—On Saturday, October 12th Deputies Kelly Marsh & John Fincher responded to a disturbance call at a residence off of County Road 334 in Blanket.
Upon arrival, Deputies stopped a vehicle leaving the location. The female complainant said that her husband and another female who were in the vehicle arrived at her house yelling at her and throwing things.
Reports state that as officers finished taking a statement from the complainant and come outside, they observed the other female leaning over the Sheriff’s Deputies patrol car hood. The woman said that she was cold and that it was warm by the car since it was running according to the report.
Deputies ordered the woman to get off of the patrol car and she complied, but reports state that she had a very poor attitude towards the deputies at the scene.
After the man and woman were released and issued a criminal trespass warning, the owner of the house observed scratches and a dent in the vehicles parked at the residence that were not there before. Deputies took a criminal mischief report.
The next morning, Fincher observed in the daylight scratches on the hood of his patrol car where the woman had been leaning the night before according to the report.
