Highlands woman flashed three times; it wasn’t a charm | The Issaquah Blotter

A compilation of incidents according to Issaquah police reports

The following information was compiled from city of Issaquah police reports:

REPEAT FLASHER – A woman was walking her dog along Park Drive near Grand Ridge Elementary, when a teen flashed her not once, but three consecutive times Aug. 10.

Walking up the hill, she at first passed the boy, but when her dog stopped, she turned to look at him. The teen pulled down his red shorts to expose his front.

She looked away, but not believing what she just saw, looked back and he flashed her again.

After she turned to walk up the hill, the teen ran toward her. He was about 10 feet away when the woman said, “Go ahead and try that again,” and so the teenage boy did.

She told police she didn’t feel threatened, but she thought something was wrong with the teen and was concerned for the children in the area.

 

Skate park troubles – Two youths reportedly tried to push down a chain-link fence at the Issaquah Skate Park on Aug. 11.

One was reportedly wearing a tie-dye T-shirt. When police arrived, they found a woman wearing such a shirt, but no damage to the fence.

She did however, have two pets on a leash that were digging dirt under the fence.

 

Thieves steal antique door knobs – A teenage girl and a man on a dirt bike reportedly stole three antique door knobs from an empty home Aug. 10.

A neighbor saw the girl walk out of the home through the back French doors, and a man in his 30s park his motorbike in the driveway.

He approached the two, and they told him they were assessing water damage to the home by taking photos.

The two then left, the girl on foot from home on 11th Place Northwest.

The man told police the two sounded very convincing, until he decided to peak through the window of the house.

He counted the three missing door knobs, all made of antique glass and worth about $100, missing from the house.

 

Bike burglary – Someone broke into a man’s home only to steal a $7,000 bicycle Aug. 9.

There wasn’t a sign of forced entry, and the homeowner had locked and shut all of his doors and windows.

He did, however, recently put his house on the market.

Real estate agents left a key box on his front porch, but they said they had only toured the house once.

In addition to the stolen bike, the burglar took the most expensive helmet (out of four) and the most expensive backpack from a home on Mount Pilchuck Avenue Northwest.
