Orinda Police Blotter

Car Fire, 2/16/11 A car parked inside a garage on Great Oak Circle inexplicably caught on fire. There was nothing suspicious according to the police; they suspected something mechanical or electrical may have started the blaze. Damage was contained to the garage.

Parked while drunk, 2/10/11 An attendant on duty at the Shell station was troubled when a gentleman in a parked car could not be woken up, even after several attempts. Police arrived and saw the fellow asleep in the driver's seat and also attempted to wake him up - initially he didn't respond. Alert cops could smell alcohol in the vehicle and noticed the subject's watery eyes. The fellow finally got up to perform several field sobriety tests. He flunked, so he was arrested for driving under the influence and taken to the Martinez Detention Facility. Presumably he drove himself to the gas station - hence the D.U.I.

Remodel burglary, 2/07/11 An unknown suspect forced entry into a home being remodeled on Southwood Drive. Tools valued at $1,500 were permanently borrowed. Sadly no one saw or heard anything. Perhaps the contractor consoled himself with that old folksong, "If I had a hammer."
