Law roundup: Resident gets their goat

Someone called 911 and hung up, then called again to report a dozen goats stampeding through yards. They got the adults into a pen and eventually corralled the kids in the  backyard.  

A 3-year-old wearing a diaper was spotted walking alone until her parents walked her back inside. It was reportedly the fourth time. Officers spoke with the parents who purportedly had three “busy” Houdinis who could bypass locks and systems in place to secure fences and doors. The parents were given options for additional security measures to secure the little escape artists.  

Someone thought they saw a 10-year-old driving a pickup. Officers made contact with the driver who “does look a bit young,” but is 16. 

Someone reportedly told a man to pull up his sweatpants when they saw his genitalia was exposed, and he did, but after circling the block they spotted him sitting on a park bench with his pants down again and a man dressed in black screaming at him. The man said he was hungry and not feeling well. Jail staff checked his blood sugar and took him to the emergency room. 

A man with a very red face was seen stumbling in traffic, which concerned someone who thought it might be heat-related and told officers he looked to be in his 60s or 70s. Officers took him home. 

Officers received a later call from someone else concerned about the hot temperatures and the wellbeing of a red-faced man standing by a truck with the hood up pulled over on the bypass. The man, who appeared to be in his 80s, was having an engine issue but had help on the way.

A passerby called police to report a man in his 30s lying on the ground near bushes but did not stop. The man, who was reportedly diabetic and not making sense, was taken to the hospital. 

A property manager reported a group of teens in a pool who were allegedly not supposed to be on the property and said a girl was harassing people. They called back to update police that they were able to handle the situation and didn’t need law enforcement to respond. 

A tan Chevy Suburban reportedly parked in a road hadn’t moved since October and was owned by a man known for his yelling matches.
