I like a little whimsy in my police blotters.

Lots of mail related mischief reported today. Who on earth steals bills?

2:23 a.m. Runaway juveniles surfaced in a b arn.

Though I read that as kids coming up for air in a pool inside a barn the first time.

When I was a kid, I totally wanted my parents to buy a house with a barn, and then build an indoor pool in the barn.

There is nothing more exciting/terrifying than a dispatcher going “okay, I have a weird one for you”.

“12:04 p.m. A man thought bills were being stolen from his mailbox after seeing a suspicious Facebook post.”

What was that Facebook post, and why was it more compelling evidence than the missing bills themselves?

Now that would be cool but also kind of a waste of a barn.

I’d like to think this had something to do with it.

I found someone’s mail on the side of the road about 2 months ago, someone had gone through it, decided that the Harley neck gator was not for them and tossed it with a dozen cans of white claw.

Now how and why? My schizophrenic neighbor used to always accuse us of tempering with her mail/credit cards etc but I never once have heard of it happening to someone I know.
