WHAT DOG?

ALL IS WELL
10:30 p.m., 500 block of Harbor Cove Circle

CALL YOUR MOTHER
2:41 p.m., 6800 block of Hughes Street
Fraud: A woman called police after receiving a harassing phone call seeking money. The caller, who referred to the woman as “Grandma,’’ said he need $3,000 for bail in Miami. The woman did not provide any personal information and told the caller to call his mother for help and hung up. The man called back and asked “don’t you have that money laying around in your house?” The woman hung up again. Police were unable to track the call because the Caller ID registered all zeroes. The woman was given a case number and advised to not answer calls with such an origin.
