INJURED PARTY
For the second time in a week, police responded to the same room at a Savannah Highway hotel where the same man had apparently overdosed on heroin, again. Police entered the room and found the man lying motionless but breathing facedown on the floor of the bathroom. A guest in a neighboring room heard a commotion, walked over and found the front door open, and that the woman staying with the unconscious man had left. Emergency medical personnel sprayed the unresponsive man with Narcan, an opiate antidote. The man soon roused and admitted to having taken heroin, but refused further treatment.

ALL OTHER OFFENSES
Police responded to a woman’s house on Dolphin Watch Drive after she complained a man who seemed to be stalking her house told her he worked for Homeland Security. The man banged repeatedly on the woman’s door earlier, and then drove to the road directly behind her home in a car. With her boyfriend almost on the scene, the woman walked over to the man’s car and asked him what he was up to. The man then flashed a badge and reiterated he was with the federal agency and then drove off.

A man told police that he had fallen asleep at his daughter’s house with $2,100 cash in his pockets in $100 bills. Later, when he woke, he decided to go to a nearby store and buy a lottery ticket.

She denied his accusation that she had taken the money.

SIMPLE ASSAULT

SWINDLE
A Tribeca Drive woman with a 13-letter last name told police she had sent nearly $5,000 in iTunes and “steam” gift cards to a man she’d spoken with on the phone. The man claimed to be from the government and that her husband would be deported if she didn’t send him the money. The woman said she also sent more than $4,000 via a direct wire transfer, as her husband had not returned home from work at his usual time. The woman lost close to $9,000 in total.
