Free Seminar, It Was a Tornado and the Police Report

A couple of things I left out Saturday and the police report follows as promised:

Baylor Scott & White is doing a free seminar on "Causes and Treatment for Knee Pain" this Thursday, June 22 at 6 p.m.  

Don't forget July 4th is coming up soon!  Here is a link to more information - the application to be in the parade is also on a link top right of the blog.

Turns out the storm damage in Point Venture in April was a tornado after all!  Here is a link to a report by KXAN.

From the Chief:
Patrol
Lakeway Police Department Officers conducted 176 traffic stops and responded to the following calls; 10 alarms, 19 animal calls, 5 collisions, 11 parking violations, 102 other calls for service, for a total of 323 calls.

Lakeway Police Department Officers made a routine traffic stop that resulted in an out of jurisdiction warrant arrest.  Officers also made a warrant arrest for a family violence assault that stemmed from a Lakeway incident and an additional on scene family violence arrest; for a weekly total of 3 arrests.

Patrol Officers responded to 1300 block of Sledge Drive in reference to a disturbance.  The subsequent investigation resulted in the arrest of a male subject for assault.  An Emergency Protective Order was also issued. 

Patrol Officers responded to 15000 block of Gebron in reference to a Burglary of a Vehicle.  Investigation revealed that sometime after 1900 hours on June 11, 2017, some tools were stolen from the toolbox of a small pickup truck.  A possible suspect was identified, the case has been sent to CID.

Patrol Officers responded to a Casa Verde address in reference to a prior Suspicious Person call.  The nine year old granddaughter of the complainant advised that two days prior, a male subject driving a white van or pickup followed her.  She ran inside her residence to her bedroom and observed the suspect looking in the adjacent bedroom window.  A close patrol was placed on the incident location.

Patrol Officers responded to a Copperleaf Road address in reference to a Criminal Mischief.  At approximately 08:15 in the morning the victim heard a loud noise and later discovered that her back window had been shattered.  She located a gold BB shaped pellet in her window.  The BB could have possibly come from the neighbor’s children.  

CID/Animal Protection
Detectives were assigned to follow up on a domestic violence incident that occurred at a Long Wood Drive address. After reviewing the case information and following up with the victim who had documented injuries from her doctor’s office, it was determined that probable caused existed for an assault charge. Detectives obtained a warrant (Assault with Injury, FV, Class A Misd.) and the suspect in this case was subsequently arrested. 

Detectives were assigned to investigate a report of theft of headlights from a vehicle that was parked at a RR 620 S. business. Video surveillance was obtained from the business and a suspect was seen removing the headlights from the victim’s vehicle. The suspect was identified and a warrant has been issued for his arrest, charging him with Theft from a Vehicle (Class A Misd). 

Detectives were assigned to investigate a report of theft where an ex-employee of a local business has made an unauthorized transfer from a company bank account into his personal account. Detectives are in the process of obtaining a subpoena to obtain the bank account information on the ex-employee. This case is still open and in progress. 

Detectives were assigned to investigate a report of theft that occurred at a RR 620 South business. According to the initial report, the suspect failed to pay for his dry cleaning bill of $247.13. Detectives followed with the complainant by phone to confirm that the suspect had not returned to pay his bill. Detectives then attempted to make contact with the suspect, but were unsuccessful. At this time a warrant for Theft of Service (Class B Misd.) has been filed on the suspect. 

Animal control followed up on an animal attack/bite that occurred on June 10, 2017, and was initially reported by Austin Animal Control. According to the report, the complainant was bit by her cat on the left hand. Animal control followed up with Lakeway Veterinary to confirm that the cat was current on the rabies vaccination, which showed to be June 2016. The cat has been home quarantined for ten days. 

***UPDATE***Detectives were assigned to investigate a report of an assault on a disabled individual who is employed by a local business.  The initial report was forwarded from the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services and notes that the victim has MR, Cerebral Palsy, a seizure disorder, and the mental capacity of a 12 year old. According to the victim, a male employee did inappropriate and unwanted touching to her. Video surveillance corroborated the victim’s statement of the inappropriate touching by the male employee and an assault charge was filed (Assault on a Disabled Individual, Class A Misd). Detectives testified in Travis County Court 6 in Austin last week and the defendant/suspect was found guilty. 


***UPDATE***Detectives met with the Travis County District Attorney’s Office, White Collar Crime Unit, to discuss a case that was originally filed in 2010 with the Lakeway Police Department. The allegation of fraud eventually led to a charge being filed in 2014, Misapplication of Fiduciary Property (Felony, 2nd Degree). At this time, a new prosecutor has been assigned to handle the case, as well as a new defense attorney to represent the defendant. According to the prosecutor, the judge will not allow anymore resets on the case and a plea offer has been presented to the defendant.
