Lake Forest Park Police Blotter 10-25 to 10-31-2010

Tuesday, November 9, 2010

By Diane Hettrick – Trends and Categories are mine – the rest is compliments the fine citizens (and passers-by) of LFP as investigated by LFP Police

Trends: A boring week in LFP. Some loud parties, some dumb teen-aged boys doing stupid things. The closest thing to pizzazz was the couple headed into the bushes in the park. I did like the idea of wiring the cash drawer to the alarm system and that seems to have worked out nicely. As for the rest – step it up LFP! Let’s have some newsworthy mischief , like burglars with a car full of loot who run out of gas in the next block, or a thief who steals a big screen TV and tries to get away on a unicycle. Make my day.

Loud parties, they say
10-25…36xx NE 155, apartments. 2nd call reporting ongoing problem with bass speakers from neighboring apartment. Police couldn’t hear noise in hallway and only faintly from caller’s apartment. Informed caller it was not a police matter and to talk to the manager.
10-30…169xx 26 NE. Big, loud party.
10-31…54xx NE 100 Pl. Report of loud party. Police did area check and all was quiet.
10-31…Ballinger Estates. Loud party. Police asked guy to turn down music and he did. Turned it back up after police left.

We deny everything
10-26…184xx Ballinger, Market. Teen boys hanging out around outside of store. Ran when approached.
10-26…184xx Ballinger, Market. Teen boys back, made purchase. They said they weren’t suspicious.
10-27…35 NE/Ballinger. Report of juvenile males on corner yelling at cars and being generally obnoxious. Contacted juveniles, they deny yelling at cars. One has an outstanding warrant and was arrested.
10-30…LFP. Two juveniles yelling. Police arrived. One was incoherent, wouldn’t follow directions, had to be restrained. Had taken six hits of acid. Lying on ground and rambling. Taken to Stevens Hospital.

Somewhat interesting
10-29…196xx 47 NE. Police stopped a couple who were headed into the bushes in park. Said no privacy at their homes.
10-26…5am 16827 Bothell Wy, Wired Nick’s Espresso. There was an alarm on the cash register. Three people picked up.

Mom doesn’t answer the phone
10-25…36xx NE 145. Neighbor worried about elderly woman next door who hasn’t been seen for several days and doesn’t answer her phone. Police were going to check but caller was able to reach neighbor’s son and found out she had been in the hospital for several days.
10-28…162xx 37 NE. Colorado man can’t reach his 93 year old mom. Police found she was having problems with her phone line, so they contacted Qwest.

Alarms
10-26…Barbara’s in the Park, Towne Centre. Alarm. All seems secure but owner asked for a police walk-through. Might be faulty door, will ask management to replace it.
10-27…30xx NE 201 Pl. House-sitter tripped basement and front door motion sensors.

26xx NE 195. Four girls walking on Ballinger were followed by male in car. They got scared, ran into residential area and called 911.

Poor puppy – and nice people
10-29…178xx Ballinger. Dog ran into traffic, hit by truck. Drivers stopped and took dog to vet, will live but probably lose a leg.

What are we going to do with these guys when no one will pick them up?

Shoreline Police Blotter 10-15 to 10-26

Wednesday, November 3, 2010

By Diane Hettrick – Categories, comments, and Trends are mine – the reports are from the police.

Trends: Kids behaving badly seems to be the trend of the week. And the whores are moving back onto our part of Aurora. The various police departments just shoo them from one section of 99 to another.

Monday, October 25, 2010


By Diane Hettrick. Categories and Trends are mine. Reports are from the police. Who could make this stuff up?

Trends: Juvenile runaways have been increasing since school started. It could be that the marginal kids are finding each other at school, or it could be that school is the final stresser to push them over the edge and out of the door.

Shoreline Police Blotter 9-29 to 10-13-2010

Sunday, October 17, 2010


By Diane Hettrick. Categories, comments, and Trends are mine. Reports are from the police. Who could make this stuff up?

Trends: Car Prowls. If your car is not locked in a garage, you will eventually be hit by people who specialize in going through cars. It happens in every neighborhood. If your car is locked, they will simply pick up the nearest rock and smash the passenger window. If you have left anything valuable in your car, it will be gone. They seem to favor GPS systems, iPods and chargers, and your stash of parking change. Sometimes they hit pay dirt with wallets, purses, tools, golf clubs and other valuable items. If they get your checks and license, credit/debit cards, you will spend the next six months straightening out your finances.
