Reports taken from March 25 to April 6
Good ol’ fashioned fun
A Mount Pleasant woman on March 30 told town police that her neighbor yelled at her children and was acting “irrational” while her children were “catching frogs” and playing in a local retention pond. And people wonder why kids these days don’t go outside and play anymore.
Yeah, that’s a doozy
A North Charleston woman on April 6 told city police that a nearby strip club stole her money (about $700). A quick investigation revealed the woman got high on mushrooms and fell off the stage earlier. Staff told police that getting “intoxicated” and losing her things is “normal behavior” for her. No word on her supposed $700.
What a bargain
A downtown Charleston woman told police on March 25 that a remodeling company was selling items they removed from her home two years ago on Facebook Marketplace. Police contacted the company, which denied it was selling her belongings, but a third party reportedly went through the items, finding personal documents and the ashes of the woman’s father. Another person’s trash, we suppose. The investigation is ongoing.
Well … was he right?
Charleston police on March 26 spoke to a West Ashley man about the volume of his gospel music after neighbors complained about it being too loud too early in the morning. The man asked if the officer had a measuring device for the music’s volume — the officer apparently did not — but he received a citation nonetheless. The man reportedly never turned down the music.
Shouldn’t be too hard
A downtown woman on March 29 told Charleston police that someone stole her Toyota Prius the night before from her home on America Street. The vehicle is described as having paint peeling from the hood and a bumper sticker that reads, “Honk if you’re letting the soft animal of your body love what it loves.” Well, we have to imagine that narrows the search.
