Public Record

I always love reading the Police Blotter in our local newspaper. Not because there might be someone I know but because they are often so darn funny. Here are just a few of today's entries.

Public Record Docket
From the public records of the Findlay Police Department and the Hancock County Sheriff's Office:

Police Department

A mother and son in the 600 block of East Lincoln Street argued over the son's late sleeping habits and lack of employment Wednesday evening.

A man was arrested for domestic violence after biting a romantic interest in the hand while the couple drove in the 1700 block of Lima Avenue on Wednesday evening.

A 17-year-old was arrested for theft at the Trenton Avenue BP gas station Wednesday afternoon. The juvenile was nabbed when a clerk noted him leaving the premises with “a bulge about the size of a 20-ounce Mountain Dew” in his pants.

Sheriff's Office

Deputies were called to rural Arlington on Aug. 20 in response to a loose bull.

A Van Buren woman reported receiving threatening phone calls and text messages from an ex-roommate Tuesday. One text message threatened “to round” the woman.

A Findlay woman “had second thoughts” after giving her husband's credit card number to a man over the telephone Tuesday. The man was asking that $110 be sent to India in exchange for $5,000 in federal stimulus money.
