The following information was compiled from City of Issaquah and City of Sammamish police reports:

Police visited 15 homes scattered throughout Sammamish after 10 p.m., Oct. 19-20, after the owners had left their garage doors open.

The officers warned the residents that there have been several recent burglaries through open garage doors.

The officers had done the same check the week before, and found 15 more homes with garage doors wide open.

Deer euthanized

A Sammamish police officer put two deers out of their misery after they were struck by cars.

The first deer had deep lacerations on its hind quarter. The officer pulled it off the roadway and shot it in the chest Oct. 19.

The next day a car struck another deer on the 1100 block of 228th Avenue Northeast, breaking both of its legs.

A witness had pulled the deer off the roadway, but it was in obvious misery as it thrashed around.

The officer used a rock and a retaining wall as his backstop, and when there were no cars passing by, unloaded one round into the deer’s head. It died instantly.

‘Family traditions’

A fight broke out at Tibbetts Creek Manor after an usher punched a guest below the belt Oct. 15 in Issaquah.

The man took the usher to the ground as they fought.

City burglarized

Someone stole $5,000 in equipment and blank signage from the City of Sammamish’s maintenance shop Oct 18.

The thieves pried open a side door, splintering its frame, and then made off with an oven, a glass top stove and an air conditioning unit.

They also took thousands in blank aluminum signage. Officers dusted for prints but only got smears and a texture that appears when someone wears gloves.

A paying shoplifter

A woman paid for a $100 worth of groceries at a store on Front Street in Issaquah, but not without first pocketed a couple miscellaneous items including flea collars and greeting cards.

When police arrested her Oct. 14, they found various drug paraphernalia on her, including a glass pipe stained with resin and a container of needles.

She didn’t have any illegal drugs, but there were several little baggies often used for storing marijuana.

Good neighbor, bad neighbor

After a man was trying to build a better relationship with his neighbor on Northeast First Street, Sammamish, he found his neighbor drunk and sifting through his trash can.

Police tried to interview him Oct. 17, but he was so drunk he fell asleep sitting upright with his eyes open.

Tupperware fight

A man got into a fight with his friend after a disagreement about some tupperware that hadn’t been returned Oct. 16.

The man confronted his friend outside on the 1900 block of 23rd Place Northeast in Issaquah. They fought and then began to push each other until some friends broke them up.

The fight possibly left a dent in someone’s Acura.

The fight only left a few minor scrapes on man’s arms. He signed an order that banned the friend from the property for three years.

Grand theft

Thieves made off with several guns and thousands in jewelry after crawling through a large dog door at a home on the 2600 block of 239 Avenue Southeast in Sammamish.

Total loss was estimated at about $35,000.
