Vandalism. A towing company is seeking to press charges after one of its signs was torn down by a group of teens near a local gym.
One of the company's employees reported the incident to police, saying he caught the teens "horsing around" with the sign. He showed police a video of their actions, according to a police report, but the video didn't show the teens taking down the sign from the tree it had been posted on. Police were able to identify one of the teens, who said they found the sign and decided to play around with it.
The teen said he didn't know any of the others in the video. The cost of the damage is $12.

Drunk person. A local chain restaurant declined to press charges on a woman who racked up a $77 bill in alcoholic drinks and became intoxicated.

Police decided to transport her to the hospital, but while being transported, she attempted to bite a paramedic.
A spit sock was placed over her head, according to police. The woman was turned over to hospital staff.
