Marin 911: Going Porky Pig in the park

April 20, 2021 by Marin Leave a Comment

Fairfax

April 1 -7, 2021

Porky Pig: A person was reported hiding in the bushes at Peri Park. He was an older man with white long hair and was said to be full-on Porky Pig — no pants. Upon arrival the man did have pants. 

Suspended License: A traffic stop at 12:45 a.m. April 1 resulted in a citation of a driver driving on a suspended license. The officer was not fooled, or amused.

Unwanted People: A man and a woman were seen out back at Victory Village. Citizen thought they might be thiefs. Service rendered.

Tree: A tree fell at Care Meridian on Sir Francis Drake Boulevard. Blocking the trail. Owner notified. 

No Masks: 13 people were seen protesting at Parkade on Broadway Road. They were reported to be maskless. Gone when police arrived.

Crowbar Selfie: A man stood in front of a local burger joint taking a picture of himself holding the crowbar. Bystanders thought that was low enough of an alarm bar to call the cops.

No Realtor: A citizen on Scenic Road watched a man crawl through a window at a vacant house. She told police that she was fairly sure “he is not a real estate agent.” Service provided. 

Sausalito

April 8 – 12, 2021

Reckless Driving: An “older man” driving a silver Chrysler sedan was seen driving erratically on Bridgeway (that is more erratically than the other drivers on Sausalito’s main drag). Police stopped the driver, made sure he wasn’t impaired, and advised him of his bad driving. 

Stolen Plates: The city’s automated license plate reader detected a missing front plate on a red pick-up truck. Police stopped the driver and informed of the problem. 

No Mask: A citizen called the cops on a neighbor sitting in a chair on Cloud View Road without a mask. Seriously, people?

Bocce Balls: A homeless person one taco short of a combination plate confronted Bocce Ball players and presented himself as a general arse, yelling at the players. Police caught up to the man and gave him a little talking to about civil interaction with other people. He’s had several other complaints.

Toe Stubbed: A 60-ish man with a grey ponytail stubbed his toe on the ground on Bridgeway and a passerby chuckled at the mishap. The ponytail man then let loose with a slew of racial slurs about Koreans. 

Hot Dog: A citizen reported “a hot dog in a car” on El Portal. Of course it wasn’t a” hot dog” hot dog. It was a hot dog “breathing heavily.” Police checked it out and determined the animal appeared in good spirits, but contacted the Sausalito Yacht Club and informed them of the complaint.

Good Karma: A citizen found a black purse and turned it into police who then returned it to its owner. The woman was “extremely grateful” to get the purse back. 

Loud Party: A loud party took place on Glen Drive on April 10. Police contacted the homeowner and “told to quiet down.”

Lost Hiker: Police received a call from a lost hiker on the Bobcat and Cloudview trails. Little water, no food and incorrect clothing. Call revered to park ranger for help.
