Creek Diva: Joy Ride, Angry Drivers and A Driver Who Was Packing Heat.

Walnut Creek police reports from Nov. 6 to Nov. 8.

Saturday, November 6

Staying busy! The WCPD arrested six subjects on public intoxication charges all before 1 a.m.

Smashed windows. A man reported that his car was parked on Civic Drive next to Civic Park and was badly vandalized. Three large rocks were thrown at the black Volkswagen GTI that resulted in various broken windows.

Not so joyful ride. A woman lost her car keys inside the 1515 Lounge at 1:11 a.m. The CHP recovered the unoccupied car on the freeway near Monument Boulevard. It appeared to have been damaged in a collision.

Four strikes and it’s time to dry out. A woman was allegedly drunk outside her apartment on the 1500 block of Sunnyvale Avenue at 3:27 a.m. She was arrested on charges of felony DUI and she reportedly has had three prior DUI arrests.

Concealed firearm. A routine traffic stop at Lawrence Way at 3:03 p.m. that resulted in a man's arrest for having a concealed firearm in a vehicle. 

Monday, November 7

Marijuana possession. A solicitor was cited for being in possession of marijuana on the 800 block of Kane Circle this afternoon.

Nice job, janitor! A man found a cell phone while working at Heather Farm Park and Creek Diva is happy to report the owner was able to retrieve it. Well done.

Tuesday, November 8

Golf clubs, bike stolen. A set of Callaway golf clubs was stolen from an unlocked Lexus on the 1000 block of Homestead Avenue overnight.  In the same neighborhood, a bike rack and a Bianchi white/teal road bicycle was stolen from a car on El Caminito.

Angry drivers. Creek Diva has noticed a spike in road rage calls to the police recently. Perhaps the impending holidays have people overly stressed? Readers, how do you deal with angry drivers?
