ShareTweetEmail

Portsmouth Police Officers responded to a report of a boss embezzling from a local business and there was a lot of excitement at the Oasis. We hit the highlights of the Portsmouth Police Chief’s Daily Briefing.

Strangers in the Dark

  • Just after 2 am, a caller reported a suspicious person in dark clothing with a flashlight in the fenced-off area at Goodwill on Gallia. Police apprehended a man at the scene, but Goodwill officials chose not to press charges. Officers released him with a warning.
  • A 5th Street caller reported a man in a dark hoodie with a backpack walking back and forth at 4:43 am. The man kept lying down on someone’s porch. Officers caught up with the man on the steps of a 5th Street home. He told police he was there to access WiFi from a friend’s apartment. He was unsure if the friend was home. Police advised him to move on.

Under The Influence

At 7:30 am, witnesses reported an apparently high man getting close to traffic on the Scioto Trail. When police checked it out, they spoke to the guy, he explained he was walking to the Four Keys Inn.
