Police Report 1/26 - 2/01

Port Allegany Police had a relatively quiet week, beginning Monday, January 26. It would have been quieter without that smoke alarm triggered by a culinary mishap.

Last Monday at 1 p.m. Chief Dave Distrola helped a motorist unlock a vehicle at an East Mill Street residence.
