FRAUD: At 4:33 p.m. March 25, an officer responded to a McGhee Drive residence to take a fraud report. The complainant reported an unknown person used her checking account  to withdraw funds from an ATM March 19. She reported she had gone shopping that day and used her card for a purchase before returning home; she discovered the unauthorized transaction when she checked her balance online. She contacted her bank, which informed her the money had been removed from a Chase Bank ATM in the Bonney Lake city limits. Chase was unable to provide details of the transaction. At all times, the woman had her bank card in her possession. On March 27, the officer followed up with Chase to ask whether video footage of the transaction was available; a manager told the officer the video was with the corporate office.

ASSAULT: At 6 p.m. March 23, an officer was dispatched to a 69th Street East residence in reference to an assault. Dispatch advised the suspect had pushed a woman to the ground and left in his car toward Allan Yorke Park. The complainant reported she heard the suspect arguing with her sister; she said the suspect had a drug addiction. She speculated he wanted a ride to his dealer’s house. She heard items breaking inside the home. She reported the suspect emerged from the home hurling insults. He charged the complainant, knocking her off her feet. The driveway was dirt and the complainant had dirt and debris on the back of her sweatshirt, which the officer photographed for evidence. She advised she would call police if the suspect returned home. The officer filed an assault citation through the municipal court.

GATE CRASHING: At 4:20 p.m. March 25, an officer was dispatched to the 19400 block of 103rd Street East in reference to a reported domestic disturbance. The complainant reported she heard a man and woman arguing, eventually leading to the man speeding off in his truck and driving through a metal gate owned by the city. The officer contacted the woman in the argument. She reported she and the man were sitting in his truck eating when she made a comment about chewing with his mouth open. He became upset and  ordered her to get out of his car; as she did, she hurled a final insult and threw food at the truck. He drove off and through the fence. The officer contacted the man, who confirmed the story. He was cited for malicious mischief and advised to contact the city to make restitution.

SMASH AND GRAB: At 5:40 p.m. March 25, an officer was dispatched to Kid’s Country on South Prairie Road East in reference to a theft from a vehicle. The victim was picking up her nephew when employees informed her a suspect had punched her passenger window and taken her purse from the floor before fleeing in another vehicle. A witness was able to provide a vehicle description and partial license plate number. The officer took an inventory of stolen items and photographed the damage for evidence.

VIOLENT AND UNCOOPERATIVE: At 9:52 a.m. March 30, two officers were called to Lowe’s to handle a shoplifter fighting a loss prevention officer and off-duty National Guardsman. The officers were able to quickly cuff the man and take him into custody, but he was acting strangely. He was flailing his limbs, rolling back his eyes and stating he did not know where he was. East Pierce Fire and Rescue was called to evaluate him. Lowe’s employees reported the man had attempted to carry out a large quantity of items in a trash can. When stopped, he fought back by biting and scratching a loss prevention officer and the guardsman, leaving marks. He had no identification on his person, and gave an identity officers later discovered to be false. Emergency medical personnel reported the man’s seizures could be drugs, or simple deceit. The registration of a cell phone in the man’s possession led police to family members who were able to positively identify him. Charges of theft, assault and obstruction were forwarded to the Pierce County Superior Court prosecutor.
