This week, a man is busted near Waterfront Park for an outstanding warrant. Finding a few used and unused syringes in his clothes and boots, a clever Bainbridge police officer suggests that jail staff give the suspect a (ahem) thorough search before showing him to his cell. The officer’s hunch paid off with yet another charge: trying to sneak heroin into the jail.
Also this week, an islander calls the cops after a neighbor menaces him with a leaf blower, and a dead man’s meds mysteriously appear at the police station’s front door.
