“The guy’s got his p— out.”

Categories
Housing

On May 9, 2026, a resident called police to report “there’s a gentleman outside the vehicle and the guy’s got his penis out. He’s pulling his pants down and he keeps pulling his wiener out.” When dispatch asked if the subject had any identifiable tattoos the caller replied: “He’s got it all covered up other than his penis. I suspect they’re on dope. It’s not right.”
