Police Report 12/22 - 12/28

Port Allegany Police had a reasonably uneventful week beginning Monday, December 22, as most residents seemed occupied with holiday fun or were conscious of Santa’s close observation. Still, officers patrolled and enforced the law as needed.

Last Monday at 1:30 p.m. Chief Dave Distrola received a complaint that a student was in possession of a knife at the Seneca Highlands Career and Technical Center. The student had not threatened anyone with the knife. No charges have been filed.

Last Tuesday at 7:30 p.m. Officer Tony Tanner addressed the issue of three vehicles deemed abandoned within the borough, contrary to a local ordinance.

At 2:10 p.m. an officer helped ambulance personnel gain entry to a Hickory Street residence to help a resident who had fallen.

At 6:55 p.m. Tanner checked out a 911 hang-up at a West Vine Street residence. The call was found to have been accidental.

Thursday at 2:20 a.m. Tanner discovered a vehicle crashed into a signpost behind the port office. The vehicle was a silver 2001 Audi, registered to Adam Lloyd of Foster Circle. Investigation continues; charges may follow.

At 10:30 a.m. Distrola attempted contact with the Audi owner but did not reach him. Bidwell’s Auto towed the vehicle.
