Sisters Sheriff's calls

• A man complained that city snowplows were pushing snow into his driveway.

• A young man collapsed in the street due to a seizure. An ambulance crew transported him to the hospital.
  
  
• Deputies assisted Cloverdale firefighters at the scene of a small blaze that started when a space heater was placed too close to a dog bed.
  
  
• A man and a woman are having an ongoing public dispute over possession of a cell phone.
  
  
• A deputy had to haze cattle off a roadway and back through a hole in the fence through which they had escaped. The owner was notified of his wayward bovines.
  
  
• A man complained that a delivery driver repeatedly drove over his property after being told not to.
  
  
• A suspected shoplifter got snotty when confronted at a Sisters business, then nearly ran over a pedestrian splitting the scene.
  
  
• An anonymous caller from Tollgate complained that pedestrians are walking shoulder-to-shoulder down the road. This is bad because cars must yield to them. The pedestrians are -- obviously -- attempting to force a new vote in the subdivision regarding a pedestrian and bike path.

The connection is clear...

• Many a car slid into a ditch -- or a tree -- on icy roads. Fortunately, there were no serious injuries.
