– Just after midnight, police responded to a call of a domestic incident involving a knife. After arriving at the Favro Street location, officers determined there was probable cause to arrest one of the involved parties for fourth-degree assault/domestic violence and, additionally, for exposing children to domestic violence. The individual was arrested and booked in the Issaquah jail.

– Officers took a phone report regarding a possible violation of a restraining order. The caller said her ex-husband had gone onto her property, thus violating the order. Police determined the ex-husband was legally allowed on the property so there was no violation.

Jan. 7

– Officers were charged with delivering legal papers to someone at a 224th Avenue Southeast address. The papers were served and two guns were removed from the residence.

Jan. 5

– A shoplifter took a package of Hostess cupcakes from a city business, prompting a morning call to police.
