Brecksville Police Blotter: Unwanted Calls and Criminal Mischief

Annoying phone calls:

A Brecksville man reported a series of phone calls to the police department on May 19. The man had documented six calls to three lines in his home from what he thinks is the same company during the past few months. After contacting his service provider, he was told to make a police report. 

Criminal mischief:

On May 18, police reported to the playground near the Brecksville Community Center to look into reports of graffiti. The graffiti included some text, a picture of "Sponge Bob" and the symbol for pi. 

The following day, police again reported to the playground. The women’s restroom there had been covered in paper hand towels. The area was noted for directed patrol attention in the future.

Wire fraud:

A Brecksville woman reported wire fraud on May 17. The woman had been trying to book a summer vacation in London and had been told to transfer money to the bank account of the owner of an apartment she wished to rent. After sending the money, she heard back from the supposed agent once and then not again. The woman closed her bank account before contacting the police.
