Among reports filed with police:

200 Glynn Isles: A foursome of delinquents poured out of a taxi cab and dashed for the confines of the Target store before the cabbie could collect his fare. A responding city cop promptly rounded up the incorrigibles, one of whom had the juvenile justice system’s version of an outstanding arrest warrant. Also, the officer learned that three of the kids had starred in an earlier shoplifting episode filmed on location at the Dollar General, where the security cameras are always rolling. The kid who was wanted on the juvenile justice pickup order went to the juvenile detention center. The cops turned the other three troublemakers over to their parents.

217 Merchants Way: A man with a questionable motive was fiddling around with the back of the Reddy ice machine outside A to Z Liquors in the broiling heat of midday in August. The machine caught fire, and he chose that time to make his exit from the premises. Responding police soon caught up to him. They asked him why he set the ice machine on fire. You don’t want to know. The 44-year-old fellow went to jail, charged with third degree arson.
