend of the Maltese community and has expressed the city's gratitude for Spiteri's persistence to fight crime. The young policeman is the son of Mr. J. Spiteri, formerly of Hamrun, who migrated to the U.S.A. in 1951. Anthony Joseph Spiteri was a policeman in the Legal System for possesion of a weapon with altered serial number and making a false statements concerning an official investigation (shooting himself for medical disability) in 1979.

Anthony Joseph Spiteri was mentioned in the San Francisco Chronicle on 27 February 1979: S.F. Cop Surrenders In Shooting Case
A San Francisco policeman surrendered at city prison yesterday after being charged with filing a false report about how he was shot in the leg at Candlestick Park last September.
Anthony Spiteri, 31, was released on his own recognizance and is scheduled to be arraigned at 9 a m. today in Municipal Court at the Hall of Justice.
The charges stem from an incident September 27, when Spiteri was assigned to Candlestick Park to help patrol the crowd at a baseball game. Spiteri said then that he was shot in the leg by an unknown suspect as he got out of his squad car to talk to the man. But in January, police Lieutenant John Jordan said “serious doubts” had arisen over the version of the shooting given by Spiteri. The charges against Spiteri include making a false police report, possessing a weapon with an obliterated serial number and violating a state law which prohibits public officers from making a false report to their agencies. All three violations are misdemeanors.
Spiteri has been at home on paid sick leave since the incident.

Anthony Joseph Spiteri was mentioned in the San Francisco Chronicle on 7 July 1979: S.F. Jury Finds Policeman Guilty -- A San Francisco police officer was found guilty yesterday for deliberately shooting himself in the leg in order to collect disability pay. Anthony J Spiteri, 32, was convicted after a special investigation was launched into a shooting incident he reported at Candlestick Park, where he was assignee on the final day of the baseball season last September 27. Spiteri claimed a black man shot him in the right calf after the officer attempted to run a stolen car check on the assailant's auto. But a month later a fisherman near the scene of the shooting retrieved a corroded .38 caliber handgun from the bay. A check by crime lab specialists showed that though one serial number was etched off. a second number remained in a concealed spot on the gun.

Wellenberg on charges of possession of a weapon with an altered serial number and making a false statements concerning an official investigation.

Anthony Joseph Spiteri was mentioned in the San Francisco Chronicle on 21 August 1979: S.F. Cop Sentenced -- San Francisco policeman Apthony J. Spited, 32, who shot himself in the leg to collect disability pay. was sentenced to one year in county jail by Municipal Court Judge Albert C. Wollenberg yesterday. But Judge Wollenberg offered to suspend the sentence and put Spiteri on probation for three years if Spiteri agreed to resign from the police department, serve 30 days in jail and pay a fine of $500. Spiteri’s attorney, Mortimer F. Mclnerny, called the sentence “unduly harsh” and said he will appeal. Spiteri was convicted July 6 of two misdemeanors — possession of a weapon with an altered serial number and making false statements concerning an official investigation. Spiteri told fellow officers he was shot in the leg by a man while the officer was on duty last September 27, the final day of the baseball season at Candlestick Park.
A month later, however, a fisherman near the scene of the shooting retrieved a corroded .38 caliber pistol from the bay. A check by crime lab specialists showed that although one serial number was etched off, a second number remained in a concealed spot on the gun.
Assistant District Attorney Bob Graham, after a special investigation into the shooting, said the gun was owned by Spiteri. Yesterday, in passing sentence. Wollenberg said he could not “countenance the possession of such a gun by a police officer." Wollenberg gave Spiteri until September 17 to clean up his affairs before reporting to begin his sentence.
