So I keep up with police reports from back home just to keep an eye out to see if I know anyone that's getting arrested and whatnot, but from time to time there are reports that I just can't help but laugh at. I'll post them here for all to see:

I remember when I was going to school at UPJ. I stored my hockey bag in the public restroom of our dorm hall and it made it into the police blotter as suspicious bag found in public restroom, it was searched nothing found.

Ah, country punks and their proclivity for smashing mailboxes. About 15 years ago, my mother went through something like three or four mailboxes over the course of a year because people kept smashing them or blowing them up with fireworks. I eventually installed a Heavybilt mailbox, which is made of 12-gauge steel and weights darn near 100 lbs. It’s bolted to a four-inch steel pipe that I buried at least five feet in the ground using, IIRC, four or five 40-lb. sacks of cement. Every once in a while, a new oh-so-shallow dent appears on it, typically a mark about the same size a baseball bat might make. I would be willing to bet that, over the years, each kid that took a whack at it immediately regretted doing so, especially if the vehicle he was in was traveling at any significant speed.

SOMEONE CUT A TRAMPOLINE WITH A KNIFE CAUSING EXTENSIVE DAMAGE.
people actually call the police for that sort of stuff?
We had vandals go through our neighborhood, cutting pop up swimming pools, trampolines, and destroying satellite dishes and other property. They found the kids who did it and their families reimbursed us for the damaged items.
Maybe these seem like small items to you but when someone destroys your property, you feel violated and generally want something done about it.
