Selected reports from the Bainbridge Island Police Department blotter.

SATURDAY, MARCH 28

1:34 p.m. Police were called to a Bainbridge home after getting a hang-up phone call where a woman could be heard crying.

When police arrived, they could hear a woman yelling for help from inside the house. An officer then heard people running toward the door, and a woman opened it.

Police determined the situation was actually an ongoing verbal dispute between a 26-year-old man and a 26-year-old woman, both from San Fransisco.

Police attempted to talk to the two, but it was difficult. The woman was hyperventilating, and anytime the man tried to say anything, the woman would begin yelling at him.

Officers asked her several times to stop yelling and to calm down.

The woman would not provide any information to police; the man said they had both come to the island from San Fransisco because they wanted to escape the quarantine.

He said the house where they were staying belonged to his father, and he also told police that he and the woman had been fighting about “stupid things.”

He said an argument ensued after he accidentally stepped on the woman’s bong and broke it when he got out of bed.

He said she then stole his phone, locked herself in the bathroom and broke the phone.

He then said the phone had actually been broken before, but was more broken after the woman grabbed it and went into the bathroom.

The man said the woman called friends to come get her, and that’s who she thought was at the door when she opened it for police.

When the woman gave her side of the story, she said the man had broken her bong on purpose because he was mad at her, so she took his phone as collateral.

She then told police she just wanted to leave.

Meanwhile, police discovered the man had a felony warrant from Boulder, Colorado for failing to appear in court on a drug charge.

While officers waited for Colorado police to confirm the warrant, the woman continued to yell and scream, and kept trying to get the man into another argument.

She was repeatedly told to stop and be quiet.

Police then said she was free to go if she wanted, and she began to gather her belongings.

The man was taken into custody and transported to Kitsap County Jail.

He was admitted to jail, but police in Boulder could not provide a signed warrant, despite multiple requests by local authorities over a span of two hours. The man was then released from custody.

The man called his father for a ride, but soon left the jail on foot.
