10:51 a.m. A resident reported that his wife had woken up to the sound of their garage door opening at 2 a.m. on Jan. 27.

The couple did not check the garage until the next morning. They found the garage door open, and several Busch beer cans thrown into the bushes around their property.

The resident had reported a similar incident in late December, where someone had opened their front door in the middle of the night. There was nothing taken from the home in either incident.

Sunday, Feb. 2

2:22 p.m. A woman called police after her husband and son got into a fistfight. The woman told police that her son had been mouthing off to her.

At her breaking point, she retreated to her bedroom to get away from him. At this point, her husband stepped in and told the son to leave his mother alone and leave the house.

The confrontation quickly escalated when the son refused to leave. The father pushed the son out of the house, but the son proceeded to lunge at his father. Both began hitting each other.

The son was arrested for domestic assault, as he was the main aggressor.
