Selected reports from the Bainbridge Island Police Department blotter.
SATURDAY, OCT. 24
2:10 p.m. A 45-year-old man called police to his Lewis Place NW residence. Kids, he said, had been coming up to his door and either knocking or ringing the bell and then running away for the last two years. When either the resident or his wife would come to the door, the kids would either be gone or they would be seen running away. He said they now have a vehicle, a dark colored “Jetta” type, that they use for their escape.
He said he did not know who might be responsible specifically, but said that in the past his house had been egged and also toilet papered.
Police advised the man to immediately call 911 the next time such an incident occurred.
4:22 p.m. A 50-year-old Bainbridge man reported that his ex-wife was not following the parenting plan that they have in place regarding their teenage son. The man said he had not seen his son for a few months.
Police advised the man to contact his attorney.
The man wanted the incident documented and asked that police call his ex-wife. Police did so and got the woman’s voicemail and left a message informing her of her ex-husband’s complaint.
5:40 p.m. A 56-year-old man driving a 2003 Ford Explorer made a U-turn while traveling east on Bjune Drive and a 62-year-old woman driving a 2015 Mitsubishi Outlander westward was unable to stop before colliding into him. The man was gone when police arrived, so a card was left on his vehicle asking him to call police. He called the next day and his account of the crash was the same as the other driver, saying it had been his fault. He gave insurance information to the police over the phone.
FRIDAY, OCT. 23
3 p.m. Police were dispatched to Rhododendron Apartments where an intoxicated 52-year-old man was being verbal with a tenant and everybody else.
The man was shouting, cursing and threatening to beat up people.
One responding officer knew that the man had a misdemeanor warrant for malicious mischief. The warrant was confirmed and then, as the man was becoming even louder and more belligerent, police arrested him on the warrant.
He was transported to Kitsap County Jail.
