| Published October 26th, 2011 | Orinda Police Blotter | | | | When thieves come knocking at your door, 10-11-2011 After returning from school, a family member found her front door damaged. There were scuff marks where the would-be burglar's shoe met the door, and pry marks around the frame. The good news was that the door remained locked, so nothing was stolen from the house. The not-so good news was that the thief caused $350 in damage to the door.
In the bag, 10-12-2011 Orinda Police stopped a vehicle and found reason to search both car and driver. They discovered one packet of marijuana, containing less than an ounce, in his pocket. That gives a whole 'nother meaning to "Glad Bags." He was cited and released.
Weed like to card you, 10-13-2011 Police made a traffic stop and found the 34-year old male driver in a smelly car. That certain je ne sais quoi smell-- could it be marijuana? Yes, it could! Could the driver produce a medical marijuana card? Well, he did have one once, but it wasn't current. He took a second trip... to Martinez for booking.
And speaking of under the influence, 10/13/2011 Maybe it was the full moon two nights earlier, but Orinda police stopped a 29 year old male driver and discovered...wait for it...he was under the influence of alcohol. This student of the bottle flunked his field sobriety test and blew a .11. He opted for the blood sample test back at headquarters, was arrested and booked at Martinez Detention Facility.
