Reports taken from March 21 to March 30
Wait for the sequel
Charleston police on March 21 arrested a downtown woman described as having blonde hair and wearing all pink after she drunkenly tried to fight a King Street hotel’s staff member. All right, Barbie, we know the momentum from the first movie is dying down, but can’t you hold it together until the sequel, please?
We’ve been on worse
North Charleston police on March 30 arrested a man for failing to stop for emergency lights and possession of a stolen vehicle after a short pursuit of his (allegedly stolen) motorcycle, leaving his female passenger hanging at the end of what appeared to be a pretty lackluster, but not totally bungled, date.
What a mess
A West Ashley woman on March 25 told police she received a call from someone claiming to be “Captain Luke” with the Charleston police, and that he asked for $2,000 for bail money for her nephew. The woman told officers that he sounded “professional” and knew” police words and lingo,” but that he had an “African American dialect” that made him difficult to understand. It goes without saying, of course, “Captain Luke” does not exist.
Finger pointing
A Mount Pleasant woman on March 31 was reportedly responsible for a long line of traffic backed up on Long Point Road after her Tesla battery died in the middle of the roadway. Traffic became so congested that even the tow-truck she called for help was stuck blocks away. Police noted the incident delayed several people’s arrival to Easter church services, as well as a Boone Hall Easter event.
