Sisters sheriff's calls

• Deputies assisted Jefferson County sheriff's personnel with the arrest of a 13-year-old girl after a fight at Suttle Lake.
• A deputy investigated a report of a faint cry for help in the woods.
  
  The deputy was unable to locate any person in trouble and the deer and squirrels weren't talking.

• A controversy between neighbors over allegedly stolen rocks was cleared up after it was determined that the rocks were not in fact on the aggrieved neighbor's property.
• A truck driver got stuck trying to turn his rig around and had to be towed from where he was blocking the westbound lane.
• A woman reported an attempted burglary at her home.
• Employees at a sandwich shop reported a man coming in to bother them.
• A man crashed another man's truck into a fence, then failed to report it.
• A Sisters teen was struck by a turning car while riding his bike along Camp Polk Road. The youth was banged up, but his injuries were not too severe.
• Deputies responded to multiple complaints about barking dogs. Maybe they don't like hot weather.

Black Butte Ranch Police:

• An officer tracked down a man who had broken the east gate arm with his Suburban.
  
  After being confronted with obvious paint transfer, the man acknowledged that he must have broken the gate without realizing it.
  
  Boy those Suburbans are tough.

• Officers ran down several bogus 911 calls that may have been the result of phone line problems.
  
  One call was apparently made by a computer.
  
  Perhaps it was reporting a virus?

Information in "Sisters sheriff's calls" is taken from log entries and reports of the Deschutes County Sheriff's Office and the Black Butte Ranch Police Department.
