Assault: A 56-year-old Detroit Road woman was choked and threatened with death Feb. 3 by her 46-year-old boyfriend from Cleveland. She signed complaints for assault and aggravated menacing. He was arrested Feb. 4.
Car recovered, Center Ridge Road: A stolen 1995 Ford F150 pickup turned up Feb. 3 in a parking lot with a peeled column. It had been taken the day before in Cleveland and was impounded.
Disorderly conduct, Canterbury Road: An intoxicated 29-year-old woman came home and helped herself to her older brother’s cigarettes. An argument followed and police assistance was requested. Little sister was arrested for disorderly conduct while intoxicated.
Car theft, Woodpath Drive: A couple offering on the internet to sell their 2004 Volkswagen Touareg received a visit Feb. 5 from two ostensible “buyers.” They took it on a test drive, never to be seen again. They arrived in a 2005 Audi A8, which had been stolen from Euclid, where they “bought” it with a counterfeit check. The Audi also was bearing a stolen license plate. One of the males has been identified as a 22-year-old Euclid man.
Fraud: A Broadmore Lane woman as of Feb. 7 had headed off a spurious U.S. Postal Service change of address request and a phony credit card application. She was advised to place watches on her file with the major credit bureaus.
Theft, Meadow Lane: A homeowner is out the $3,000 he gave to a contractor in August 2016 to improve the victim’s house. The 56-year-old suspect from Akron has offered a series of excuses for not starting the work. The victim’s patience expired in early February when he reported the theft. Police advise the public to never pay for work upfront. A legitimate contractor won’t ask for that. A reasonable deposit is much more customary and safer.
