MPD Daily Significant Calls 06/24/2018 to 06/25/2018

June 25, 2018 9:20 AM

The information contained in my blog is derived from notes provided by MPD Officers-In-Charge (OIC) at the end of their shifts. Most narratives represent early and preliminary information that was gathered by an OIC from those in the field who were actively working cases. The OIC is sharing what they were being told, in the moment. In many instances, facts and circumstances, even the type of crime listed, can change as officers, detectives and investigators continue their work.

From 5:00 a.m. on 06/24/2018 through 5:00 a.m. on 06/25/2018, MPD received 424 calls for service.  This number does not include parking complaints or 911 misdials.  For purposes of clarification, the following abbreviations are short-hand for race designations: W=White, AA=African American, NA=Native American, H=Hispanic, ME=Middle Eastern, A=Asian, MR=Mixed Race, U=Unknown.  MPD shifts are staggered as follows: 1st detail=7 a.m. to 3 p.m., 2nd detail=12 p.m. to 8 p.m., 3rd detail=3 p.m. to 11 p.m., 4th detail=8 p.m. to 4 a.m., 5th detail=11 p.m. to 7 a.m.

To further break down the 424 calls for service for the past 24-hours this is how the calls came in per district: Central (70), East (85), Midtown (60), North (73), South (59), West (50), and Other (27).  Other=these are calls for service that either do not have a sector listed or the sector is not in the City.  For example, if one of our officers assists another law enforcement agency, their sector is not listed in our districts so therefore it is listed under "other."

 

1) CENTRAL: Assist EMS/Fire – 6/21 at 7:54pm. An update to an earlier reported call; a subject who was conveyed to the hospital following a medical emergency has passed away.

2) EAST: Information/Domestic Disturbance – 6/24 at 5:07am. An update to an earlier reported call; the victim (27-year-old HF) was in a disturbance with the suspect (37-year-old HM), with whom she used to be in a relationship, near North of the Bayou on Atlas Ave. At one point, the suspect forced the victim to get into his vehicle by making threats, and once in the vehicle, the suspect began driving recklessly and making further threats to harm the victim, showing the victim a knife at one point. The suspect ultimately lost control of the vehicle and crashed into a ditch, whereupon the victim was able to get away and contact police. The suspect was contacted by another police department and arrested for domestic false imprisonment and disorderly conduct while armed.

3) NORTH: Adult Arrest/Warrant – 6:53am. Officers responded to Kipling Dr for a suspect (26-year-old WM) who had a warrant for a probation violation. The suspect was arrested and taken to jail on this warrant.

4) CENTRAL: Information/Sexual Assault – 12:17pm. Officers contacted a victim (20-year-old WF) who believed she may have been sexually assaulted by an acquaintance the previous evening. Investigation continuing.

5) SOUTH: Substantial Battery – 1:31pm. A victim (46-year-old AAF) reported that she had been battered somewhere in the area of Taft St on the previous evening by the suspect (35-year-old AAM). The two were in an argument over personal property when the suspect punched the victim in the face, causing the victim to lose consciousness. Probable cause was developed to arrest the suspect on a charge of substantial battery. Investigation continuing.

6) EAST: Runaway Juvenile – 4:24pm. Officers responded to N Thompson Dr for a report of a juvenile subject (15-year-old AAF) who had run away from her residence. An attempt to locate was aired, and the juvenile was listed as missing in the appropriate databases. Investigation continuing.

7) SOUTH: Information – 6:02pm. An anonymous complainant reported to police that two juvenile subjects may have engaged in sexual contact with one another. Investigation continuing.

8) EAST: Burglary – 6:51pm. Officers responded to Hermina St for a report of a burglary. The victim (53-year-old WF) reported that someone had stolen several firearms from the residence. Investigation continuing.

9) EAST: Runaway Juvenile – 8:40pm. Officers responded to N Thompson Dr for a report of a juvenile subject (14-year-old WM) who had run away from his residence. An attempt to locate was aired, and the juvenile was listed as missing in the appropriate databases. Investigation continuing.

10) EAST: Disturbance – 1:45am. Officers responded to Major Ave for a report of a disturbance. The victim (30-year-old WM) reported that the suspect (28-year-old WM), an acquaintance, had entered the residence while the victim was sleeping and began strangling and threatening the victim with a knife. A physical fight ensued following this initial encounter. The suspect was eventually arrested for 2nd degree recklessly endangering safety, strangulation, burglary, and disorderly conduct, and he was taken to jail.
