Property damage: A woman told an officer she believes her sister vandalized her vehicle during the early morning hours. The complainant said she has had no contact with her sister since February 2025 and that she was in town visiting her mother when her sister began texting family members, calling them vulgar names and “liars” for no apparent reason.
On this morning, the complainant went outside to find all the windows of her vehicle spray painted with colorful metaphors and, consistent with the text messages from the day before, the word “liar.”
A neighbor had provided the victim with doorbell camera footage that shows someone walking onto her mother’s property and, although the image is not definitive, she believes it shows her sister. She said she wishes to press charges, and the case was forwarded to the State Attorney’s Office for review.

Battery: Claiming to having been cheated on by her boyfriend, who also happened to have just fired her from her job at a downtown restaurant, a woman was seated on a street side bench when contact was made by an officer.
The woman said after the unpleasant exchange with her ex inside the restaurant, she flipped a table and stormed out. The investigating officer then made phone contact with the ex-boyfriend who said the woman became belligerent over a break-up that occurred about a year ago. He added the woman punched him in the face during the incident.
The man mentioned he was at another downtown establishment at the time and a second officer was dispatched to check for injuries he may have sustained, of which there were none. Because he declined to press charges against the woman, she was not charged with a crime.
7:51 a.m., 2200 block of North Lemon Avenue
Dispute: Claiming a woman in another apartment kicked her 3-month-old Shih Tzu puppy in the face, a woman told an officer she was on her way to her apartment after taking her two dogs for a walk when the alleged incident occurred. Video footage of the encounter was supplied by the complainant, which showed a contrasting account.
The complainant’s dogs were not leashed, she told the officer, because she was training them to climb the stairs. The video shows both pooches attempted to enter another apartment after the door had been opened and the female occupant attempted to prevent them from going inside.
Rather than kicking the dogs, the video shows the neighbor using her leg and foot to gently nudged them away from her open door.
The subject said she did not kick the dogs and had no intent to harm the little Shih Tzu. She further advised she has had ongoing issues with the complainant and believes she is trying to incite trouble and have her evicted. The officer advised her to do her best to stay away from her and avoid further conflict. The dog was not injured and not charged with trespassing, therefore no crime occurred.
1:16 a.m., 1400 block of Main Street
Disturbance: Flagged down by security at a downtown club an officer encountered a female complainant — who appeared to be intoxicated — alleging a male patron spat upon her. She was asked if she wished to file a complaint, at first declining because she was camera shy of the officer’s activated body camera. She attempted to cover the camera, insisting she was being humiliated by its use.
She eventually relented and went on to weave a tale of sitting at the bar when a male subject “with tattoos and glasses” according to the report, began winking at her. She said he then left the bar, then a woman in a red dress arrived and was “holding her hostage” by grabbing her arms and asking what she said to her brother. She said she never spoke to the man and did nothing wrong.
The complainant then alleged she was spit on by the woman before responding with a retaliatory salivary salvo of her own. When asked if the man had spit on her, the complainant then mentioned she did not know who, but someone had spit in her face. She also mentioned the man was arguing with the red dress-clad woman and that he was “most likely a drug dealer,” according to the report. She also said she had not been drinking, but a bartender reported otherwise.
A club security guard said the incident began when he heard his boss yelling, went upstairs and saw the complainant fighting with the woman in the red dress and that a male was also involved.
Video footage of the incident was obtained, which shows the complainant sitting at the bar with a friend while the man in question sat with a woman nearby. The video shows the complainant leaning out of her seat, pointing in the direction of the male while laughing. As she leaves her seat she continues to laugh at the man, who then appears to gesture for someone to come to him. The woman in the red dress then appears, he points in the direction of the complainant and together they approach her.
That’s when the alleged spitting ensues as the complainant appears to lunge toward the man as if spitting on him. In response, his head appears to snap in the same direction as if struck by an unknown object. Red dress then engages the complainant as another female emerges, unsuccessfully attempting to keep them separated. Security subsequently intervenes and all parties are compelled to take it to the street.
The report notes the officer did not witness the complainant wiping her face after claiming assault by saliva although it does appear she launched the first, and perhaps only, salvo in the skirmish. The entire incident was determined to be mutual combat and no further action was taken.
