Thursday Police Report: Teenage Indiscretions

Two smaller police reports from The Northern Light today, both involving teenagers having things on their person that really should not have been there.

The first one happened on Friday, Oct. 1. Blaine police contacted a 17-year-old smoking a cigarette on a street just north of downtown Blaine. The police wanted to know more about the teen's illegal possession of a pack of cigarettes; they had no idea he was also in possession of something else.

As the teenager removed the pack of smokes from his pants pocket, a tablet of ecstasy accompanied the cigarettes on their journey. Police tested the tablet on-site and secured it as evidence. The teenager  was booked into Whatcom County's juvenile detention facility on investigation of felony drug possession.

The second report happened on Monday, Oct. 4, and tells the story of an 18-year-old who felt the need for some urgent hair care, apparently. The teenager was stopped by the security guard of a local convenience store as she was on her way out. She was allegedly carrying bottles of shampoo, conditioner and mousse; all of which she allegedly had no intention of paying for.

A Blaine police officer arrived at the store and arrested the teen on suspicion of shoplifting. She was later released with a court date. The pilfered hair products were returned to the store, unharmed.
