• A man reported that a woman stood on her deck looking at him and his wife as they walked their dog by on forest land. The woman held a rifle. The woman has yelled at the couple in the past.

  It turned out the rifle was an air rifle. The woman told a deputy she would shoot trespassing dogs.

  The deputy told her that's illegal. So is menacing.

  The woman said she didn't care.

• A man was reportedly "playing with himself" behind city hall. Turns out he was sprucing up in the sprinklers.

• Someone pried open the door of a Sisters business and absconded with the day's start-up cash.
  
  
• A man showed up at a Sisters sewer pump station claiming to be with the city's engineering firm.

He wasn't.
