v. J.H., Defendant and Appellant. E057327 (Super.Ct.No. J245787) OPINION

APPEAL from the Superior Court of San Bernardino Count y. Barbara A. Buchholz, Judge. A ffirmed as modified. Sarita I. Ordonez, under appointment by the Court of Appeal, for Defendant and Appellant. Kamala D. Harris, Attorney General, Da ne R. Gillette, Chief Assistant Attorney General, Julie L. Garland, Assistant Attorney General, and Eric A. Swenson, Warren Williams and Marissa Bejarano, Deputy Attorn eys General, for Plaintiff and Respondent.2 Defendant J.H. was made a ward of the juvenile court and placed on probation for one year after the court found true an allega tion that he possessed a concealed handgun. J.H. challenges the court’s order denying hi s motion to suppress ev idence, specifically, the handgun and his statements admitting guilt. He also challenges three of his probation conditions. As discussed below, we affirm the trial court’s order denying the motion to suppress, but order one of the probati on conditions modified as described.
F ACTS AND P ROCEDURE 1 At approximately 6:45 p.m. on August 30, 2012, San Bernardino Police Officers Jason Heilman and Byron Clark were pa trolling a high-crime residential area 2 in a marked patrol car, as part of their duties w ith the gang unit. O fficer Heilman saw J.H. “running . . . in a full sprint” across the st reet 50 or 60 feet away, coming from between some apartment buildings. J.H. was wearing stre et clothes, as opposed to athletic clothes, and was alone. It was a typical hot August even ing. J.H. was holding the front pocket of his hooded jacket so that it appeared there was so mething heavy in the pocket. Specifically, J.H. was holding the object “still like so it wouldn’t move around. . . . that part of the hoodie was not moving. So, it was obvious there was something in there that he was holding from moving around.” J.H.’s hands were outside the pocket, not inside. Officer Heilman could not see the shape of the object or any shiny metal, but he believed,

1 The facts leading up to the detention and discovery of the handgun are taken from Officer Jason Heilman’s testimony at th e hearing on J.H.’s motion to suppress evidence. (Welf. & Inst. Code, § 700.1.)

2 Officer Heilman described the area as “the projects.”3 based on his extensive experience and training, that J.H. was carrying a gun. J.H. looked in the officer’s direction as he crossed the st reet. After Officer Heilman yelled at J.H. to “stop,” J.H. again “looked in [Officer Heilm an’s] direction,” but continued to run. Officer Heilman could not be sure if J.H. sa w him. J.H. ran into the courtyard of an apartment complex across the st reet from where he had emerge d. Officer Heilman lost sight of J.H. Officer Heilman did not rec ognize J.H. from any previous encounters. Officer Heilman got out of the patrol car and followed J.H. on foot, while Officer Clark circled the block in the patrol car. Officer Heilman crosse d another street and entered the courtyard of an ap artment complex, about 200 or 250 feet from where the foot chase began. At some point, Officer Heilman found J.H. “kind of hiding against or standing against a wall to the back of an ap artment.” J.H. was “standing against the wall . . . as . . . close as . . . he possibly could, standing like kind of stra ight and very still.” Officer Heilman approached J.H. and told him to get on the ground. J.H. did not comply and said he was just going to his girlfrie nd’s place. Officer Heilman put J.H. on the ground and handcuffed him. Officer Clark a rrived and started looking around. About 10 to 15 feet from where J.H. had been standi ng, Officer Clark lifted the top of a barbecue grill and found a loaded semiautomatic handgun inside. A woman came out from a nearby apartment and identified he rself as J.H.’s girlfriend. On September 4, 2012, the People filed a juvenile wardship petition under Welfare and Institutions Code section 602, subd ivision (a), alleging J.H. committed felony possession of a concealed weapon by a minor. (Pen. Code, § 29610.) On September 7,4 2012, J.H.’s counsel filed a motion to supp ress evidence. On September 13, 2012, the People filed their opposition, to which J.H.’s counsel f iled a reply on September 18, 2012. On September 19, 2012 , the juvenile court held a hearing on the motion, after which it denied the motion. The court re asoned that a reasonable police officer considering the facts known at the time would have had a reasonable suspicion that J.H. was connected with some type of crime. The contested jurisdictional hearing was he ld on September 26, 2012, at which the juvenile court found the allegation true. On October 11, 2012, the court made J.H. a ward of the court and placed him on probatio n, in his grandmothe r’s home until October 11, 2013, subject to conditions . This appeal followed.
D ISCUSSION 1. The Detention Was Constitutional J.H. argues the police had no reasonable su spicion to believe he was engaged in criminal activity because ther e were no specific and articulable facts to support such a conclusion. We disagree, because Officer He ilman testified that th e factors that first drew his attention to J.H. and made him su spect J.H. might be involved in criminal activity were that J.H. was in a “full sprint” and appeared to be holding a gun while doing so. These factors alone provided reasona ble suspicion to jus tify the detention. “The standard of appellate review of a trial court’s ruling on a motion to suppress is well established. We defer to the trial court’s factual findings, express or implied, where supported by substantial evidence. In determining whether, on the facts so found,5 the search or seizure was reasonable under the Fourth Amendment, we exercise our independent judgment.” ( People v. Glaser (1995) 11 Cal.4th 354, 362.) In determining whether a dete ntion is legal, reviewing c ourts consider the totality of the circumstances. ( People v. Souza (1994) 9 Cal.4th 224, 230-231 ( Souza ).) “‘[I]n order to justify an investigative stop or dete ntion the circumstances known or apparent to the officer must include specific and articul able facts causing him to suspect that (1) some activity relating to crime has taken plac e or is occurring or about to occur, and (2) the person he intends to stop or detain is involved in that activity. Not only must he subjectively entertain such a suspicion, but it must be objectively reasonable for him to do so: the facts must be such as would cause any reasonable police officer in a like position, drawing when appropriate on his trai ning and experience [citation], to suspect the same criminal activity an d the same involvement by th e person in question.’” ( People v. Loewen (1983) 35 Cal.3d 117, 123.) The full array of specific and articulable fa cts that, considered together and based on his experience and training, caused Officer Heilman to detain J.H. are the following: (1) J.H. “sprinted” across a street, coming from between some apartment buildings and disappearing into another set of apartm ent buildings, without any particular nonsuspicious justification, such as playing a game with others or wearing athletic attire; (2) J.H. continued running after twice looking in the officer’s direction, the second time after being told to “stop”; (3) J.H. was in a high-crime area known for gun violence; (4) J.H. had both hands on the outside of the front pocket of his hoodie jacket, worn on a hot6 August evening, and appeared to be holding steady a hea vy object in the pocket so it would not move around; and (5 ) after the foot chase, J.H. was found standing very still and flat up against a wall, in a manner that appeared intended to avoid detection. The fact we find most persuasive and which, from Officer Heilman’s testimony, appears key to the formation of his reasonabl e suspicion that J.H. might be involved in criminal activity, was the way J. H. appeared to be holding something heavy in his front jacket pocket so that it would not move around. Officer Heilman was an officer with the police department’s gang unit with extensiv e experience, and had attended and taught numerous classes on recognizin g and dealing with gang me mbers. Officer Heilman testified he had “a lot of” on-the-job training, in which he learned to look for specific signs that indicate a person might be holding a gun. “Sometimes their movements, the way they’re walking, if they’re holding their waistband because maybe they have a pistol in their pocket or in their wa istband they don’t want to fa ll out, the way they react when they see the police drive by. . . .” In add ition, Officer Heilman testified that “from my experience I know that when people carry guns on them in the street s, lot of times they will put it in that hoodie pocket to con ceal it.” We hold that Officer Heilman appropriately drew on his trai ning and extensive experien ce with gun crime and how people hold and attempt to conceal guns when he concluded that J.H. might be holding a gun and running from criminal activity. In addition, Officer Heilman testified that the area is known for narcotics and gunrelated offenses, including some recent murd ers and a shooting. Officer Heilman further7 stated that “[g]uns are very common over there.” While a suspect’s presence in a highcrime area is not by itself a fact justifying deten tion, it is a relevant factor and need not be ignored by police. ( People v. Huggins (2006) 38 Cal.4th 175, 242.) Like the suspect’s presence in a high-crim e area, flight from police does not, by itself, justify detaining a su spect. However, in conjunc tion with other suspicious circumstances, such as the ones present here (high-crime area, appearing to be holding a gun), such flight can help to create reasonable suspicion. (See Souza, supra , 9 Cal.4th at p. 239.) J.H. argues the evidence does not esta blish that he fled fro m police or even knew they were present. It is true that Officer Heilman testified that he had no way of knowing for sure whether J.H. actually saw him, either the first time J.H. looked in the direction of the patrol car, or the second time when he did so directly after Officer Heilman told him to “stop.” However, we think it was reasonable for Officer Heilman to conclude, at that moment, that J.H. likely saw the black and white patrol car after looking in that direction twice, once while crossing the street and ag ain after Officer Heilman yelled at him to stop, and deliberately chose to continue running away from the police. These circumstances, that J.H. was running across a street at fu ll speed in a highcrime area and was carefully ho lding a heavy object that, in the officer’s considerable experience, could well be a gun, leads us to conclude that Officer Heilman reasonably suspected J.H. might be involved in criminal activity. We uphold the juvenile court’s order denying the motion to suppress.8 2. Conditions of Probation J.H. also challenges the conditions of his probation that prohibit him from: coming within one block of a school, being in a courthouse , courthouse parking lot or courtroom without a subpoena, and being presen t in gang gathering areas. As discussed below, we affirm the impositi on of these conditions, but or der the courthouse condition modified as described to preserve J.H .’s right of access to court proceedings. “Pursuant to Penal Code section 1203.1, the sentencing court has broad discretion to prescribe reasonable probation conditions to foster rehabilitation and to protect the public so justice may be done. [Citations.]” ( People v. Miller (1989) 208 Cal.App.3d 1311, 1314.) While a probatione r retains rights of privacy and liberty under the federal Constitution ( People v. Keller (1978) 76 Cal.App.3d 827, 832, overruled on other grounds in People v. Welch (1993) 5 Cal.4th 228, 237) , probation conditions may nevertheless place limits on constitutional righ ts if necessary to meet the goals of probation ( People v. Bauer (1989) 211 Cal.App.3d 937, 940-941). Furthermore, as previously stated, “[a] conditio n of probation will not be held invalid unless it ‘(1) has no relationship to the crime of which the offe nder was convicted, (2) relates to conduct which is not in itself criminal , and (3) requires or forbids co nduct which is not reasonably related to future criminality . . . .’ [Citation.]” ( People v. Lent (1975) 15 Cal.3d 481, 486, fn. omitted ( Lent ).)9 “Prohibitions against a variety of gang-re lated activities have been upheld when imposed upon juvenile offenders. [Citations.]” ( People v. Lopez (1998) 66 Cal.App.4th 615, 624 ( Lopez ).) Here, J.H. admitted to be ing a gang member. He ha d previous arrests for residential burglary, petty th eft, and gun possession. Give n that J.H. was an admitted gang member with a criminal history, the juvenile court c ould reasonably determine that his disassociation from gang-related activiti es was an “essential element of any probationary effort at rehabilitation becaus e it would insulate him from a source of temptation to continue to pursue a cr iminal lifestyle. [Citations.]” ( Lopez, supra , 66 Cal.App.4th at p. 626.)
A. School and Courthouse Prohibitions Term 18 of J.H.’s probation requires that he “[n]ot be on any school campus or within a one-block radius of any school ca mpus unless enrolled there, or with prior administrative permission from school authorities.” Term 24 requires that J.H. “[n]ot appear at any court building, including the lobby, hallway, courtroom or parking lot, unless he/she is a party, defendant or subpoenaed as a witness to a court proceeding.” J.H. argues these conditions of his prob ation violate both his First Amendment rights to freedom of association and moveme nt and are not reasonably related to his offense under the test set forth in Lent, supra, 15 Cal.3d 481.10 A probation condition which infringes on a constitutional right, such as a right to travel, is permissible where it is necessary to serve the dual purpose of rehabilitation and public safety. ( People v. Peck (1996) 52 Cal.App.4th 351, 3 62 [Fourth Dist., Div. Two].) In this case, the school condition serves this dual purpose because it prohibits J.H. from approaching a school campus, and therefore juve niles, for purposes of recruiting children into his gang. Hence, this condition serves as a deterrent for J.H. to actively recruit on behalf of his gang at a convenient locati on, while protecting the children from being approached by J.H. The trial court, theref ore, properly exercised its discretion in imposing this probation condition because it was reasonably related to J.H.’s future criminality. (See People v. Carbajal (1995) 10 Cal.4th 1114, 1121 [even conditions that regulate conduct not in itself criminal are valid as long as they are reasonably related to the crime a defendant was convicted of or to any future criminality].) Regarding the condition restricting J.H.’s pr esence near a courthouse, we also note that a probation condition that is not “suffici ently narrowly drawn” may be modified and affirmed as modified. ( Lopez, supra, 66 Cal.App.4th at p. 629; see also In re E.O. (2010) 188 Cal.App.4th 1149, 1157.) We agree w ith the People, and with the court in In re
E.O. , that this probation conditio n is overbroad because it app lies to court cases that are not gang-related, and so unnecessarily restricts J.H.’s access to the courts. Therefore, we order the language of proba tion condition 24 to be modifi ed to read as follows: “You must not attend any gang-related c ourt case unless at least one of these things is true:11 “(1) You are a party to the case. “(2) You or a member of your immedi ate family is a vic tim of the activity charged in the case. “(3) You are there to obey a subpoena, summons, court order, or other official order to attend. “(4) A party’s attorney has asked you to testify or to speak to the court. “In all other cases, you must stay at l east 50 feet away from the entrance to any courtroom where you know there is a gang-related case going on.” ( In re E.O., supra, 188 Cal.App.4th at p. 1157, fn. 5.)
B. Gang Gathering Area Term 23 requires that J.H. “[n]ot be presen t in any area, which he/she knows to be a gang gathering area.” J.H. argues this condition is both unconstitutionally vague and infringes on his rights to travel and associ ate. However, as the People argued at the disposition hearing, such language has been uphe ld by case law. In People v. Barajas (2011) 198 Cal.App.4th 748, our colleagues in the Sixth District upheld a probation condition that the defendant not “visit or rema in in any specific lo cation which you know to be or which the probation officer informs you to be an area of criminal street gangrelated activity.” ( Id. at pp. 754-760.) Such language withstands the constitutional challenges raised by J.H. because “[t]he k nowledge condition suffices to give defendant fair warning of what areas to avoid and ensure s that he will not be found in violation due to a factual mistake, accident, or misfortune.” ( Id. at p. 760.) In addition, as discussed12 above with regard to the ot her two challenged probation co nditions, some infringement of constitutional rights is permissible where necessary to serve the dual purpose of rehabilitation a nd public safety (see also id. at pp. 755-756), and we conclude that this condition is narrowly drawn enough to wi thstand J.H.’s challenge based on his constitutional rights to travel and associate.
D ISPOSITION The language of probation condition 24 is modi fied as set forth above. In all other respects, the judgment is affirmed.
