POLICE BLOTTER:<\/p>\n
A Kent Police officer pulled over a woman driver for driving without headlights at about midnight Dec. 1 near Second Avenue North and Smith Street. The officer soon discovered a few other troublesome things about her.<\/p>\n
She had a warrant on a prostitution charge out of Federal Way. She also had no proof of auto insurance. A police dog searched the car and located a marijuana pipe in the car\u2019s center console, according to the police report.<\/p>\n
Police arrested the woman for investigation of possession of drug paraphernalia. Officers also cited her for driving without headlights during dark and for not having car insurance.<\/p>\n
The woman told officers she no longer works as a prostitute. She also said she did not smoke marijuana and didn\u2019t know anything about the pipe found in the car.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Malicious mischief<\/p>\n
Police arrested a man for investigation of malicious mischief after he reportedly broke a motel-room window Dec. 4 in the 25000 block of Pacific Highway South.<\/p>\n
Police received a call of a possible domestic violence incident at the motel.<\/p>\n
A responding officer saw a man holding a piece of wood and trying to force his way into a room that his girlfriend occupied. The officer pulled out a Taser gun and ordered the man to drop the piece of wood. He hesitated, but then dropped the wood. The boyfriend reportedly had been having a dispute with his girlfriend and had broken a window at a room next door.<\/p>\n
Assault<\/p>\n
A woman told police that her live-in boyfriend of nearly three years had punched her in the face during an incident Dec. 1 at an apartment in the 23800 block of 30th Avenue South.<\/p>\n
Officers arrested the man for investigation of fourth-degree assault. The woman also sustained a bruised calf muscle during the incident, according to the police report.<\/p>\n
The woman told police she feared reporting the incident because she might get kicked out of her apartment. Officers told the woman they would give her information to a domestic-violence advocate to help deal with her boyfriend and her living arrangements.<\/p>\n
Robbery<\/p>\n
A man reportedly pushed another man against a wall and took his cell phone during an incident at about 7:45 p.m. Dec. 2 at a parking lot in the 400 block of East Smith Street.<\/p>\n
The person who called in the attack told officers he was text-messaging a friend on his cell phone, near where a scuffle broke out among several men he did not know. One of the men came over to him and demanded the cell phone.<\/p>\n
The man said he had refused to give up his cell phone, so the other man pushed him against a wall and grabbed it out of his hand.<\/p>\n
The man told police he thought the attacker might have taken the phone so he would not call police to report the fight.<\/p>\n
Police closed the case because of lack of information about the man who took the phone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
