Law roundup: Man is on a butter knife-edge

Two residents who normally sat together at breakfast got into an argument. One of the men chastised the other for his behavior. His compatriot reportedly responded by picking up a butter knife and pointing it at him, telling him he was going to use it on him. The victim wanted the incident logged as information and said the staff at the home would handle the problem. The man reportedly was not known for buttering people up but rather for being rude and aggressive toward staff and was “going through a lot.”  

Officers ticketed a vehicle for double parking and ticketed a van, car, truck and SUV with 72-hour notices to move. Two of the vehicles had flat tires and the SUV was missing a tire.  

Someone was concerned about a crying and screaming woman’s well-being and asked officers to check on her.  

A man, who had reportedly been kicked off a property once before, was spotted sitting on a picnic table. He was moved along and told not to return.  

A woman allegedly went to pick up her children when she spotted her husband’s ex at the scene, taking a video of her and saying things she was unable to understand.   

Someone reportedly sat on their friend’s phone and accidentally called 911. 

Someone's blue SUV was hit in front of their residence and the culprit left without reporting it.  

Officers returned a call from a man with questions about leash laws in city parks. The man, who sounded inebriated, reportedly just wanted to vent about dogs being off-leash and asked police to continue checking the area for violators.  

A woman, whose speech was allegedly slurred, refused to leave a location. When she eventually did, she drove away in a black SUV.  

A woman out walking her dog reported an unoccupied SUV “filled with junk” pulled onto the “dirt area” of the lawn of an apartment building. She was concerned that it was abandoned or stolen. The vehicle was parked on private property and posed no hazards to traffic.
