May 27, 2005 Update

On Rochester at Bishop, A Troy Officer noticed that a traffic crash had just occurred. As he attempted to approach the crash scene and investigate, a 1999 Ford Escort with heavy front-end damage from the crash began to drive away. The Officer caught up to the fleeing vehicle and eventually stopped it. When the 35-year-old female driver from New Boston was asked why she was running from the crash scene, she denied running from anything. She had been on her cell phone the entire time that the Officer had her in view. She thought she was on Woodward in Royal Oak. After failing sobriety tests, she was arrested for drunk driving and fleeing the scene of the crash. She had a blood alcohol level of .15% on the breath test. She has a prior drunk driving conviction in 2004, so was charged with a second offense.


At the Oakland Mall Marshall Fields store, loss prevention officers recognized two subjects and their vehicle as suspects in larcenies from cash registers at other Marshall Fields locations. They contacted Troy Police as they watched one of the suspects pry open an unattended cash register inside the store and steal the money. Responding officers took him into custody as he was attempting to exit the store. Officers recovered $1360.00 that he had stolen from the register. The other suspect waiting in the vehicle outside claimed no knowledge of the arrested subject, however he was arrested on outstanding arrest warrants from another jurisdiction. A small amount of heroin was confiscated from the suspect who broke into the register.
At the Athens High Prom at Petruzzellos, 6950 Rochester, The Principal alerted the Juvenile Officers working the Prom to a group of attendees who arrived together in a limo and appeared to have consumed alcohol prior to their arrival. An 18-year-old female who was part of the group was displaying signs of intoxication. She was interviewed by detectives and had a blood alcohol level of .24% on a Preliminary Breath Test (PBT). The other members of her group were identified and interviewed. Seven additional members of the group ranging in ages between 17 and 18 were found to have been drinking, as well. Blood alcohol levels ranged from .03 to .13%. Two of those members tried to flee via a second floor door wall while officers were conducting their investigation, however they were caught and detained. The parents were summoned to pick their children up. Five members of the group had not been drinking and were allowed to stay.
On Kirts, an Attorney who is the executor/overseer of an estate of a deceased client was picking up the mail. A birthday card had been sent to the deceased clients address from an unknown sender and the card contained a baggie with a powder substance inside. He suspected it was cocaine based on his clients history. The card and powder was turned over to the Police and 9.8 grams of the powdery substance located in the baggie inside the card tested positive for cocaine.
In the lot of Nino Salvaggios at 6835 Rochester, an Officer observed a 2005 Saturn ION squealing its tires and driving carelessly in the lot. A 23-year-old male driver from Shelby Township was arrested for Driving on a Suspended License. His 16-year-old male passenger from Troy was found in possession of suspected hallucinogenic mushrooms. He claimed he found them in the bushes. He was arrested and transported to the station. He was later turned over to his father.
