Selected reports from the Bainbridge Island Police Department blotter.

FRIDAY, SEPT. 9

6:20 p.m. A 50-year-old woman called police to her High School Road residence after somebody had written “Looney Woman” on her door.

She photographed the graffiti, then cleaned it off.

She said that the day before and again that same day somebody had also entered her car and turned on the dome light, intentionally trying to drain her battery. Nothing else was damaged or disturbed.

The woman claimed both the insidious tampering with her car and the graffiti was the work of a neighbor who had been “grooming her” but was now angry because she’d refused to dog sit.

The woman said she had lost her car keys about a year ago and suspected that her neighbor, or her neighbor’s boyfriend, had found them and were using them to enter her vehicle. She also said she kept a spare home key in her garden, which her neighbor had been “rooting around in” all summer under the guise of helping her to water it, but was actually looking for — and most likely finding — her key.
