A and I rode together two nights and I was solo the other three
nights. We had a bunch of units on the nights that we did not need
them. Figures. On Monday, I was by myself. We had plenty of units in the district. I
checked by with J on family disturbance in government housing.
According to the mother, one of her sons had been causing a
disturbance. He left before we arrived, perfect solution. A and I rode together on Tuesday. Our first call was disturbance with
a neighbor. The complainant told us that this has been a long and
on-going problem. Her neighbor does not work, smokes dope, makes a lot
of noise, pees off of his balcony, leaves trash everywhere, and
threatens her. He is not a good neighbor. The female complainant said
that he put his hands on her tonight, by pushing her. She said that
she was not sure what her options were. We explained them to her, but
she did not want any police action yet. She needed to consult her
boyfriend. We told her to call us back after the consult if she needed
us. Our last call was a minor accident. We arrived to find a vehicle
blocking two lanes of a major street. Immediately after we arrived, a
thin and wiry young black male with braids, the driver of the vehicle,
walked up and started talking. He was talking fast and not making much
sense. I tried to ask him questions, but he just continued on with his
narrative. We found a witness that said the black male was driving at
a high rate of speed. He came around the curve and rear ended another
vehicle and then slammed into a curb. The contact with the curb broke
off a wheel. The witness then told us that after exchanging
information with the thin black male, the other driver left. The thin
black male walked over and now said that he had been maced by the
other driver even though he was not crying and his nose was not
running. Then he went on to say that $700 had been stolen from him. He
was all over the place. We did an accident report and then completed
an offense report because of all of his extemporaneous accusations. A and I rode together again on Wednesday. There were not very many
units in the district. Our first call was a simple disturbance with
the valet at a mexican restaurant. A customer came out of the
restaurant and his vehicle had dead battery. The customer tried to
blame the valet. By the time we arrived, the restaurant and the
customer had settled the disturbance. Later, we were dispatched to a suspicious person. The resident said
that a young white female with red hair was trying to get into his
backdoor. We checked the backyard and checked all of the nearby
properties but did not find her. Before we arrived, she had climbed up
on top of the resident's car port and put her foot through the tin
which brought some debris down on top of a vehicle. There was no
damage, but it was strange. On our last call, we were forced to check by with D on a major
accident to provide traffic control. We were to take R's place since
he was early side and it was time for him to go home. The accident
involved a vehicle that struck a power pole causing a power line to
hang lower over the road. R was worried that a passing 18 wheeler
would hit the wire. It looked high enough to me, but we sat there
until we were relieved by day shift. Thursday night was very uneventful. I was by myself and had to sit at
a busy intersection for two hours monitoring the red light. I guess
there have been numerous accidents at the intersection. I can't think
of another reason why they would assign a unit there for two hours.
There were no accidents while I was there. On Friday I was solo again as the print unit. They would not let A and
I ride together. The sergeant said there would not be enough units if
we rode together, even though other people were riding together. It
was strange. I checked by with S on a domestic disturbance. When he arrived, a
topless female ran out to him. Then a man covered in tattoos came out
and handed S a small baggie of cocaine saying that it was the female's
powder. Not the way most disturbance calls start. He put the female
into the backseat for safe keeping while he tried to figure out what
was going on. I arrived and spoke with a witness. The witness said
that the topless female was an alcoholic who was also addicted to
cocaine. She had a 4 month old baby with the owner of the house. The
topless female was claiming that she had been assaulted by her husband
and that she was covered in bruises. We did not see any bruises, and S
had seen most of her. She was very excitable and kept banging around
in the backseat and yelling. She ended up going to jail for public
intoxication. She completely freaked out when Skeet went to put her in
hand cuffs. I had to grab an arm while he grabbed the other. Lots of
drama. S gathered all of the information and wrote a very detailed
report. That concludes another week on patrol.
