Knock knock; who’s there?
1:59 a.m. — First Block of Ivanhoe Drive. Trespassers. The officer responded to a burglary call and found the suspect standing in front of the residence. He placed him in handcuffs and contacted the resident.
The resident said he heard someone rattling the garage door and thought someone was trying to break into the house. He went into the garage and yelled, asking who it was.
The suspect yelled back and said he heard noise coming from the garage and wanted to make sure the residents were OK. The suspect lives two houses down.
The resident said she thinks the suspect wanted to steal hydrocodone.
After being read his Miranda rights, the suspect said he heard a banging from inside the garage and he wondered if something might be wrong.
He said he walked up to the garage and knocked on it.
The resident said there had not been a lot of noise in the garage, but he had gone out to get some wood.
The officer determined he did not have probable cause of arrest so he issued a trespass warning to the suspect and escorted him off the property.

Doesn’t hurt to check
12:38 p.m. — 600 Block of Hand Avenue. Traffic Stop. The officer saw a male go up to a residence known for drug activity and make a hand-to-hand exchange. When the suspect returned to his car, the officer followed him.
The suspect increased speed and began to tailgate the car in front of him. He then made an abrupt turn into a shopping plaza where the officer initiated a traffic stop.
Asked why he was at the residence, he said to loan the occupant $20.
The officer discovered the suspect had a suspended license, and informed him the car would be towed and the contents inventoried.
The suspect became nervous and began reaching around as if searching for something. Asked what he was searching for, he said he wanted to make sure no one had left anything illegal in the car.
The suspect would not stop frantically searching around the car, so he was removed from the car.
An inventory revealed three open beers that were cold and three unused syringes. The suspect said the syringes belonged to someone else.
The suspect was given a citation for driving with a suspended license and a warning for open alcohol containers.
