12:49 p.m. A woman living on Wood Avenue called police when her niece was out of control. The niece had moved to the area to escape out-of-state legal troubles. The previous night, the niece went out on the town with her cousin and returned home late in the evening. The aunt did not approve and the incident provoked an argument.

The aunt told police that her niece threatened to beat her up.

The niece left the home to get away from the argument when her aunt threw her shoes out the front door after her.

When the niece tried to return, the door would not open so she forced it open, damaging it. She then sat down on a nearby bench, where police found her.

The door was valued at approximately $1,500. The niece was arrested for malicious mischief.
