Jefferson County Sheriff's Log | The footprint of a suspect

Posted

The Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office received 263 calls for service between Saturday, April 15 and Friday, April 21. Below are selected reports.

At 5:32 p.m. Sunday, April 16 in Brinnon, a door to a garage was found open.

Multiple items were missing, and other things were piled up and staged in a way that indicated the burglar was going to return.

A shoe print and fingerprints from a potential suspect were found in a detached shed on the property.

A 1950s-era vehicle was in the area at the time, and the driver had been asking people for gasoline.

At 1:23 p.m. Monday, April 17 in
Port Ludlow, a caller reported an item that had been ordered online was stolen off the porch.

The item was valued at $21.

At 8:40 a.m. Tuesday, April 18 in Port Hadlock, a caller said she was having ongoing issues with another woman.

She said she talked to a man who was out in the street to see how he was doing and gave him a hug.

The caller said the man was never in her house. She also said a woman then came out of a nearby motor home and began yelling obscenities at her.

The caller’s son then stood on the front porch, holding a kitchen knife, and had some things of his own to shout.

A deputy responded and reviewed video from a doorbell camera, and advised the caller that she could get an anti-harassment order from the court if she thought it was necessary.

The deputy spoke with the son and he agreed to stay with his father in Port Ludlow.

The other woman was not in her motor home when the deputy attempted contact.

She eventually talked to law enforcement, but her version of events was somewhat different. She said the woman’s son had threatened to shoot them, but that account was not backed up by what was on the doorbell video.

Both sides of the dispute were advised to keep to themselves and contact law enforcement if things got out of hand again.
