This week's edition of the Police Log is brought to you by the word "lodged." During the week, Forest Grove Police officers were engaged in 516 incidents, both reported and self-initiated. Here are a few of those calls: - Officers were called to check on a man seen walking around a store parking lot with his trousers down and clearly going commando. The man was located and subsequently arrested for trespass as he had been barred from returning to that location, which was also a violation of his probation. He was lodged at the jail.
- A patrol officer stopped a subject, known to be on probation for burglary, exhibiting signs of drug use and attempting to enter a house on Maple Street. They were arrested for violating their probation and lodged at the jail.
- Officers responded to a report of an escalating altercation between two people at an apartment complex. On arrival, officers found one person had thrown a perfume bottle at another, causing injury. The fragrance flinger was arrested and lodged.
