The Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office received 270 calls for service between Saturday, Oct. 29 and Friday, Nov. 4. Below are selected reports.

At noon Monday, Oct. 31 in Port Ludlow, a resident reported the theft of a catalytic converter.

The resident said the converter was taken off a 2003 Honda Odyssey. The caller left the vehicle parked the night before at 7 p.m. but returned to find the vehicle elevated and sitting atop on a round of firewood.

At 1:23 p.m. Monday, Oct. 31 in Port Ludlow, a man was at the express health clinic to report a dog bite.

The man said it was the third time he had been bitten by his brother’s dog.

He said the dog was sitting on the front porch, but when he approached the animal, the dog bit him on a thumb.

The man needed a single stitch to close the wound.

At 3:33 p.m. Monday, Oct. 31 in Quilcene, a resident reported having problems with the live-in assistant he had hired.

The situation was complicated, he said.

The man said the woman appeared to have psychological issues and he now feels unsafe when she is around.

The caller said he called to explain the hardship involved with his living situation, and wanted to know how to deal with his roommate because he feels threatened by her.

The caller was advised about getting a protection order from the court or the option of starting the eviction process.

At 3:10 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 1, a visitor to the sheriff’s office wanted to talk about being harassed by a neighbor in Brinnon.

When a deputy was called to the sheriff’s office lobby to speak to the woman, she was gone.

A deputy left a message for the woman but she did not return the call.
