Last night at approximately 8:35, Officer Brian Poynor was dispatched to a shoplifter call at a business in the 4700 block of Southwest Drive. His investigation revealed that a female suspect had concealed several items of jewelry after removing and discarding the tags from the jewelry. The suspect then went to the register and only paid for some clothing items. The suspect left the store without paying for the jewelry and was contacted by a loss prevention employee. Approximately $164 dollars in jewelry was recovered. The suspect was arrested for removal of writing and theft.
Last night at approximately 9:45, Officer Kimberly Scalf responded to a disturbance call in the 1500 block of Portland Avenue. APD was advised that a female suspect was highly intoxicated and had passed out, and then attempted to enter a neighbor's home. During this investigation, the female suspect came out of her residence and began yelling disparaging and lewd remarks in the presence of other adults and children. The suspect was also intoxicated. She was arrested for disorderly conduct.
