Weird vandalism 7/25/16: Someone apparently sprayed a large amount of water in a Moraga Way business through a window screen located above the front door of an unnamed business, leaving a large puddle of water, dust and dirt inside the shop. At the time it was unclear if any of the mess caused permanent damage.
Alleged loud party 7/24/16: A neighbor reported an alleged loud party on Sandringham Drive North, and said this was an ongoing problem. Cops came and spoke with an adult female resident who said she had a few guests in the backyard. Guests came inside, music was turned off, so the cops determined "there was no party being held."
Guy sleeping in car 7/23/16: A fellow returned to his vehicle after working his shift at Saint Mary's College, and found a mystery man sleeping in his car around 9 p.m. Surprised, the car owner asked the fellow to get out. The sleeper said he had too much to drink at his class reunion, so he climbed in the car and passed out. Nice-guy SMC employee didn't want to make a citizen's arrest. The subject waited at the guard shack until an Uber driver picked him up. At least he didn't attempt to drive.
Stuff stolen from inside car 7/22/16: A Parson Brown Court resident reported the theft of undisclosed property from a vehicle. Sometime during the night a number of items were removed from his unlocked car. No suspects or leads at this time. A lesson learned.
Car vandalized 7/21/16: While at a meeting at the Moraga Valley Presbyterian Church, an estimated $3,000 in damage was made to a car parked in the lot. This happened at a church?
Mystery box in roadway 7/21/16: A metal box containing business papers and U.S. currency fell onto the roadway near the intersection of Moraga Way and Moraga Road around 11 a.m. The box was picked up by two subjects who were seen placing the box next to an open business. Employees of the business watched the box until the delivery service returned a few minutes later. Upon further inspection later that afternoon, the delivery service discovered that the box had been opened and the money removed. Instead of pennies from heaven, dollars from box? Isn't virtue supposed to be its own reward?
