So the local suburbs have been bereft of strangeness as of late, but by the good fortune of the Google, I've stumbled across the Call and Post blotters, which serve the three major cities of Ohiostan. The combination of colloquialism and general lack of innocent-until-proven-guilty objectivity make the most banal of city crime a bit more interesting. A few of the more tame examples.
Who in the hell shot John and Jamon at the Motorcycle club: On Feb. 10, at 3:15 in the morning, a big argument broke out between some dudes in the Toros Motorcycle club over on East 5th Avenue. During the argument some clown pulled out a pistol, began firing and some shots hit John and Jamon in the legs. Dang! It could have been worse, and both fellas were taken to a nearby hospital and treated for their injuries. The matter is under investigation.
A tall goofy White man tried to snatch Sarah’s pocketbook: Around 11:26 p.m., on Feb.14, Valentines Day, a young lady named Sarah Shepherd pulled into the Speedway Gas Station at East Dublin and Grandville Road. As she was getting back into her car after pumping her gas she said a tall White man ran over and tried to pull her out of the car and when he couldn’t he punched her and then tried to snatch her pocketbook. The suspect is a tall White man, about 30, with a receding hairline that went all the way back to his ears. If

If you know something say something and call Crime Stoppers and get paid.
Anyways, back to the burbs...
CONSPIRACY COMPLAINT, LAKEWOOD HEIGHTS BOULEVARD: A man called shortly after 8 p.m. on Jan. 25 stating he wanted to show officers a smear mark on his hallway walls. The mark leads to the back door, and the man said it had been there since he moved in three months ago. He was worried it was linked to an unsolved mystery in the city. Officers reassured the man that it was just a smear mark.
DOMESTIC DISPUTE, BROOKPARK
A couple was arrested after their argument over who was the greatest guitarist of all time became so heated that Motel 6 staff was forced to call the Brook Park police.
