Surely there must be police blotter entries that don't involve alcohol in some manner.

Rev. Paul said...

Yes, but "served court papers", "lost wallet found" and "cited driver for speeding" aren't very entertaining.

Don't forget there ever popular "Burn Permit".

Rev. Paul said...

JayNola, that's a good point. Then there's the "changed batteries in smoke detector" and "responded to alarm at an abandoned building". Also, the ever-popular "callers reported an erratic driver but officers couldn't find anyone."

Seems that the Cape Cheerful premises wasn't so cheerful!

Rev. Paul said...

Chickenmom, I'm guessing they were a lot more cheerful after the two "boors" were removed.
