February 4 Police responded to a welfare check in front of a business in the 2900 block of Oakwood Drive for two individuals asleep in a motor vehicle that was running. When the police arrived, they found the two occupants asleep and a strong odor of alcohol could be smelled around the vehicle. The individual in the driver’s seat was suspected to be impaired and subjected to field sobriety tests and was later placed under arrest for having physical control of a motor vehicle. He did submit to a breath test and blew a .09 and was cited for physical control and released to a sober individual.
February 4 Two employees of a fast-food restaurant in the 1900 block of State Road reported an unknown female entered the store, threw food and had brandished a firearm after her food order was made incorrectly. The female had pulled the gun out and had it pointing at the ground for the duration, but she did state “don’t make me have to use this.” There are possible leads on the suspect. Both employees wish to press charges and the owner wants the suspect trespassed.
