  • A caller said she sold a couch to a man in Perry who promised to pay but has not paid. She said he verbally threatened her when she contacted him. An officer responded, said it was a civil matter and advised her how to proceed. The caller said she would come to Perry to collect the money or retrieve the couch and asked that an officer of the Perry Police Department escort her. The officer said the escorting officer “will only be there to keep the peace” and “cannot make the subject give them money or return property.”
  • A caller said she received two calls “from the federal government stating that since she paid her taxes on time, they were going to send her $8,000.” The caller said she hung up on them.
  • A caller said a teenage boy was walking with a girl and smoking a cigarette. An officer responded but could not find the children.
