Multiple Property Damage Reports Filed Last Week
Northfield Village Police responded to two separate property damage incidents during the last week of April.
On April 29, officers investigated a complaint at a residence on Kennedy Boulevard where a homeowner reported damage allegedly caused by a garbage truck. According to the report, the truck may have “pulled a cable wire off of the residence resulting in the damage.” The homeowner requested documentation of the incident.
In a separate incident on May 1, officers assisted with a residential lockout on McKinley Drive. Due to a power outage and the resident lacking keys for deadbolts, both police and fire departments made entry with the homeowner’s permission. The report indicates the “homeowner knew damage would occur and requested NVPD and NVFD make entry.”
