The Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office received 340 calls for service between Friday, Feb. 3 and Friday, Feb. 10. Below are selected reports.
At 10:59 a.m. Sunday, Feb. 5 in Quilcene, a resident reported a burglary at a neighbor’s home.
The home had been vacant following the death of the owners.
A bank employee had been coming to the property to clean it up.
The neighbor reported hearing noises the night before, and the following morning, saw doors to the home had been left open. Sheds on the property had also been left open.
A dolly had been placed inside the home and it appeared someone was getting ready to take the wood stove out.
Real estate agents were overseeing the property and the house had been listed for sale.
Deputies responded to the property and spoke with a real estate agent who was at the location.
At 2:51 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 5 in Brinnon, a resident reported an aggressive dog that had been nipping at him.
The man said he had talked to an animal control officer the previous week, and was advised to call back if the man had another encounter with the animal.
The resident said he would try other solutions to handle the dog the next time it came on his property, but in the meantime, he was too busy to do anything about the canine.
At 5:49 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 5 in Nordland, a resident reported a burglary that had just happened.
The couple had left home for about an hour, but came back and found dirty marks on their brand-new carpet and footprints inside.
Nothing appeared to be missing. All the doors were locked and the alarm system had been armed.
A deputy responded but could not find any muddy footprints or signs that someone had been in the house.
The couple were confused and said the dirt they saw earlier was no longer visible.
A deputy noted the couple had a dog, which charged at the officer and began barking until it was told to stop.
The couple said the dog had been in the home when they left.
The alarm in the home had been activated, and the security camera system did not show anyone in the home.
The deputy told the couple that it appeared no one had been inside.
