Monday, May 3, 2010

By Diane Hettrick

Another week of mayhem in Shoreline. Ok, pretty boring as real crime goes, but a lot of job variety for our police officers. As always, the categories are mine and if you don't understand them, have your mother explain them to you.

Shoreline Police blotter 4-7 to 4-14-2010

Monday, April 19, 2010

By Diane Hettrick
(The categories and comments are mine.)
One week in the life of Shoreline police officers.

This is just cruel

4-7……167xx 8th NE. Car parked in front of house. Someone used a screwdriver to pry off the side window, then removed the steering column to take the stereo plus an iPod. They left the screwdriver on the passenger’s seat. (Not much of a trade)

People who are poor and hungry will risk their freedom for…


4-7……15332 Aurora, Safeway. Stole beer.

4-9……17545 Aurora, Doug’s Cadillac. Someone went through a hole in the fence and used a jack and cement blocks to hold the car so s/he could steal all four tires. (Probably a guy, but I was having an attack of political correctness.)

4-9……2xx N 171st , auto supply store. “Suspicious circumstances.” (Probably nothing. Auto supply stores don’t carry beer, cigarettes, or tires. Wait! Tires! Wonder if they were packing cement blocks?)

4-12…..17202 15th NE, Safeway. Uniformed cap was entering the store and saw a juvenile and then an adult leaving in a hurry. They stole a can of Redi-Whip.


Poor impulse control

4-8……15230 15th NE, Fircrest. Someone pulled the fire alarm.

4-10…..8xx N 161st Pl, Forest Villa. Neighbor dispute. “Made gesture” (Ah, the old one-finger salute. Now that’s worth calling the cops for.)

4-10.....19303 Fremont, Cristwood. Employee’s jacket stolen. (tsk. Can’t trust anyone.)

4-12…..23xx NW 197th. Duplex. Landlord occupies one unit. Fought with tenant and tenant threatened him. (Sounds more serious than the one-fingered salute.)


What part of “No” do you not understand?

4-8……172xx Aurora. Guy was bailed out of Sno County jail. Within an hour he had called and gone to the home of a woman who had a restraining order against him. (which was probably why he was in jail in the first place)

They know if you’ve been bad or good


4-8……192xx 15th NW. Traffic stop. Driving With License Revoked.

4-8……153xx 15th NE. No ID, no valid license, served with warrant.

4-12…..170xx Aurora. Car with tabs that expired 9/26/2008 and an expired trip permit. (Eventually you have to license the vehicle. Reminds me of all those people I worked with who continued to drive with out of state plates. At least they were paid up somewhere.)

Falling down drunk

4-8……N 200th / Ashworth, transit center. Incoherent drunk, unable to stand.

4-13…..14500 15th NE, Goodwill. Someone passed a fake $100 bill.


Not even safe to cross the street


4-8……N 160th / Aurora. Driver took corner so fast, he nearly hit people in the crosswalk. Words were exchanged and driver pointed a gun at the pedestrians.


Good Job!

4-9……Shoreline police station. Citizen turned in old ammo for disposal.


Cars, cars, cars … bikes

4-10…..15030 Aurora, Goldie’s. Someone broke into parked car, stole money.

4-10……16505 5th NE, Crest Theatre. Parking lot. Went through many of the cars, broke windows, stole iPod. (You know, you may as well leave your car unlocked. It’s really a hassle to replace those windows.)

4-12…..N 163rd and Meridian. Abandoned car.

4-13…..191xx 3rd NW. Motorcycle parked in driveway. Stole license plate.

4-13…..170xx 13th NE. Car prowl. Parked in driveway. Took things from car. (I just checked my glove box for the first time in years and they’d be doing me a favor if they took a few things. What are these people keeping in their cars that thieves would want, besides iPods and GPS?)


Family drama

4-11…..193xx 2nd NW. Brother takes care of elderly mom. Other brother came over and custodial brother asked him to help give mom a bath. They got in a fistfight.


I believe the children are our future…

4-8……173xx Fremont. Shorewood student on lunch break, coming back from store, was knocked down to steal his $3.

4-12…..153xx Interlake N. Kellogg student was reported to have a gun. Report was made by the parent of another student who had been in a fight with that student.

4-12…..Einstein principal reported that a student said he was punched while riding his bike home from school.

4-12…..157xx Wallingford. Burglar came in at night through an unlocked garage door and stole items from home.

4-13…..15507 Westminster, Midnight Sun Tan. Two Black males entered shop. One distracted the manager while the other took the till and the manager’s wallet. (And your first clue that something wasn’t quite right was…?)


Mental

4-13…..148xx Interlake. Woman threatening to hurt herself with a knife. (How do the cops handle something like this? Unpredictable, unstable person with knife in hand. Do they teach that at the Police Academy?)

4-14…..17001 Aurora, Parker’s. Guy brought a backpack into the casino. When he was told that was not allowed, he told them there was a bomb in the backpack. (Now there's an adrenalin rush.)

4-3            15230 Aurora, liquor store. A customer got a bottle of Bacardi 151 rum and announced to the clerk that he was going to open it and drink it. He opened it in the middle of the store and started drinking it. He had not paid for it. (You think maybe he started drinking before he came in the store?)

Public eyes are watching you.

Shoreline Police Blotter 3-4 to 3-23-2010

Tuesday, March 30, 2010

By Diane Hettrick, ShorelineAreaNews.com

This Blotter is long because it's almost three weeks worth - please don't think that the crime rate has increased. It does catch us up to life in the fast lane, so starting next week we'll do one week at a time. I'll bet you've figured out by now that the cops don't write the headers for these, although I'm sure they are tempted sometimes. And now for the police activity:

Mental and/or Homeless

3-8      Shoreline Library. “Floyd” has been banished from the library for one year. (As soon as we changed the involuntary commitment laws, the downtown library became a very scary place. Suburban cities aren’t immune.)

3-9      Top Foods, 175th and Midvale. “Dale” was arrested for trespass when he refused to leave the store. (Wonder if he lived there when it was open 24 hours?)

3-9      Starbucks Gateway, 18336 Midvale. Removed person and filed trespass charges.

3-10    Shoreline Community College. Edmonds Police notified Shoreline that a mentally ill man was making threats against his mother who works at SCC.

3-12     24xx NW 197th. Indecent phone calls to man, his sister, and his friend.

3-13     Aurora Village parking lot. A bunch of guys were moved out for trespass and loitering.

3-17     Shoreline Bank employees frightened by man’s loud, angry yelling – in person and on the phone.

3-18     Liquor store at Gateway, 183xx Aurora. Robbery with a knife, stole alcohol. (See full article in the ShorelineAreaNews)


Twilight Zone

3-9      King County 911 Dispatch got a cell phone call. A woman was moaning, then the call was disconnected. Police used mapping systems, IRIS, and Linx to identify the owner of the number and the owner’s address at 25x NW 194th Pl. Police arrived but no one was found.

3-11    Calvary Mission, 15211 15th NE. Someone called 911 and hung up. Police call back got voice mail.

3-11    180xx Aurora. Driver was southbound on Aurora. Heard a loud noise and his windshield cracked.


Punks

3-11     Highland Ice Arena, 18005 Aurora, discovered new graffiti tags. The tagger used a signature he had used in the past, when he was arrested and charged by police. Police arrested him again and filed new charges. He was apparently accompanied by other taggers, including one not yet caught who uses the tag “Alter” or “HBC”.

3-13     Richmond Beach Park and Ride. Spray paint and paint pen graffiti.

3-14     185xx 3rd NW. BMW in owner’s driveway. Windshield shattered.

3-16     Hamlin Park. Public art work (brand new!) vandalized.

3-17     Paramount Park skateboard park. Tagger got sign and other places. “Alter”, “Sound” “211PK”.

3-18     Top Foods, 175th & Midvale N. Cut fence wire to get through, apparently just to cover the wall with graffiti, but while they were there, decided to cut the above ground Comcast cable.

3-18     Shorecrest High School. Backpack with laptop computer stolen from classroom while victim was working at the student store.

3-19     11xx NE 155th. Someone threw water bottles through the rear windows of car.
