Early in the morning on March 3, an officer from the Port St. Lucie Police Department went to a local residence after the authorities were notified by someone asking them to check on her friend. The caller said she had been talking to her on the phone when she thought she heard the woman’s wife becoming physically violent, and she wanted to make sure everything was okay.

According to the arrest affidavit, both individuals were home when he arrived, but each provided the officer with a different account of what happened. The 39-year-old woman who answered the door reportedly told him that her 40-year-old wife was intoxicated and became angry.

The ex-girlfriend of a married Florida man reportedly pretended she was an ICE agent and allegedly kidnapped his wife from her place of employment.

On April 10, a woman was working a shift at the Days Inn in Panama City when someone wearing clothing giving the impression they were an ICE agent came to the hotel and asked for her. The employee noted that in addition to the outfit, the woman was carrying a walkie-talkie and a card that appeared to be from the sheriff’s office, causing her to further believe she was a legitimate law enforcement agent. When the employee was told she would need to accompany the woman to the sheriff’s office, she willingly got into the back seat of their vehicle.

According to reports, when they were in the car, the driver took the woman’s cellphone away and said she could make a call when they arrived. During the ride, the driver reportedly made comments about the passenger’s husband and told her she would be held responsible for his wrongs. The man’s wife, who knew where the sheriff’s office was, realized the driver had passed the location. The driver reportedly informed her that they were going to a different office, but instead allegedly drove the woman to an apartment complex and told her additional ICE agents were awaiting their arrival. When she was told to get out of the vehicle, the passenger was able to run away.

The parents of a 3-year-old were arrested when the youngster was found on the roof of their residence while they were reportedly passed out after allegedly staying up all night to play video games and smoke marijuana.

According to reports, around 8:00 PM on April 9, the mother and father of two children, ages 3 and 1, checked on the youngsters before relaxing in their Glenville, West Virginia, home for the evening. They reportedly smoked marijuana and decided to play video games, and they ended up staying up all night. At some point, presumably while his parents were asleep, the 3-year-old managed to get out of his room and climb onto the roof of the dwelling. It was not reported how long the child was up there, but late the following morning, the police began receiving calls from people who saw him on the roof.

Just before noon, officers with the Glenville Police Department went to the address, and the youngster was still on the roof. The officers entered the home, but did not immediately find the parents. They reported that the house was dirty and had excrement smeared on the walls, and that they found the 1-year-old, whom they said “smelled of feces and urine.” The police reported that they went into the 3-year-old’s room, which allegedly had a lock on the outside of the door, and saw a broken window. They surmised that the youngster climbed out the window and made his way to the roof. While it was noted that the boy, who also smelled like he had soiled himself, was cold and wet because it was raining outside, there are currently no reports of physical injuries.

Two people were arrested in connection with a criminal case involving an elderly person after the police believed they were abusing and stealing money from the man.

According to reports, last November, an elderly man who was residing in a nursing home and receiving medical care was released into the custody of a 58-year-old man, despite the facility warning that the move would likely cause his health to suffer. Approximately five months later, the authorities were notified about a situation involving possible domestic violence, and the police were sent to the home where the former patient was currently residing. When they arrived and approached the residence, they reported that a man and woman were standing at the front door and yelling at each other. They soon learned that the argument was about the elderly man, who was reportedly found in poor physical health.

A woman who reportedly said she was on her way to pick up her baby was arrested after the police found the child in the car and asserted that she was driving under the influence.

In the early morning hours of April 6, the mother of a 5-month-old was driving in El Paso and reportedly did not use her turn signal when she changed lanes.

The driver, who allegedly told the deputies she was alone in the car, reportedly let them know she had just finished her shift at work, and she was going to pick up her 5-month-old baby.

A 35-year-old Texas man with a history of family violence is facing several charges after allegedly severely injuring his elderly girlfriend by pouring burning hot soup on her because he believed she was talking too much.

According to reports, on April 3, the authorities were notified by a 65-year-old woman when she stopped by the local police station on her way to an appointment at the Social Security office. She explained that she wanted to contact them sooner, but she lacked a phone and vehicle, so she was forced to wait. The woman reported in a written statement that she and her 35-year-old boyfriend, who had been dating for approximately a year, share a residence. The man allegedly physically attacked her by choking her at times, and on February 28, she obtained third-degree burns from an incident between them.
