On September 9, 2017 at 12:00 p.m. a male and female party came to the police station to speak with Officer Rosenberg about a neighbor’s children who have repeatedly walked through their property to get to their own home.  They indicated they have spoken with the children’s parents to request that the children not cut through their property to get to their own home and these requests to address the issue have not been successful.  They indicated they were going to attempt to speak to them again, but wanted the ongoing issue documented in case the issue is not addressed and the children continue to trespass on their property.

On September 9, 2017 at 11:00 p.m. Officer Knapp was dispatched to a noise complaint on Shaw Road.  Officers who responded found that there was a large party occurring at a residence.  The person throwing the party had rented the house for the evening through AirBnB.  They were advised of the noise complaint and to keep the patrons inside the house and keep the noise down.  They were advised if we had to return due to another noise complaint they would all be asked to leave.  At 1:15 a.m. another noise complaint was received and officers responded.  The renter was advised the party needed to be terminated.  She complied and all of the guests left the area.
