Bay Village Police: Kids Prove Dad’s New Car Alert Works

Kid’s playing in Dad’s new truck proved his Onstar alert system worked last week when Bay Village Police received an Onstar Alert on Feb. 6 at 11:31 a.m. OnStar called Bay Police and reported they were receiving an alarm from a truck that was parked in the 400 block of Bradley Rd.  The operator was unable to get anyone to answer, and could hear kids screaming in the background.  Officers located the vehicle in question and discovered there were two children playing in a new truck while the owner was trying to figure out some of the new electronics.  One of the kids had accidentally hit the emergency button.

Call Back or Else!

On 02/04/2016, at 1828 hrs, a Midland resident reported he received a scam message on his answering machine.  The caller demanded an immediate call back from the homeowner otherwise he would be arrested and prosecuted federally.  The homeowner did not call back.  BVPD reminds residents to be very cautious of phone solicitations.

Renter Dispute

On 02/04/2016, at 2356 hrs, BVPD responded to a house in the 500 block of Columbia Rd. for a landlord/tenant dispute.  The caller reported she was being harassed by the landlord and that he had turned the power off to the bathroom.  The landlord claimed the tenant had thrown items at him.  Officers resolved the issue for the evening and took a report on the incident.

OVI

On 02/06/2016, at 0038 hrs, a BVPD officer stopped a vehicle on Wolf Rd. near Saddler for a traffic violation.  After speaking with the 30 yoa male driver, the officer suspected the driver had been drinking.  Field sobriety tests were administered, and as a result, the Avon Lake resident was arrested for OVI.  He will face charges at RRMC.

Skatepark Argument  

On 02/07/2016, at 1230 hrs, BVPD received a call from a patron at the skate park claiming someone had threatened her boyfriend, possibly with a knife.  After speaking with the involved parties it was determined there were no weapons involved and no violence.  There was an exchange of words because one skater thought the other had taken his camera lens.  He located the misplaced lens in his own bag.  Both parties were advised and sent on their way.
