Deer whisperer: Officers initially found a male subject wandering near the retaining pond at Newport Way and 130th Avenue Southeast. He was behaving strangely and claimed to own the pond, but he asked for a ride to his residence, which the officers provided him. A few hours later, he had returned to the pond area and officers discovered that he had forced the gate open and had let some deer into the secure area. The subject again claimed that he owned the pond, but also admitted to having recently smoked marijuana and was making nonsensical comments to the officers. He was eventually transported to the hospital for an evaluation.

Sweeping psychosis: Callers reported a subject in the roadway on 156th Avenue Northeast swinging a broom at passing cars on 156th Avenue Northeast. Officers found her in the road and when she saw them, she fled into the nearby apartments. She was cornered in the lot and she began yelling, “Don’t eat me,” while was kicking and screaming. The woman was transported to the hospital.
