Sisters Sheriff's calls

• An employee working late at a Sisters business reported that a man tried to kick the rear door in.
  
  The man reportedly kicked the door twice, causing significant damage to the door, but not succeeding in breaking in. The man fled and the employee did not see him.

• An ATV rider knocked over several mailboxes.
  
• A gas station owner reported finding a soda can in his bathroom with holes punched in it, allegedly set up for smoking marijuana.
  
  The owner wanted the police to fingerprint the can and track down the perpetrator and make an arrest. (Watching too much "CSI"?)
  
  A deputy told the man to just throw the can in the garbage.

• A deputy investigated a possible telephonic harassment case.
  
• A woman wanted to talk to her son-in-law. He didn't want to talk to her. He didn't want her on his property. The woman agreed to leave.
  
• A driver's car was hit by rocks as she drove through Sisters' streets. The perpetrator was allegedly a Sisters boy. His mom agreed to pay for the damage.
  
• A man called to find out proper procedure for kicking out his 18-year-old grandson who refuses to follow house rules.
  
• Deputies were called on to round up a loose horse, which wound up confinded in a neighbor's paddock.
  
• A Sisters man was cited for tossing a burning cigarette out of a vehicle he was riding in. This is a sort of dangerous season to be doing that kind of thing.
  
• Deputies responded to a report of a domestic dispute between a couple living in the woods near Sisters.
  
  A deputy gave the woman a courtesy ride back into town.
