Woman Threatened on El Nido Ranch Road, 9/8/10 - A woman reported she had been confronted in a threatening and violent manner on El Nido Ranch Road east of Sunny Hills Road. The woman attempted to drive away to avoid the confrontation but was unable to do so. When officers made contact with the subject, he said he was upset that the woman had parked behind him. When officers explained it was public property, the man was unable to comprehend that he had to share public areas. Although the woman insisted on being anonymous out of fear for her family's safety, the report was taken due to the nature of the public nuisance. What an understatement.
Spray Paint Bandits, 9/12/10 - A Reliez Valley Road resident reported that a number of signs and fences had been vandalized in the 1600-1800 blocks of Reliez Valley Road. The unknown vandals spray-painted the signs and fences with black and green paint in the middle of the night of September 11. The stretch of road extends from the top of the hill near the Silver Dell subdivision to the Baywood subdivision. Oh, what could the profile of a Saturday night suburban vandal be? Think, think, think...
