12 p.m. A woman living at an apartment complex on Ericksen Avenue reported a series of harassment incidents to police. The woman’s sister also lives at the apartment complex and a feud has arisen between their daughters. The feud began because of a boy that dated both of their daughters.

The woman had found screws in her tires over the last few months. Her car had also been keyed.

Her dog had also become very ill recently after she witnessed her niece throwing food at it. She thinks the dog was poisoned, but the animal is better now. The woman has no proof that the incidents were caused by her sister or her kids.

Whenever her sister’s family sees her daughter they yell derogatory insults at her.

Police advised her that she should call if problems persist.
