Friday, October 7, 2011
A woman reported a vehicle
was following her as she drove through town on 4th Avenue Monday. The vehicle
was behind her and kept revving the engine as if to tell her to speed up. She
said after she turned off the road, she saw the vehicle racing another car. An
officer located the vehicles near Toddler Park. The 20 year old male driver
said he was not revving his engine at the woman, he just had a bad muffler. He
was given a warning about his driving habits.
It was reported that the
concession stand at Pride Park was broken into.
An officer was dispatched to
a residence on South Tomahawk Avenue about a fight between two men. When the
officer arrived he observed the fight in the living room, and broke it up. A 20
year old male took off running, and was apprehended after a foot chase. He was
arrested for obstruction/resisting, placed on a probation hold and transferred
to the Lincoln County Jail. The 18 year old he was fighting with did not want
to press charges, however it was determined the two were consuming alcohol,
along with another 20 year old male. All three were issued underage alcohol
consumption citations.

On Wednesday, a 22 year old
female reported an argument with her 24 year old boyfriend. She said the

retaliated and broke her laptop. There were no physical or verbal threats made.
The woman later called back to report that the man had opened the door
forcefully putting a hole in the apartment wall.
