BIKE THEFT: At approximately 4:45 p.m. June 26, an officer was dispatched to the police department for the report of a missing mountain bike. The victim reported his bike was last seen at approximately 6 p.m. June 25, when it was locked to a staircase. Early the next morning, he discovered it was missing and so was the cable and lock. There was no serial number or suspect information available.

DOMESTIC DISPUTE: At approximately 10:50 p.m. June 26, two officers were dispatched to a residence on 187th Avenue East for the report of a domestic dispute. The complainant called 911 to report his intoxicated girlfriend broke his cell phone during a fight. The argument began when the girlfriend requested the complainant pick her up at a friend’s house because she was too drunk to drive. The complainant refused to do so and though they both admit to partaking in a heated argument, officers determined no crime was committed. A domestic dispute was recorded and both parties agreed to remain in separate areas of the residence for the remainder of the evening.

THAT’S MY BEER: At approximately 1:30 a.m. June 27, two officers were dispatched to an interrupted residential burglary on 68th Street East. The victims reported waking up to two large crashes outside the home. Upon investigation, the man of the house discovered an intruder in the yard, who fled on foot after claiming the beer he tried stealing was his in the first place. The suspect was reported to be a white male, about 16-years old with shaggy brown hair. A case number was issued but no further leads were currently available.

KEEP ON ROLLIN’: At approximately 8 a.m. June 27, a resident of 174th Avenue East, called to report someone had rolled a tire into his garage door, causing significant damage. Two more tires were found at neighboring homes. It appeared someone had rolled the tires down the hill from Sky Island Drive. A case number was provided.

STOLEN PLATE: At approximately 9 a.m. June 27, a person called to report the license plate had been stolen from their camping trailer. A Motor Vehicle Theft Report was filled out and the reporting person was advised to contact Department of Licensing to replace the plate.

VANDALISM: Shortly after 12:30 p.m. June 28, a report of vandalism to a vehicle came in. The vehicle was parked at a home on North Island Drive. The passenger side rear window shattered when the door was opened, but it appeared the vandal did not gain entry to the vehicle, as nothing was missing. A case number was provided.

SUSPENDED LICENSE: On routine patrol at approximately 6:30 p.m. June 28, an officer observed what he recognized as a previous shoplifter travelling westbound on SR 410. A records check showed the driver was operating the vehicle under a suspended license, so the officer pulled him over. The driver also lacked valid proof of insurance. The driver was booked into Enumclaw Jail, cited for driving with a suspended license and issued a mandatory court date. The vehicle was impounded.

RECOVERED VEHICLE: At almost 1 p.m. June 29, a Safeway employee called to report their vehicle had been stolen from the parking lot. A BLPD motor vehicle theft report was filed but due to a lack of security cameras in the lot, no surveillance images were available. Shortly after, it was discovered the vehicle had already been queried by Puyallup dispatch and recovered by Pierce County Sheriff’s Office. The reporting person declined print analysis, as he wanted the vehicle back as soon as possible so he could drive to and from work.

INTIMIDATING POLICE: At about 4:30 p.m. June 29, an officer was approached by several citizens at Allen Yorke Park who were concerned about a disorderly subject. The subject was observed yelling, punching, picking fights and running into a metal storage container on the west side of the park. The officer approached the subject, who yelled obscenities at him when asked to stop. The subject appeared to be intoxicated and during a pat down, began yelling at the officer again. His behavior was erratic and bizarre; he yelled outrageous claims and angry slurs at the officer. One witness said he saw the subject yelling at a child, “What are you looking at, do you want some?” The subject was arrested for disorderly conduct and from the back of the patrol car, continued threatening the officers and the department as a whole.

COLLISION: Shortly after 2 a.m. June 30, an officer was heading eastbound on SR 410 when he came across a single vehicle collision. A vehicle traveling eastbound crashed into and was stuck on top of the three foot median. Two people were observed outside the vehicle, swaying and crying with watery, bloodshot eyes. The driver refused a series of field sobriety tests as well as a blood draw. He was arrested for DUI and a warrant was issued for his blood. He complained of back pain, so he was released to Central Pierce Fire & Rescue for evaluation. En-route to Tacoma General Hospital, the suspect became belligerent; he attempted to punch two Central Pierce medics. He was charged with two counts of attempted assault in the third degree, DUI, reckless endangerment and failure to transfer title within 45 days — the vehicle he crashed was recently purchased and the title had not yet been properly transferred.

NARCOTICS: Just before 6 p.m. June 30, an officer was dispatched to a residence for a complaint of disorderly conduct. The complainant reported his wife and her friends were doing drugs in the home. The call was disconnected as yelling began in the background. When the officer arrived on scene, the complainant provided proof of drug paraphernalia and what appeared to be a small amount of crystal meth. The complainant reported his wife was home all day with their kids and the drugs were sitting out on the counter. The wife claimed the drugs belonged to her friends but her friends said the narcotics didn’t belong to them. The narcotics were booked into property at the police department and are to be destroyed. The officer remained on scene to ensure all subjects separated to avoid escalation of the argument and no further action was taken.
