A blue sedan reportedly drove around a park a few times checking out a man when one of the passengers, a teenage girl with red hair, threw a partially filled drink at his car. The gas station cup landed on his car and bounced off the man. While uninjured, the man voiced his frustration with the teens’ behavior, suspecting there were more occupants, and wanted to pursue a disorderly conduct charge if they were located. 

A woman was allegedly sleeping on the sidewalk “with vomit all over and about eight bags of belongings,” according to a passerby who complained to police that children walking to school “had to witness this and walk by it.” The woman got up and headed to the Warming Shelter.   

Someone waiting for a tow allegedly saw a group of boys shoot a paintball gun toward a van and tried to open a door on the vehicle, but it was locked.   

A man reportedly lost his phone off the back of his truck while in the middle of an intersection and called the police, hoping they could stop traffic so he could retrieve it. The phone was recovered. 

A woman’s wallet was reportedly stolen out of a car and her husband relayed to police that someone attempted to use it for $51, but it was declined. Officers followed up with security employees who said they had located when and where the transaction was declined and said they would gather the evidence for police. 

Officers responded to a burglary alarm and allegedly found an open window and tool marks on the window seal. A drone was used to clear the perimeter, and officers cleared the house.  

A white station wagon allegedly cruised through a westside neighborhood with its lights off while the passenger shined a flashlight at houses.
