Winter Harbor Police Log Week of Feb. 18

WINTER HARBOR — Officer Philip Sargent responded to a report of a suspicious vehicle on Grindstone Court on Feb. 9.

Sargent found that the vehicle in question belonged to a local resident who was out walking his dogs and no further action was taken.

Chief Danny Mitchell also was notified of a suspicious vehicle parked at the end of Grindstone Avenue on Feb. 11.

The individual who reported the vehicle did not recognize it, saw footprints going down a gated path and heard what sounded like wood being thrown on the ground.

Mitchell checked out the situation and found nothing of concern.

Lost and found

Officer Ken Schuurman returned a wallet on Feb. 10 to a youth who lost it on Main Street.

Housing issues

Mitchell received a call on Feb. 4 from a resident renting an apartment on Main Street who said she had received a disconnection notice from Versant Power despite her rent including her electricity use.

Mitchell advised her it was a civil landlord/tenant matter and gave information on options to take care of the issue according to Maine statute.
