Homeless Woman Suspected in Thefts
Just after midnight, a man requested that Domino’s Pizza employees call the police claiming he’d been robbed.
When police spoke to the man, he claimed that a woman had robbed him at Alexandria House. Officers checked the woman’s belongings but didn’t find any of the man’s property. The man said he would cancel the report if she left the building and did not return. She agreed to go.
However, around 40 minutes later, officers were called back to the apartment building for a report the woman was asleep in the lobby.
Officers once again checked the woman’s belongings for the man’s missing wallet but didn’t find anything. The woman was not a resident, so they advised her to leave the building.
Just before 8 am, a caller at US Bank reported a homeless woman lying on the floor in the lobby. However, she left the scene before the police arrived.
