DISORDERLY: At 3:37 p.m. officers were dispatched to the 300 block of Harrison Avenue for an assault that just occurred. The female stated two males in a pickup truck came to the residence to drop property off to an ex-girlfriend. After dropping the property off, the male passenger of the truck, identified as the son, punched her in the face. A nearby resident had cameras, and officers were able to get video and see the truck in the street. The female can be seen approaching the passenger side. Conversation appears to be happening. One of the males was seen taking off his shirt and attempting to go to the truck, but a female is seen holding him back. The truck began to pull away an the female walked along with the truck until it was out of view. The female is seen coming back into the frame, getting in a red car, and driving off at a high rate of speed. Officers did not observe any punch or slap by anyone. On July 3, the son was contacted, and the father advised he took his son to his ex-girlfriend’s house to drop items off. During that time, the son was upset and crying. He was yelling out the window for her to come and talk to him. The father stated a female approached his passenger side and told them to leave, and the father attempted to leave but she was hanging onto the passenger side window area. He felt like he could not leave. The son stated that his ex cheated on him with the male who began yelling at him to get out and fight him. The son also stated the female who was hanging onto the truck was known to carry a firearm, and he observed her reach into her pocket and begin pulling out what he thought was a firearm. He stated he yelled to his dad she has a gun, and his father pulled the truck away from the area and headed home. Thirty minutes later the female and another pulled up to their residence in two different vehicles with the male who was trying to fight them. They began yelling for the son to come out and fight. The father exited the residence to speak with the male, and he told them to leave or he was calling 911. They exited the property but went to the next door apartment’s parking lot and continued to yell for the son to come out and fight. The female advised that if he didn’t come out she was going to call the police and say he smacked her. No one pressed charges and the case was closed due to lack of evidence, and nothing shows an assault took place.
