Sierra Madre Police Blotter


For The Week Of April 8-14, 2013

Wednesday April 10, 2013

At 2:30pm, officers responded to a business in the 300 block 
of West Sierra Madre Boulevard to investigate a report of 
a Battery. An employee allegedly grabbed the arm of a co-
worker and pulled her toward another area of the business. 
The victim broke free from the grasp and reported the 
incident to her supervisors. The victim initiated a private 
person’s arrest for the incident and the other employee was 
booked on the charge of battery. 

Thursday April 11, 2013

Between 7-9pm, and unknown vehicle collided with a 
parked vehicle in the 1900 block of Oakwood Avenue. The 
unknown vehicle left the scene without making an attempt to 
contact the owner of the parked vehicle. The parked vehicle 
sustained moderate damage to the left rear side panel. 

Friday April 12, 2013

A resident in the 700 block Fairview Avenue reported that 
someone had entered two of their vehicles that were parked 
in the driveway overnight. An unknown suspect entered 
the unlocked vehicles, rummaged through the interiors and 
removed property. A similar crime occurred a week prior in 
the 200 block of Grove Avenue. 

Saturday April 13, 2013

At 4:30am, three individuals became involved in an 
argument inside an apartment in the 00 block of Esperanza. 
At one point, two of the individuals locked the third party 
out of the residence as he had become belligerent. That 
individual broke the living room window with a chair and 
tried to climb in. He failed at this and subsequently kicked 
the front door open. Once inside he punched one of the 
occupants several times in the face. When police arrived, 
the aggressor was arrested for Battery and Vandalism. The 
victim of the Battery sustained minor injuries.
