Fish thrown in front yard

Police responded to an incident on the 200 block of Peachtree Street in reference to fish left in the front yard of a property. The homeowner stated fish had been found in the front yard of the home, and the homeowner believed the culprits to be disgruntled neighbors.

Wallet stolen

Police responded to the 800 block of Dallis St in reference to a stolen wallet Tuesday evening. A light blue, Kate Spade full length wallet valued at $150 was missing when a woman was gathering up her belongings after work. The wallet contained $104 in cash, as well as a driver’s license and Debit Card.

The woman said she received a fraud alert from her bank, stating the debit card had been used at Kroger on Commerce Ave at approximately 5:30 pm to attempt to make a $400

purchase, but the bank declined it and reported it as fraud immediately.

Police issued the woman a case card, then relocated to Kroger on Commerce Ave to attempt to acquire surveillance footage of the offender using the stolen debit card. Upon arrival, police spoke with the manager, who checked all registers for the cancelled transaction, with negative results. The manager stated the online report for the self-checkout registers would be checked the following day, due to it not being available until around 1:30 am each day.
