You know I told you last post that I said the word, one of many which is frowned upon, and almost a ritual to avoid, and well it happened. Within a matter of about 20 minutes I ended up with 3 calls for service.
1st - caller is reporting that she heard someone messing around and beating on something. She was inside a fenced in area smoking and heard it, so she yelled out and asked them what they were doing as she was attempting to see what they were doing and she saw someone run to a vehicle. They jumped into a vehicle and left. The caller did not know what they were messing with or if they had tampered with anything. My officer responds and is unable to locate any vehicle matching the description given.
2nd - Caller is reporting that he got a call from a renter that about 2 hours prior someone he had told he would take some wood from, hauled the base of a tree over and dumped it in the ditch and then attempted to push it off the road with a van. He is upset because they rutted up the yard, and the tree might still partially be in the roadway. He had told them he would take the wood but had no way to cut it up, and the guy who was giving it to him had told him they were not in any hurry, just a few days ago. Well I guess he was in a hurry to get rid of it. Advised an officer so they could respond to see if they could assist in anyway.
3rd call is a female who had already alerted us hours ago that her husband was at a family members house around the corner and drunk on whiskey. She wanted us to be aware that she is concerned he will be a problem later but when she called there was not an issue. Well now there is an issue, he has returned home and is drunk and screaming. She cannot have this sort of situation because she has neighbors. The officer arrives and he leaves on foot refusing a ride. He goes back and talks to the caller who advises that she is concerned about her safety with him in the condition he is. Then oddly enough she tells the officer, if he comes back and is causing a disturbance she is willing to file charges against him for the issues he causes.
And now not our call but another agency locally has a report of a missing juvenile. Apparently the 16 year old daughter came home late, and when mother went to check on her an hour later, she is not in her room and her window is pushed out. We shall see how that pans out.
