11:29 a.m. A 62-year-old woman visiting Bainbridge Island from California called 911 to report a suspicious incident. She had been staying at her son’s home with her sister while her son was out of town.

She told police that at 10:30 p.m. or so the previous night, she and her sister had gone to sleep in the master bedroom when they saw a couple of flashes from a camera outside the bedroom window.

At 5 a.m. the next morning, she said she was in the bathroom when she saw a camera flash outside the window again.

Police checked outside the bedroom window and found nothing, and also checked outside the bathroom window and did not find any footprints. The vegetation also appeared undisturbed.

The woman said she would review the video from the home’s surveillance system to see if anything suspicious was recorded.

Neither driver was injured.

8:54 a.m. A 59-year-old Bainbridge woman said someone punched out a window to her car while it was parked in a carport on NE Emerald Way and stole her purse.

The Coach bag was worth approximately $400. Inside the purse was a checkbook, migraine medication, credit cards and other items.

When canceling her credit cards, she found one had been used at the Safeway to buy two $100 VISA gift cards, two cartons of Marlboro cigarettes, flowers, a telephone card and other items.

Police retrieved store surveillance video of two suspects. Both wore hoodies to hide their faces from view, but police could still see their faces.
