INCIDENTS

TWO FORKS ROAD – Complainant said she noticed damage along the passenger side of her vehicle from the rear tire well to the passenger door. She said she does not know when the incident took place or who may have done it. The report is for documentation and insurance purposes.

BRANNEN DRIVE – Complainant said he went to a local store and helped a man whose car had broken down in the parking lot. He purchased some oil for the man’s vehicle and the man told him he had some pine straw to sell. He ordered 50 bales, but when the man showed up at his property, he attempted to offload 140 bales for $1,500. Complainant said he only accepted the 50 bales he ordered. He said he thinks it may have been a scam to get him to buy more bales.

HIGHWAY 80 EAST – Complainant said a man claiming to be from Canada called her and said he received a call from her number. She said she checked her phone log and found no such call, but she apologized to the man for any inconvenience. She said the man became agitated and belligerent, demanding to know why she called, but she had not called. Complainant said she hung up and the man proceeded to call her back 10 times, which she didn’t answer.

TEAL CIRCLE – In responding to reports of a fight and gunshots fired, all parties were separated and referred to Magistrate Court.

OLD REGISTER WAY – Complainant said she was driving with her mother when she needed to turn around. She pulled down a road in the process of turning around and drive away. Shortly afterward, she said she noticed a truck following her. She said when she pulled into her driveway, the truck stopped as well. Complainant said she confronted the man about why he followed her and they argued. He told her she can’t use that road to turn around. She said she wanted the incident documented in case the man approached her again.
