In the Morgan Junction area on Friday, a 45-year-old woman called 911 to report that two people hiding in her apartment were forcing her to “be agitated.” She asked for a psychiatrist before hanging up. When officers arrived, she said she wanted to go to the hospital but that there was no one to care for her dog. Officers could barely open the door because of the garbage stacked in front of it. A large white dog was standing on the couch, and the home smelled of urine and feces. Animal Control took care of the canine and an ambulance transported the woman to Harborview.
A local woman isn't sure why the other female driver was so upset on Tuesday afternoon. All she knows is that the angry, yelling tailgater pulled up on to the right of her car near California and Oregon, followed her into the Post Office parking lot and got out of her car screaming incoherently. The victim (who had three children as passengers) was finally able to get away, but got the license plate and wants to press charges.
Officers arrived at an Admiral address to deal with a man who was violating a protection order and refusing to leave his girlfriend's apartment. When they ran a computer check, they also discovered that he was wanted on a $10,000 warrant for use of a weapon. He was promptly booked into King County Jail.
Around 3:30 a.m. Thursday, a 30-year-old asked a passing stranger at a Junction bus stop if he knew where to buy some weed. The stranger offered to sell some to the victim. But instead, the stranger drew a semi-automatic handgun and demanded all of the victim's cash ($20).
After spending the night yelling and screaming at a Junction bus stop, a 44-year-old man known to local mental health providers was taken to Harborview for treatment. He couldn't tell officers when he had last eaten or had anything to drink, and his caseworker said the man had missed several appointments to ensure that he was taking his meds.
Sunday morning, a man called 911 to report that men armed with rifles were in the trees at the Alaska Junction. Officers spoke with the 38-year-old complainant, who admitted he hadn't eaten or slept in three days because he keeps seeing things and hearing voices. Officers had him transported to Harborview for treatment.
