Police Blotter: Larceny and Damage to Vehicles

A man reported someone tried to steal his catalytic converter from his truck from the Silver Lake Road car pool lot, police said.

Chief Rick Aro said the man reported he parked his 2004 Chevy Silverado truck in the lot on March 14 and returned on March 19 and found someone had attempted to steal the converter through the exhaust, which was partially removed.

Aro said the officer on scene determined the suspect was likely interrupted or scared off during the incident.

Larceny from a vehicle

Police are investigating a larceny from a vehicle that occurred at on March 20.

Aro said a woman had parked her car at the school around 10 p.m., while traveling with friends in another vehicle for the night. Aro said she reported that she returned to the car around 1:40 a.m. and found the driver’s side window smashed out and three purses missing.

Police have no suspects at this time, but did receive some surveillance footage from Fenton High School and are continuing to investigate the incident.

 Slashed tires

Police were dispatched to the 800 block of North Leroy Street because of a destruction of property complaint on March 19, Aro said.

Aro said a resident reported he had two vehicles parked behind his apartment and found one tire on each vehicle had been slashed.

He told police he had made a complaint about a loud party at an adjacent apartment the previous evening, Aro said.

Aro said an officer contacted the resident, who admitted to having a party, which included several people she was not familiar with, and got out of control, therefore she felt responsible for the incident and agreed to compensate the man for the replacement of the tires that Aro valued at $175.
