Davis police ticket driver for honking near ICE agents. City responds to concerns
Davis officials said city police did not cooperate with federal immigration agents Thursday, despite an officer issuing a citation to a driver for improperly honking a car horn during an immigration enforcement operation. “I know these reports are troubling, but let’s not rush to judgment and assume negative intent,” Davis City Manager Daryel Dunston said in a statement posted to the city’s Facebook page . “Let’s allow space for the administrative review process to run its course. If it is found that internal policies were violated, it will be addressed accordingly.” City officials said a Davis police officer spotted a driver “excessively sounding their vehicle’s horn” shortly after 10 a.m. near Cowell Boulevard and Lillard Drive. The officer pulled over the driver and issued a citation. The city said it was reviewing the incident to determine whether the officer violated any city policies or regulations. “We understand how this interaction may be perceived by members of our community, particularly those concerned about federal immigration enforcement,” the city’s statement read. “An incident like this can create the perception that local law enforcement is assisting federal immigration authorities and potentially undermine the trust we work hard to maintain. We take these concerns

New dessert place in downtown Davis serves Thai toast, other sweet Asian treats
Mango sticky rice crepe, Hokkaido milk crepe cakes, and tea lattes are all sugary delectables at courtesy of a new dessert spot in Davis. Naya Dessert Cafe is serving the sweet goods at 620 Fourth St. in downtown Davis. The business specializes in Thai-inspired desserts and is the first and only location in the Sacramento area. The Davis location, which officially opened in October, offers a menu that includes cake, toast, crepes, ice cream, drinks and Bingsu, a creamy Korean shaved ice made from frozen milk and condensed milk. The business’s signature sweets are its Mango Tango Bingsu, Black Thai Tea crepe, Thai Tea crepe cake, and a chocolate lava cake with salted egg cream custard inside and served with vanilla ice cream and fresh strawberries. What truly separates Naya Dessert Cafe is its toast dessert. Unlike the traditional flat American toast, Thai toast is a thicker bread that towers over a scoop of ice cream and fresh fruit. With butter glazed on the bread’s edges, Thai toast is sweet, fluffy and served with a flavored cream drizzle. Toasts include: the “Kaya Toasted” with pandan sauce, coconut shaving, sliced banana and vanilla ice cream, the “Golden Toasted” with fresh strawberries,
