Burglary
Oct. 30 — A woman called 9-1-1 to report an apparent burglary at the Canterwood home she was charged with watching while the homeowners were out of town. An estranged female friend of the family’s daughter apparently has a key to the home and had been caught on multiple times by the reporting party as occupying the residence. A cab driver who had picked up the female suspect in Bremerton reportedly dropped her off at the home. The woman was unable to pay the $80 fare and told the cab driver she would give him a plasma TV set in exchange for the fare. She signed a receipt for the exchange using her name. The cab driver contacted deputies after returning the TV to the home. The woman who was house sitting found a laptop computer missing and believed to have been stolen by the same suspect. The homeowners didn’t know how the suspect came into possession of a house key. They were going to have all of the home’s locks changed.
Car prowl

Robbery with BB gun
Nov. 4 — A clerk at a Lakebay-area store was robbed by a white man described as 5 feet 6, 45-55 years old, with a clean shave and wearing a blue bandana. The suspect reportedly asked for a couple packs of cigarettes, and when the clerk turned around, the suspect allegedly was pointing a black revolver at the clerk. The suspect took about $500 from the store before he told the clerk to lie on the floor. The clerk told the responding deputy they may have heard the suspect leave in what sounded like a pickup truck. The deputy found a pistol grip half from the alleged weapon used in the caper. Investigators believe a BB-style gun was used to intimidate the clerk.
