The following information was compiled from city of Sammamish and Issaquah police reports:
A Sammamish woman called police Nov. 27 to report she was hit by a vehicle while she was on her morning walk.
The woman, who was walking near Trossachs Boulevard and Southeast 9th Way, said the man struck her at a very low rate of speed, but fast enough for her to land on the hood of the vehicle.
The woman told the man she wasn’t hurt, but wanted to call police to document the incident. The driver then took off.
Police later tracked down the man, who said his windows were foggy. He said he left because the woman was yelling expletives at him and allegedly said she had his license plate number.
Police explained the importance of making full stops at intersections and issued a citation for the collision.
WINDOWS BROKEN
A developer contacted Sammamish police Nov. 26 explaining that sometime over the Thanksgiving holiday vandals shattered the windows on the doors of two model homes with rocks.
It didn’t appear entry was made and no alarms were reported over the holiday. Damage was estimated at $3,000.
VULGAR MESSAGE
A Sammamish man called police Nov. 27 to report a vulgar call to his cell phone. The man said the caller, also a man, stated in a voicemail that a shared acquaintance was “sleeping around” and that he “better be OK with sharing.” When the man called the number on his phone to see what the voicemail was about a woman answered. She said she never made any calls from her phone, hadn’t let anyone use her phone and guessed that her phone had been “spoofed.”
Both parties reportedly have ex-spouses who are very spiteful and would do such a thing.
