Bloomington Blotter: Unknown substances, missing persons and counterfeit bills

 

Woman reported being injected with unidentified substance

Bloomington police responded to a report of an assault around 3 a.m. Saturday.

A 29-year-old woman told officers she was injected with an unknown substance during the incident, but quickly became uncooperative with the investigations, police said.

The assault was reported to have occurred on the 2500 block of South Rockport Road.

Officers said the woman was intoxicated when the report was made and the details of the incident were fuzzy.

She stopped answering questions soon after the investigation began, Sgt. George Connolly said.
