Jefferson County Sheriff's Log | "Pretty nice" but suspicious

Posted

The Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office received 244 calls for service between Saturday, March 12 and Friday, March 19. Below are selected reports.

At 4:24 p.m. Monday, March 14 in Chimacum, a resident said people had broken into a trailer on their property.

One person was a man in a black sweatshirt and the other interloper was a man in a gray sweatshirt.

When the property owner confronted the pair, one man was holding a brass-and-copper pan.

The duo was last seen walking away on Rhody Drive. One of the pair was blonde and well-known, the caller said, while the other person was “a new guy” dressed in cut-off pants. 

Both men were now carrying sticks.

A deputy contacted the men and detained them until they could be given a trespassing warning. They were both cooperative with law enforcement.

A deputy visited the trailer, and it was determined to be an abandoned junker in the middle of the woods, with all the windows broken out.

At 6:08 p.m. Monday, March 14 in Port Hadlock, a woman said someone came onto her property overnight and cut the locks off of trailers.

A 10-foot black utility trailer was also stolen.

A deputy responded and took a report on the missing trailer. Locks had also been cut off a container but no one was able to enter it.

The victim said she would contact a nearby property that had security cameras.

At 10:18 p.m. Tuesday, March 15 in Chimacum, a woman said her son was scammed out of more than $7,000.

The son’s bank was contacted but the institution wanted a police report made.

At 4:08 p.m. Wednesday, March 16 in Port Ludlow, a caller reported two suspicious vehicles in the neighborhood. 

The two cars looked “pretty nice,” the caller said, but she believed they were involved in a drug deal.

The caller said the drivers took off when she confronted them.

The woman said she spoke with a neighbor, who said she had seen the vehicles previously.
