Jefferson County Sheriff's Log | He sounded drunk

Posted

The Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office received 236 calls for service between Friday, May 27 and Saturday, June 4. Below are selected reports.

At 10:14 p.m. Monday, May 30 in Port Hadlock, a dispatcher received a 911 call but no one said anything. Music could be heard in the background.

On a call-back to the number, a man answered the phone and he sounded drunk.

The man said he wanted to talk about politics, but did not want to say his name or give his address. He also became belligerent when the call-taker wouldn’t talk politics.

He hung up the phone but later called back again and refused to answer any questions. He laughed and then hung up the phone.

A deputy responded and had a conversation with the man, and said he could face charges for making non-emergency calls to dispatchers.

The man said he had been drinking at the time.

At 10:55 a.m. Tuesday, May 31 in Port Hadlock, a man said a friend’s son had just came at him with a sword. He said he was also threatened.

The son was still in the house; he went into another bedroom and shut the door.

The caller said he used to live at the home and only went there to get the rest of his things. When he arrived, the son got upset.

The caller said there was an ongoing issue with the son not getting along with others in the home. He said he did not feel threatened and did not want to pursue charges.

Two other people said there had been no sword involved in the dispute.

The parties agreed to stay away from each other until they could get along.

At 9:31 p.m. Tuesday, May 31 in Port Hadlock, a woman said someone might be on her property.

She said motion lights at the residence outside had come on.

A deputy patrolled the area and found nothing amiss.
