May 1—A blue truck was allegedly leaking gas in front of a store, and a passerby told police they saw a man with a gas can by the vehicle and took pictures of him, thinking he might be stealing the gas. Officers received information from an associated call about a man working on a car. The hazardous spill, which was less than 10 gallons of gas, was mitigated. Officers made contact with a man they identified from the pictures and notified the jail.
A man with "pointed fingernails" and a walking stick allegedly kept talking to children playing tennis matches at the location, telling them that they knew him while touching them on the arm or the back and trying to hug them. The man reportedly kept walking back-and-forth from the tennis courts and a pond several times. The person making the report wished the man would stay away because he made the children uncomfortable.
A man alleged his neighbor was harassing him by way of calling law enforcement with complaints and yet made another complaint after his daughter installed a security camera pointed in the vicinity of a sidewalk and the neighbor's porch, noting that he thought it activated by motion-sensor and he didn't have access to the footage. He also contended the neighbor was "always out filming him" and predicted they would be doing so when he went out to do some yard work. Officers discussed how "generic filming" doesn't break any laws, and it should be fine to keep the camera up, unless there was something in his restraining order that specified otherwise.
