WRECKED SPECS
6:56 p.m. — 3500 block of South Tamiami Trail
Dispute: A woman called the police because a basketball broke her son’s glasses. An officer spoke to the son, who said he was walking across a basketball court when a ball bounced off the backboard and hit him, breaking the glasses. The mother felt the teenager playing basketball or the teenager’s parents should pay for the broken glasses. An officer spoke to the basketball player’s mother, who said she was going to give some money to the son for the broken glasses, but the son was disrespectful to her. An officer did not find any malicious intent associated with the incident and determined no crime was committed.
GASSED UP
11:45 p.m. — 600 block of North Washington Boulevard
Dispute: An employee at a gas station said a customer paid for $25 worth of gas, and the pumps indicated the gas was successfully pumped. The customer came back into the store and demanded her money back because she said the pump was not working. An officer spoke to the customer, who was still yelling at the employee asking for her money back. The officer said the employee would need to contact the store’s management during daytime hours to get a refund.
