Police Blotter: ‘Oh, that? That’s heroin, officer’

In need of redemption

July 24 – A vehicle prowler broke into a car and stole the vehicle’s registration, the vehicle’s insurance, and a Bible.

Police were dispatched at 10:02 a.m. to the 11400 block of 51st Avenue, where the victim stated he forgot to lock the door to his car. While working inside of a store, he was informed a white female suspect was attempting to enter his vehicle.

The officer was able to retrieve a short video clip via another employee’s iPhone of the possible suspect walking away from the Target parking lot.

That’s heroin, I’m sorry

July 19 – A vehicle was pulled over for displaying a fake three-day trip permit on the back window. The officer then saw a small blue and yellow container, suspected of containing narcotics. After the man agreed to let the officers search his vehicle, the officers discovered a small white bag that was knotted. When asked what it was, the driver dropped his chin to his chest and mumbled “F***. That’s heroin. I’m sorry.”

Police pulled over the vehicle at 11:57 p.m. heading westbound on State Route 16, where the man admitted to “selling rocks.” The officer asked the man to clarify what that meant, and the driver said, “I mean I sell heroin, man.”

The heroin and drugs were seized, along with the fake trip permit. The report was forward to the felony prosecutor for review.
