[Monrovia Police activities from the Police Department's Neighborhood Watch Report for April 25-28. - Brad Haugaard]
Following are the weekend's highlighted issues and events.
Suspicious Person
April 25 at 5:30 p.m., an officer was dispatched to a park in the 300 block of South Myrtle on the report of a male subject in black clothes, a ski mask, a hat and knee pads; the subject was running in front of the library with what appeared to be some type of firearm. Upon arrival, police found a male subject, wearing paintball attire and carrying an Airsoft gun. He told police he was training for an upcoming paintball event. The subject was informed of the fear he had caused to citizens in the park and was advised to choose a more appropriate place to train for his event.
Hit & Run Traffic Collision / Driving Under the Influence
April 25 at 6:23 p.m., police responded to a traffic collision in the area of Mayflower and Colorado. An adult female subject was driving west on Colorado and struck a vehicle as she turned north onto Mayflower. The driver failed to stop and continued north on Mayflower. She then attempted to turn west onto Linwood and drove through a chain-link fence, coming to rest in the front yard of a Monrovia residence. Officers arrived and determined the driver had been driving while under the influence of alcohol.
The driver was uncooperative and refused to submit to any sobriety or chemical tests. She was transported to a hospital as a precaution, where she continued to be uncooperative with hospital staff, so the extent of her injuries could not be determined; no visible injuries could be seen. The report will be completed and a verified complaint will be filed.
Residential Burglary
April 25 at 11:14 p.m., a residential burglary was reported in the 400 block of East Greystone. The victim left her residence at 6:00 p.m. and returned at 11:10 p.m. She entered her residence and noticed the three bedrooms had been ransacked. The suspect(s) made entry through an unlocked living room window. The loss appears to be cash and jewelry. The investigation is continuing.
Alarm Activation / Burglary
April 27 at 6:35 a.m., officers responded to an alarm activation at an elementary school in the 200 block of Jasmine Avenue. The officers found an open window and could see inside the room; it did not appear to be ransacked. The interior of the school was checked, but no suspect(s) were located. A night janitor arrived on scene and said it did not appear that anything had been taken, but a request will be made to school officials to verify any possible loss. Investigation continuing.
Warrant – Suspect Arrested
April 27 at 10:25 p.m., an officer was traveling south on Myrtle and observed an adult female pedestrian crossing Myrtle, at Olive, against the red light. The officer honked his horn to get the subject out of the intersection. She looked toward the officer and made an obscene hand gesture. She appeared surprised when the emergency lights were activated, and she later stated she was unaware that the vehicle was a police vehicle. She was stopped once she crossed the street. A computer check revealed she had an outstanding, felony no-bail warrant; she was arrested for the warrant.
