Friday, May 6
* Aaron Joel Lumen was taken
into custody for domestic
harassment
following
a
disturbance on Crooks Creek
Road. Lumen stated he was
having a problem with his dog
and that he’s going to sue the
sheriff’s office for harassment.
* A suspicious man with a
backpack was walking on
Hayes Hill and acting strange,
but when deputies drove
through the area, there was no
problem observed.
* At 10:46 a.m. a man in a
dark-colored car parked at
Rough and Ready Creek Park
then got out and walked off
into the woods naked. He must
be rough and ready to stroll
naked through poison oak and
blackberry bushes.
* The sheriff’s office is
developing a plan to address
the issue of camping on county
land behind St. Matthias
Episcopal Church.
* Jamie Ericsson, an ex-student
at IVHS, has been trespassed
from that location.
* Reaching out to touch
someone with his Air Touch
Communication’cell phone, a
guy is making obscene phone
calls to a woman on W. Watkins
Street. Law enforcement
officers are attempting to ID
the owner of the cell phone and
pursue harassment charges.
* Four park visitors on Reeves
Creek Road complained about
a blonde female in a black
Suburban who was driving
very erratically through the
park, speeding around Lake
Selmac and doing donuts in
the parking lot in the early
morning hours.
* A runaway juvenile with a
pierced lip, wearing a brown
jacket, was located at Kerby
High Pines trailer park and
transported back home.
* Someone entered a pump
house without permission,
cutting locks to gain entry,
then cut pipes and removed
the pump valued at $350. The
thief then replaced the broken
lock with a new one.
Saturday, May 7
* Ten people were fighting and
throwing punches in a “major
fight” just after midnight in
the parking lot of a drinking
establishment,
according
to a 911 caller. When law
enforcement called to check,
an uncooperative woman
answered and said there were
no problems. One patron had a
black eye and minor cut to his
face, but he declined medical
treatment and said he fell down
and that is how he obtained
injuries.
* Six or seven guys were
listening to loud music and
smoking marijuana at Lake
Selmac until 2:18 a.m. when
they were asked to shut it
down for the night. All camp
sites were quiet upon law
enforcement arrival.
* A 14-month-old child was
at first believed to have a head
injury, due to her altered mental
status. She was lethargic, had a
103-degree fever, fluid coming
from ear and sporadic eye
movement. The child might
have meningitis.
* Robert Alvin Althoff, 88,
passed away in the 200 block
of Whispering Pines Lane.
* A woman requested an
Amber Alert for a horse trailer
with California plates that
was removing horses from the
2200 block of Harbeck Road.
The would-be horse rustler
turned out to be under written
contract to care for the horses,
which were underweight and
in need of food so he retrieved
them and was en route to the
Grange for necessary supplies.
Sunday, May 8
* After being bitten on the leg
by a medium-sized dog in the
200 block of Honeybee Lane,
a woman told animal control
officer that she went walking
out of her back gate and she
was confronted by the dog.
She said she tried yelling to
get the dog away and also tried
kicking the dog to get it away.
But she was close enough to
her house and got inside the
gate before the dog could get
to her.
* While a man on Chapman
Creek Road was outside
burning brush, he heard a
gunshot go off very close and
a bullet hit approximately
two feet away from his feet.
He showed deputies the area
where the incident occurred,
then seemed comforted to hear
that nothing seemed to indicate
anything did occur.
* A woman walking down
Forest Creek Road said a
man came out of woods and
screamed he was going to
come down and kill her with a
gun. He then offered her a gun
so they could have a shootout.
Investigation determined the
incident was unfounded as
a crime and it appears to be
mutual dispute over dogs.
Both parties were counseled
over their behavior.
*
Despite
photographed
injuries including a bite
mark on her back, a woman
continues to love her husband.
She did speak with a women’s
crisis line, but refused to
provide information on the
assault, stating she does not
remember what happened. The
argument occurred in a house
where all the mirrors and a lot
of glass was broken, including
a broken bong on the front
porch which was disposed of.
* Awaking to a black mass
“busting against” the back
door just after midnight, Danny
Nichols saw a large bear trying
to get into the laundry room
area of his house in the 2600
block of Caves Hwy. Deputies
were unable to locate the
hungry bruin.
Wednesday, May 11
* Covered in and out with
dried mud and dirt, a stolen
vehicle was found off Laurel
Road on a dirt road near IVHS.
Jerry’s Towing removed the
vehicle, which was hung up
in brush, 150 yards down the
bank. Although the plates were
gone, the vehicle Tag RTL247
was previously entered in
TOWS file on May 11.
* The Smith & Wesson Model
19 gun reported stolen from
the 8800 block of Deer Creek
Road was located, and had
been misplaced instead of
stolen.
* A man in the 4800 block of
Holland Loop Road received
a phone call from a restricted
number, asking if he had
puppies for sale. When he
said he didn’t have puppies
for sale, the caller threatened
him by saying he was a liar, he
didn’t like liars and was going
to kill the man. Wouldn’t it
make more sense to just call
the pound and adopt a dog
from there?
* Extremely loud alarms
sounded at 9 p.m. near the
Secret Trailer Park in the 900
block of Caves Hwy.
Thursday, May 12
* A woman in the 100 block
of Hathaway Drive phoned
911 to make a report because
someone stole her pliers.

Caves Ave. at 6:11 p.m.
* A white Ford Ranger with
a canopy and a possibly

swerving southbound at Hayes
Hill summit. No license plate
was available, and OSP were
unable to locate the vehicle.
* Kassondra Johnson was
arrested for driving under the
influence of intoxicants with a
reported blood alcohol content
of .30 at Holland Loop Road at
Caves Hwy. at 9:25 p.m.
Friday, May 13
* No units were available at
2:31 a.m. when a business
owner in the 200 block of S.
Redwood Hwy. was concerned
about being broken into again
due to prior incidents. The
store owner stated there were
a lot of people walking around
in the area from the bars.
* A tree was leaning and
getting ready to fall across
the road in the 7200 block of
Rockydale Road, before the
6-mile marker on right side
heading towards Waldo. Public
works stated that the tree is
hung up in another tree, and
since it doesn’t appear the tree
will fall across the roadway at
this time, they will work on
tree removal next week. Tree
falling on Takilma Time.
* A woman at W. Lister Street
and N. Kerby Ave. was warned
about yelling and glaring every
time a certain female drove by
her house to get to work.
* Elizabeth Meghan Keagy
was arrested on charges of first
degree burglary for stealing
a Sony Playstation 3 and a
laptop valued at $3,000.
* Music from an unidentified
address in the 400 block of
Brittany Lane was so loud
that it was said to be shaking
another house. When warned
about the noise ordinance and
asked to turn the music down,
they agreed to shut if off even
though it was only 6:52 p.m.
* There was a Honda Accord in
the lane of traffic at Lakeshore
Drive and Redwood Hwy. at
8:14 p.m., and it was unclear if
there was a medical problem,
because the guy in the driver’s
seat had not moved. Thomas
Joseph Wilson, Jr. was arrested,
charged with driving under the
influence of intoxicants with a
reported blood alcohol content
of .11 percdent.
* Tina Campbell was warned
regarding trespass and stalking
at 3:29 p.m.
* An all-white Nissan
Pathfinder was reportedly
swerving all over the roadway
starting at milepost 17 on
Redwood Hwy. The licence
plate did not match the vehicle
description; it came back as
totaled and expired.
