Police Beat

I think police beat is often very, very odd. Just thought I'd share a few gems. (Please notice these are all within a month!)

Feb. 24: Police received a call about a possible fight in progress in lot 16. Upon arrival, five individuals were separated. One was uncooperative. The two parties were arguing over which party deserved the parking stall. One party claimed his wife was sick and pregnant, but the other party wouldn’t give in. Police found another parking stall for the party.

Feb. 14: A concerned mother called because her 13-year-old daughter was threatening her with a stick. Officers responded and mediated the situation.

Feb. 2: A couple called saying they wanted to get rid of a human skull they had kept for years. The skull had been passed down through three family generations, and the couple’s son kept it in his room until he recently moved out. Lieutenant Arnold Lemmon said the skull was probably excavated back in the 1960s in Arizona. Police took the skull and turn it over to the state archeological department. Lemmon said the couple did the right thing to call police because throwing away a human skull is a felony.

These are from February 2010.
