VERGENNES — Vergennes police between April 21 and 27 dealt with issues related to homeless individuals, sparring former couples, and juveniles allegedly harassing neighbors.

Actions included conducting 18 traffic stops, eight cruiser patrols, responding to two false alarms and processing three fingerprint requests. Police also:

On April 21:

• Printed out a report on a 2022 theft case for a citizen.

• Took a complaint from a Main Street resident that a television station had filmed his truck outside his residence. Police said the complaint was unverifiable and unfounded.

• Issued restorative justice paperwork to Timothy Farr, 71, unhoused with a last known address of Middlebury, after determining he had in the previous two days allegedly slept without permission in a Monkton Road garage, unlawfully entered a car parked at Vergennes Union High School, and slept without permission on a nearby porch. Police said none of the involved parties reported any damage or theft. Police said if Farr does not complete the restorative justice program, he will be cited to appear in Addison County District Court in August to answer to charges of unlawful trespass.

• At the city police station conducted a drug influence evaluation at the request of Vermont State Police following a motor vehicle crash. The evaluation concluded the driver was impaired by a substance other than alcohol.

On April 22 responded to a report of an argument between a man and a woman at New Haven Road Laundromat, but the couple left before police arrived.

On April 25:

• Went to New Haven Road to check out a report of vehicle parked in the greenspace blocking the view from the exit of a nearby driveway. The vehicle owner said he would move it shortly and not park there again.

• Checked a suspicious vehicle complaint on Main Street and found a man pulled over to use Wi-Fi for a phone call.

• Referred to the Addison County State’s Attorney’s Office for review an alleged violation of a relief-from-abuse order filed against the male half of a sparring couple. The case started with the man complaining his ex-wife did not show up for a custody exchange and that her new partner had made an obscene gesture at him. But police said they learned “it was not the reporting party’s scheduled weekend for parent-child contact,” and that the man’s ex-wife reported receiving text messages and an email she believed were violations of the order. Police determined the man’s son sent the email from a shared account without permission. Police said the content of the texts was allowable under the relief from abuse order, but the email was not, and contacted the state’s attorney’s office.

• Responded to a report of two juveniles engaging in disorderly conduct toward a neighbor in the city. The juveniles were accused of making obscene gestures, leaving inappropriate notes, and during the week before pushing a neighbor’s child into the roadway. According to the police report, officers spoke with the juveniles and their guardian, advised them to avoid further contact, and counseled them on appropriate behavior. Police said both juveniles agreed to be respectful moving forward.

• Went to Basin Harbor Road in Ferrisburgh to help VSP with an argument at a home.

• Helped a motorist on Route 7 who ran out of gas by flashing cruiser lights because the vehicle was stopped partially in the roadway.

On April 27:

• Took a report from a MacDonough Drive resident of a lost driver’s license and Social Security and debit cards.

• Went to a South Maple Street home to mediate a dispute between a homeowner and a homeless person who had been allowed to stay temporarily, and then refused to leave. The person left before police arrival but was later found and told not to return to the house.
