SUSPICIOUS
Oct. 16
1:16 a.m., Bass Lake Road, Munson. I just heard someone walking around my property. I heard their footsteps in the mud. I had my saw going so I couldn’t tell how many people were there but I could hear them walking. I’m still in the garage. The big door is closed and the little door is closed. It was a person, not an animal. I said I was going to get my gun (which I don’t have) and then I heard them running. My girlfriend and two dogs are inside the house. They are sleeping. I was going to file a report last week when stuff came up missing from the garage. The only weapon I have right now is a pocket knife. I build furniture. I heard a stick break and then footsteps. That’s when I yelled and then I heard them running. Deputy checked the area and nobody was found. No signs of persons in the yard. Complainant never saw a person, only heard noises.
