A man allegedly had a verbal agreement with an online forum user to buy video game "skins" and paid $950 but hadn’t received the digital items for weeks. An officer answered his questions about filing a civil suit and advised him to report the alleged fraud to his bank.  

A man reportedly kept hearing a deep bass noise and called the police when his quest to find the source proved fruitless. He told a responding officer, who didn't hear any noises, that it could only be heard in his apartment, asking the officer to come up. The officer told him to contact his landlord. 

A store customer reportedly forgot to take $20 in change at a self-checkout register and an employee said the woman next in line used it to pay for her groceries. An officer advised the customer that it wasn’t a crime as she didn’t know who the money belonged to and didn’t have an obligation to turn it in or find the owner.  

A woman allegedly woke up to a man banging on her door, yelling at her and wiggling the handle. She told the police he was slurring his words and she couldn’t make out what he was saying.  

A man reportedly grabbed his cousin’s girlfriend and hit her in the face.   

Three youths were allegedly riding motorbikes up and down the street without lights on and were jumping across the road, interfering with traffic.  

A woman in a fifth wheel set up camp in a parking lot, leaving her stuff all over the property. An officer told her to move along. 

A woman complained about panhandlers flipping people off and swearing. 

A couple were reportedly harassing someone's mother.
