| Published February 15th, 2012 | Orinda Police Blotter | | | | Tipsy on the tatami, 1/31/12 A fifty-something woman at a local Japanese restaurant showed signs of inebriation. An Orinda police officer observed her to be unsteady of gait, and having watery eyes, slow and slurred speech and possessing a strong odor of alcohol. She laughed, she cried, she called the police officer an unprintable name ...and refused to take a preliminary alcohol screening test. In spite of that, and because of her two outstanding warrants specifying no alcohol be consumed, she was arrested and taken to Martinez Detention Facility.
...and that's all there is to report at press deadline from Orinda P.D. "It's been a good week [with no crime reports written]," says Chief Jeffrey Jennings. He balances this week's low crime reports with the prior week, which showed eight arrests. "This is a great, safe city," Jennings said. He reminded residents to look out for each other, keep their eyes open and consult the police even when they think it's "silly stuff."
