Milpitas youth football players' birth certificates stolen in Hayward

The parents of more than 80 young athletes in the Milpitas Knights PAL Youth Football program received a troubling e-mail Aug. 8. The president of the league sent an apology stating a bag of registration materials — including original birth certificates, physical forms, registration forms and photos — had been stolen from the back seat of a volunteer’s car on Aug. 6.

According to the police report filed in Hayward, where the incident occurred, a volunteer had left the sensitive items in the back seat of her vehicle.
