Stolen plate: A Sammamish resident called police on April 6 reporting his license plate had been stolen within the last week. The victim said that he saw his license plate on his car when he washed it on March 27, and only drove his car on April 3 when he went to dinner at Chuckaways in Bellevue. He said that everywhere he parked was either in a covered spot or close to entrances, and doesn’t know his license plate was stolen. No suspect has been located at this time.
Dog fight: At approximately 2:20 p.m on April 9., an officer was dispatched to the Knolls Apartments on Inglewood Hill Road due to a pit bull fight occurring in the parking lot. Three dogs were involved in the brawl. The owners were attempting to break it up and were covered in blood. When the officer arrived, there was only one dog on scene. One of the dogs was inside the owner’s home, with the owner refusing to cooperate, and the other had run off during the fight. The cooperative owner was treated for her bite wounds on the scene, after which the officers helped her look for her dog, a pit bull mix named Doodle. The dog was seen by another officer on NE Inglewood Hill Road, but when the Deputy attempted to get the dog to come to him, it ran into the woods. It is unknown whether the dog has been found.
Act your age: A Sammamish citizen reported that a home on 229th Ave N.E. has been the source of a lot of house parties when the parents are away. The weekend of April 12 was no exception, with the neighbor finding beer cans in his yard. An officer arrived on scene, knocked on the door, was rejected by a young man refusing to talk. The other occupants put the blinds down and refused to answer the door. The officer recorded the plates that were at the home and saw a lengthy history with the two young men associated with the home. He attempted to reach the parents, but could not get ahold of them. The officer told the neighbor to call the homeowner’s association to see what action could be taken to reach the parents and let them know about the parties. He also advised the neighbor to call 9-1-1 any time his peace was disturbed. The officer said he will be forwarding the report on to administration to see if follow-up can be done to “prevent the peace from being disturbed and from tying up police personnel by dealing with young men that act the part of young teens.”

The resident claimed she had taken 100 Trazadone pills in an attempt to take her life, but had thrown them up. She was weak and lethargic and unable to leave the bed without assistance.
