Suspicious circumstances, 5/10/12 A 14-year-old girl walking home after school became suspicious when a red car passed her, then made a u-turn and tried to talk to her. She sought the shelter of a neighbor's porch. The girl said there were two men in the car. The driver was described as having "spiked" dark hair; the passenger wore his hair in short dreadlocks. "Hi, how are you doing?" said Dread-guy. They didn't stick around.
Grass makes you sleepy, 5/7/12 Grazing in the grass was no gas for one 36-year- old male, whom Orinda police found catching 40 winks alongside Camino Pablo. Police also found the man, who was on probation in Alameda County, in possession of a prescription drug. The man was searched, transported to Martinez Detention Facility and booked.
Cat burglar? More like a clumsy dog... 5/7/2012 The fog may come in on little cat feet, but one burglar was anything but cat-like. An Orinda Sleepy Hollow resident was awakened in the middle of the night after hearing a crash and sounds of movement in his house. He found a male burglar lying face down inside his home next to a broken window. The burglar fled, leaving his screwdriver, wire cutters and baseball cap behind. Police brought a K-9 in to search the area, but couldn't find him.
Warrant time, various dates: Three warrant arrests are on the books; the first on 5/7 when a 32-year-old male driver was pulled over. He had an outstanding warrant issued in LA and earned a visit to Martinez Detention Facility. Number two was a 56-year-old male who on 5/10 was arrested and booked into Martinez Detention Facility. The last guy got lucky - a 26-year-old male was cited and released after a traffic stop 5/15.
