Reports taken from Aug. 28 to Sept. 6
Had it coming
An allegedly drunken man who also apparently soiled himself reportedly screamed obscenities Sept. 4 at a trash can on Savannah Highway and began punching it in front of Charleston police. We’re not sure what the trash can said or did to warrant such a reaction, but we bet it deserved it.
That narrows it down
Mount Pleasant police on Aug. 28 attempted to stop a speeding motorcycle on U.S. Highway 17, saying the rider was traveling in a “reckless manner” and that it was “quickly apparent” that he would not catch up. The officer described the bike as an unknown model, but it “appeared to be a sport bike.” Got it, Sherlock. Put out the BOLO.
Flashin’ the goods
North Charleston police on Sept. 6 pulled over a man for driving with an expired tag. While the man was looking for his vehicle registration, he revealed a black zipper bag with a marijuana leaf printed on it. The officer then searched the vehicle and found a joint, which police said was seized and destroyed. The driver was let off with a warning. Tip: Keep away from the hemp branding.
Should have sent them an invite
Charleston police on Sept. 6 received several complaints about a late-night block party on Allway Street. It ultimately resulted in four incident reports as police attempted multiple times to disperse partygoers. What eventually led to the party settling down: The grill was running out of charcoal.
