September 2, 2005 Update
At Nino Salvagio at 6835 Rochester, a complainant reported observing a dog in a car apparently under distress from heat. Officers arrived at 4:40 pm and found the front window rolled down 1-2 inches. The dog inside the car was breathing in a rapid and shallow manner. Officers opened the car and provided the dog some water. The temperature outside was 88 degrees; the temperature inside appeared significantly higher. The car was parked facing the sun with no shade. The complainant originally had the car owner paged, but she didnt respond, so he called the Police. The driver, a 62-year-old female from Sterling Heights, came out of the store at 5:10 pm. She was agitated with the officers presence, questioning what they were doing with her dog. When the officers explained, she claimed she was only inside for 10 minutes. She didnt feel it was that hot outside and pointed out the rear windows were also cracked. Prosecution for animal cruelty is pending.
On Meijer Drive, a witness reported observing a male tampering with autos in the area. He was gone when officers arrived, however it appears the subject was trying to remove gas from fleet vehicles parked in the area.
In the area of Rochester and Big Beaver, officers responded to a report of a property damage crash wherein the 95 GMC Jimmy that was at fault fled. Officers located the vehicle driven by a 23-year-old female from Detroit. She denied involvement in the crash, however her vehicle had damage on the front end. She claimed the damage was old. A witness identified her as the at-fault/responsible driver. The damage on her Jimmy was consistent with that sustained by the vehicle she struck. Her license was suspended. She was arrested.
At St. Nicholas Church at 760 W. Wattles, a citizen observed a white female, approximately 20 years, 55, with brown hair, wearing a black and white striped shirt and gym shoes with red trim, looking into the windows of vehicles parked in the lot. She eventually opened the door of a 99 Chevy Venture. When church reps. questioned her activities, she claimed she was looking for an earring and left.
A resident of Braken street came to the station to report that while his 4 and 8-year-old sons were playing in the yard, a male crossed through the woods behind the residence, approached them, and asked if either were named Brian. The 8 year old responded, no. The subject then asked if they had seen a kid named Brian. The 8 year old again responded no, then lead his brother into the house and reported the incident to his mother. She went outside and did not observe the subject. He is described as a W/M, between 40 and 45, 511, slightly balding, with a scruffy beard
