From IDS Reports

From someone tearing fabric out of a children’s lawn chairs to a woman trying to bust her roommate for unplugging their home router, several odd or unexpected crimes were reported to the Bloomington Police Department this week. All of the following accounts were 
collected from BPD:

Attempted theft at 
Victoria’s Secret

A woman tried to purchase items from Victoria’s Secret with a fraudulent check last Sunday. The check was written for $470, employees told police. When the check bounced, the woman left.

Someone ripped fabric out of chairs

Someone came to the back porch of a woman’s house on the south side of town last Saturday and broke, bent and tore out the fabric of her children’s lawn chairs.

Roommate fed up with noise, “harasses” her roommate

Officers responded to a call last Saturday for harassment. One of two roommates, a woman, said because she was playing her music too loud, her roommate unplugged their home router. The BPD officer told the woman her roommate had not committed a crime.
