The Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office received 626 calls for service between Friday, April 21 and Friday, May 5. Below are selected reports.
At 12:34 a.m. Friday, April 21 in Quilcene, an anonymous caller reported a case of animal abuse. A dog had been left tied up outside, with no visible food, water, or shelter.
An animal control officer responded but no one was home. The officer made plans for additional patrols in the area.
At 6:37 p.m. Saturday, April 22 in Port Hadlock, a resident near West Kinkaid Street and Ninth Avenue complained of noise in the neighborhood.
The resident said loud music or a heavy bass beat could be heard for the last two hours.
A deputy checked the area but did not hear anything.
The resident called back and said the noise was continuing.
A deputy determined the noise was not loud and could only be heard intermittently. The sound was not loud enough to violate the county’s noise ordinance.
The deputy ultimately located a girl who said she had been watching a movie. She agreed to turn down the volume.
At 12:06 p.m. Saturday, April 22 in Brinnon, an unwanted person was reported in the 500 block of Pleasant Harbor Road.
The caller said a large vessel ran aground on her property, and she was concerned the boat may have damaged her dock and might be leaking fuel. She wanted the boat removed and was concerned it would further damage her property.
A deputy contacted the owner of the boat, who said there had been a hydraulic problem with the vessel’s steering and it was beached so that repairs could be made.
There was no noticeable damage to the dock or the beach.
It was determined that it would take several hours for the tide to come in for the vessel to be able to float again.
A deputy determined no crime had been committed.
At 7:18 a.m. Sunday, April 23 in Nordland, a resident on Griffith Point Road reported getting threats on social media.
A deputy investigated and determined there was harassment, but it had not risen to a criminal level.
The deputy advised the caller to block the person on social media and petition the court for an anti-harassment order if he felt it was necessary.
