Lafayette Police Blotter
What Point Friendship? 10/23/2011 Someone visiting a friend upset a second visitor (the friend's friend) who pulled a knife and threatened the first friend. The friend of a friend is apparently not so friendly. The knife-wielder slipped away before police arrived.

Catch and Release, 10/28/11 Lafayette police arrested a 23-year old male from Los Angeles on a Santa Clara County warrant, and then released him.

A Dollar for your Thoughts, 10/11/2011 Who loans a rental car to his ex-girlfriend? Someone Thrifty? Or on a Budget? Apparently he never considered his Enterprising ex would take the vehicle without his permission. Now that just Hertz.

Officers responding found no way to ID the suitcase or its owner, so they carted it away and put it into lockup.
