b e h i n d
the vehicle
and exited
my car, I
could hear
screaming
coming
from inside the Charger,”
Hopp wrote. “I could also
hear a female voice yell, ‘Help
me!’ I approached the vehicle
and observed in the driver
seat, a white female leaning
over the center console and
grabbing another female
with both arms. (The driver)
was not wearing a shirt
and her upper body was
completely undressed. Both
females were shaking, yelling
and pushing each other.”

as her girlfriend.

Police Blotter
• A man who told a Flagler Avenue barber his name was Mark Cable left without paying for his haircut Friday. The man said he worked for dentist Dr. Sandy Pape, but left his checkbook at the office. He said he would return with the $20, but never did. When the barber contacted the dentist, she told him she had planned on hiring Cable as a dental technician, but never did based on a background check that contained numerous convictions for fraud and aggravated assault. The barber said he was concerned the man would steal from other businesses and Pape told police she was concerned that Cable was going around town telling people he was a dentist at her office. A warrant for the man’s arrest was filed.

• A woman on Seidenberg Avenue was attacked by a man on a BMX bike late Friday night. She told police a white man in a gray hoodie jumped off his bike and tackled her to the ground. He stated “this is from Rodrigo,” and then got back on his bike and left the scene. She was not seriously injured in the incident. The report did not state whether the woman knows a “Rodrigo” or if she had any idea what prompted the incident.

• Police were called to the Publix in Keys Plaza at 8 a.m. Sunday after a homeless man started yelling in the store that someone stole his bicycle he left parked outside.
