Neighbors that make you smell bad, via voodoo. A woman assaults her sister with peanut butter. A BB gun to the scrotum as part of male-bonding. It’s just another installation of the North Metro Police Blotter “series.”
St. Anthony: “Officers found a 33-year-old man sleeping in his vehicle on the 2500 block of 38th Avenue. He had previously been forbidden from trespassing at the location. The man had a .410 blood-alcohol level, according to police reports. He was taken to a detox facility.”
Fridley: “A woman from the 6000 block of 2nd Street NE. complained to officers that her neighbors were doing voodoo on her. Police discussed the woman’s options with her.” Voodoo seems to be a large problem in this woman’s life, as shown in an earlier police blotter: “A resident of an apartment on the 6000 block of 2 1/2 Street NE. reported that someone had stolen two rolls of toilet paper from her apartment. She also complained to officers that neighbors in a nearby apartment were performing voodoo on her, causing her to smell. The neighbors denied any role in her problems.”
Blaine: “A 55-year-old woman was arrested on the 3200 block of 90th Avenue NE. for throwing a peanut butter container at her 56-year-old sister, causing a bruise and a cut to her leg. The younger sister was upset because the older sister had eaten the peanut butter with some crackers.”
Mounds View: “A 38-year-old man was shot in the scrotum with a BB gun near the 7600 block of Woodlawn Drive. He and a friend had been playing around and the friend accidentally shot him. No charges were filed.”
