One of my favorite things to do is read the Police Blotter. When I was in high school, I attempted to get in the police blotter by, I guess, one would consider calling it, defacing private property. I never did anything truly horrible; basically, Christie, Greg and my dear friend Gant would steal work horses and leave them on people's lawns. We would find a location under construction, pile the horses in the back of Greg's parent's mini van and then arrange them on the front lawn of the person we had picked that week. Occasionally, we would also fork someone's lawn - you know, take a bunch of plastic forks and stick them in the ground. We usually put them on the lawn's of people we knew. Only one time did we get caught by a neighbor, but we got out of there just in time.

Anyway, here are some Police Blotter highlights from the Beverly Press.

March 6

At 9:12pm, an unknown suspect stole a wallet left on a cashier counter of a business in the 7100 block of Santa Monica. The wallet contained identification, credit cards and approx. $60 cash.

March 7

An unknown suspect ransacked a business office in the 8700 block of Santa Monica at 7:30 am. It was unknown what was stolen from the location.

March 8

At 6:00 pm, an unknown suspect ransacked a business in the 1000 block of Fairfax.

March 11

At 3:40am, an unknown caucasian male suspect was arrested for arson, after being observed setting a fire in a trash bin in the 8800 block of Sunset. (Jen's note: How could he still be unknown if he was arrested?)

At 3:45 pm, an unknown suspect vandalized a vehicle near the corner of Masselin and 6th.

An unknown suspect stole a bag containing two diamond rings from a hotel pool in the 8400 block of Sunset at 4:00pm. The loss was estimated at $6,130.

Apparently a lot of ransacking happens in the Beverly area.

More later.
