SL Police Blotter 1-18 to 2-7-2010

Monday, February 15, 2010

By Diane Hettrick
ShorelineAreaNews


Shoreline beat cops reported the following encounters, although not exactly in these words...
Driving While Stupid
Cops can spot an impaired driver. Some of the drivers are drunk, some stoned, and some were just Driving While Guilty – revoked or suspended licenses. Ok, I made up that term. But they weren’t supposed to be driving – there were good reasons why their licenses were revoked. The headlight or the license light out, the expired tabs, speeding, reckless driving, no signals – that’s just confirmation that this is a driver cops want to have an up-close and personal conversation with. 

During this reporting period, cops pulled over and charged 25 drivers. Thirteen of them were in possession of heroin, marijuana, alcohol, rock cocaine, or OxyContin. One of them was arrested for driving drunk, then informed the officer that he had paraphernalia in his pocket.


Speaking of Cars
Three cars were stolen – one from the 193xx block of 1st Ave NW, an 87 Acura Integra from 165xx Densmore, and a 94 Honda Accord from the Linden Apartments. Three stolen cars were abandoned on Shoreline streets – 9xx N 199th, 165xx 27th Ave NE, 185xx 8th NE.

Driving While Really Stupid
The cop pulled over a drunk driver at NE 155 and 1st Ave NE. Driver and passenger refused to cooperate; the driver left the scene and the passenger refused to get out of the car. Both were arrested and booked.

You Thought You Were Safe
1-25     A teenager rode his bike in Hamlin Park and was assaulted by 5 adult males.
1-25     USPS delivered a package to a front porch in the 165xx block of 18th NE. Later, contents of package were stolen.

Graffiti / tagging
The police have arrested 18 suspects for spraying paint on other people’s property, but there are still several out there, including the tagger who signs his work KIDD.

Mental illness
Cops have to deal with the mentally ill on a regular basis. It has to be as dangerous as domestic violence calls because so many of the same elements are present – unpredictability, interference from relatives, confined spaces, in residences, weapons.
1-22     Citizen complained that UPS refused to deliver his package. He became increasingly agitated, yelling at the officer. Officer investigated and found that Seattle police cited the citizen in 2008 for threatening to kill a UPS driver.
