Potty break time
The Kitsap County Sheriff’s Office was called by Port of Brownsville security just after 2 a.m. Nov. 13 after an intoxicated 40-year-old Central Kitsap man refused to leave port property.
The security guard told the responding deputy the man has been banned from the port multiple times for being intoxicated and causing problems. The guard said they don’t have a problem with him being there when he is sober, however, he yells and causes a scene when he’s been drinking. After the man started yelling in the parking lot, the guard told him to leave or he was going to call the sheriff’s office. The man told him, “Go ahead, I don’t care” and proceeded to the locked bathroom which requires a code. The man typed in the code and had been in the bathroom for an hour. The guard let the deputy in who called the man’s name. He heard no response, but saw the man’s feet dangling from a toilet behind a stall. The deputy found the man sitting on the toilet. He was arrested and booked into jail for second-degree criminal trespass and later released.
Renting the items
for good
A sheriff’s deputy responded to United Rentals on State Highway 303 in East Bremerton at 7 a.m. Nov. 11 for a report of several items missing.
Sometime during the night, someone broke into the gate and stole several items out of a F-550 parked in United Rentals’ yard. The F-550 had been unhooked from its trailer and moved. Evidence at the scene led the deputy to believe the suspect’s vehicle had gotten stuck in the mud and the truck was used to pull it out. Missing from the F-550 was the entire dash including a GPS unit and the truck’s rear backing camera. Also stolen were a variety of tools, hydraulic crimpers and oxygen and acetylene tanks. The deputy noted in his report about a dozen employees had been laid off in the last year. There is no current suspect information.
Rolled in the rain
A 19-year-old Bremerton man was traveling on State Route 3, 2 miles southwest of Bremerton, at 9:35 p.m. Nov. 16 when he hydroplaned, losing control of his vehicle.
He struck a jersey barrier and exited the roadway to the right. His vehicle, a 2005 Pontiac Sunfire, rolled several times, hit a tree and came to a rest on its roof. He sustained lacerations to his hands. His passenger, a 19-year-old Portland man, was transported to Tacoma General Hospital with abdominal pain. The driver was cited for driving too fast for conditions. Both men were wearing their seatbelts.
