Miss, get a hold of your wild cat
ENGLEWOOD Nov. 4 A resident in the 400 block of Heather Street reported he was attacked by his neighbor’s cat.
The complainant said the cat got on his front screen door and agitated his dog, and when he opened the door and tried to get it off the door the cat went “crazy.”
He advised it bit his right hand, leaving four puncture wounds and scratched his right forearm before running back to his neighbor’s house. Medics treated the complainant’s injuries.
A witness said the complainant’s daughter returned from walking the dog — a boxer — and that the cat ran after it. The girl was able to get the dog in the house, but the cat jumped on the screen door and hung on until the complainant tried to remove it.
The witness also said the cat went crazy as if it were a wild animal.
The cat’s owner said the animal ran outside when she opened the door. She also said it was 6 months old and had not received any shots.
The owner was advised that the cat needed to be quarantined for 10 days. She was issued a summons for animal restraint.

Did the cop buy the story about the eggs? Not eggsactly

You can’t get beer without an ID, but you can get arrested without an ID
ENGLEWOOD Oct. 21 Police responded to United Dairy Farmers, 485 W. National Road, on a threats complaint but were unable to locate the subjects involved.
The manager advised that two females and one male entered the store and tried to buy beer. The females were told they had to produce ID, per store policy. The three left the store and returned a short time later and the females provided their IDs.
The male then began making threatening comments and also stated, “Next, she will ID me and I’ll slap her and call her stupid.” The clerk again explained it was store policy and asked the subject to leave the store.
The responding officer exited the store for a lock out service in the parking lot and when he returned, the clerk told him a female had called and was en route to the store to speak to a manager about the incident involving her son.
The 17-year-old subject and his mother arrived on scene. His mother became irate and began screaming at the clerk and the officer about the way her son was treated. She told the officer a UDF employee told him to get his “black expletive out of the store!” The woman continued yelling and asked why the employee wasn’t being questioned about the incident.
The teen and his mother were both trespassed from the store.
She was screaming into her cell phone as she left the property. Her son gave the officers the finger as he was walking away, wadded up his trespass warning and threw it up in the air. The officer drove across the parking and tried to stop the subject but he resisted. He was eventually placed in handcuffs and transported to the juvenile detention facility.
