Creek Diva: Still Pining for Stolen Green Schwinn

Wednesday, August 22

Boo you, Gru! There is some rather tacky graffiti around town lately. Yes, you “Class.” This week's award goes to “Gru” who tagged up an AT&T box on Carmel Drive. Graffiti noted in reports to the Walnut Creek Police Department.

Well traveled bike. A bicyclist was stopped on Olympic Boulevard at 3:38 p.m. The police determined the bicycle was reported missing out of Santa Barbara two years ago. Creek Diva hopes her sparkly green 1970s Schwinn 10-speed shows up one of these years; she was away at summer camp in Santa Cruz only to come home and find out she was bikeless.

Enjoy Shell Ridge? Do not leave any valuables in your vehicle when parking on Marshall Drive. A Land Rover was recently broken into. A laptop, clothes and tax returns were stolen.
