'Several drug dealers': Weed Eater sold
8 p.m. — First Block of Undermount Path West. Larceny. A female homeowner stated that on March 5 at about 8 p.m., she let her male friend into her garage to get some gasoline for his vehicle.
While the suspect was getting the gas, the woman went inside to use the restroom. After returning, she noticed the garage door was closing and the suspect was leaving. The woman also stated the suspect asked if he could pawn her Weed Eater, but that she said no.
On March 10, the woman looked at the Weed Eater in her garage and noticed it wasn’t hers. She also noticed the edger and a small white television were missing.
The woman believes that while she was in the bathroom, the suspect took the items and sold them for drugs. The woman did not see the suspect take the items, but he was the only person to have access to her garage since March 5. The woman stated that she had been in contact with several drug dealers who told her that the suspect had sold the items. The woman declined to provide any more information on the subjects.
The woman could not provide serial numbers of any of the items taken. She stated the items were worth a total of $750.
Red flag up?
8:09 p.m. — First Block of Pinelynn Drive. Larceny. A woman said that a male was outside her home banging on her garage. The woman advised that the suspect was drunk and cursing at her. The suspect then left the area.
As the deputy was gathering information about the incident, the woman noticed her mailbox was missing and that the suspect must have taken it. The post was drilled into the dirt, but the box itself was missing.
At about 9:26 p.m., the deputy made contact with the suspect at his home. The mailbox was later returned to the woman and reinstalled to the best of the deputy's ability.
