- A Continental Heights man told police that a woman wasn’t supposed to be at the apartments there. Police told him that she was allowed to be there if a resident invited her there. They didn’t find any records of her being banned from the property. The man also said the woman knew who had stolen his vehicle previously and wanted police to talk to her. Police didn’t speak to her and were unable to contact an apartment manager.

3/13 - A woman on D Street admitted to pushing a child with her fingertips. The children had been hitting a log with a golf club on nearby property and the woman had confronted the children. The mother of the children said the woman also pushed her in the chest. She told police she would try to get a protection order between her family and the woman.

3/14 - A purse was found at Pole Park and logged as found property by police. The purse did contain an ID, as well as drug paraphernalia and a crystal-like substance that were destroyed.
