Police & Fire news from the Cleveland area. it/that. Read our pinned tweet now. Multiple OHIxx IPN dispatchers steal our tweets instead of listening to a radio
COMMON SENSE: Info from our team's scanners is fluid, seldom absolute & evolves fast. We strive for accuracy, but don’t hear every update. Karen: Nothing we tweet is official on behalf of your city.
Sarcasm & snark included. We delay and/or obscure sensitive info on purpose.
Lorain: Home Depot. Female started working today. Staff put her in the training room. They forgot about her, left for the day, and she is locked inside the store.
Please stop asking us about Southpark Mall. There is a heavy police presence at multiple malls through NE Ohio. This is not different. There are not busloads of rioters coming down I-71. Just a TON of rumor mongering because white teenage girls have never seen a police car.
North Olmsted: Disturbance, Great Northern Mall, Macy's parking lot. Report of a female in her 50s wearing a light pink dress, a diaper, a baby bottle in her hand, and sucking on a pacifier, crawling around in the parking lot and on the grass.
Rocky River: Yoga Fight - RR Park: Caller reports Yoga class on the deck is taking over the whole park, people are getting upset, and a fight is going to break out.
Namaste.
I haven't heard it on the scanner yet, but rumor has it there's a dumpster fire coming in from out of state on a charter plane soon. Reportedly headed for Berea.
Lakewood: Edgewater Towers. Caller complaining the "entire 7th floor hallway is full of marijuana smoke."
Ummm yeah, everyone is locked in for two weeks. Go get a contact buzz and relax.
Lakewood ~ Overdose - location withheld - M states he took 7 grams of mushrooms, and they dehydrated his body. So he's trying to rehydrate himself by drinking a lot of water but now he thinks he's killing himself with all the water he's drinking.

Dear restaurants in the age of COVID: Poke a couple holes in that styrofoam and let that steam vent instead of condense. It makes a huge difference. No one wants a soggy burger and fries.
Westlake: In a totally different world from downtown Cleveland today... complaint of a white Lambo, a black Maseratti, and a black Audi racing each other up and down the streets at Crocker Park.
Define irony: A fanbase that calls Roethlisberger a "rapist" is hopeful that the
#Browns
sign a guy accused of sexual misconduct by more women than I can literally count on my fingers and toes.
Public Service Announcement: If you're going to stop on a ramp between two major interstates because you're scared" just go home for the day. Please. Before you cause a collision and get people injured or killed.
If you're drinking and reading this and thinking of heading home. Find an Uber. OSP is all over making traffic stops. We already tweeted a fatal accident tonight with alcohol a factor. Don't push your luck. That is all.
Brunswick: Shoplifting. Male left the store with approx $400 of merchandise... mostly Bud Light and adult diapers.
Somebody's Super Bowl party is going to be off the chain... and, no need to miss the commercials with those pesky potty breaks.
Independence: Rockhaven Dr. Caller complaining that the kids at North Park are too loud playing basketball with their music playing.
It's like 3pm on a Sunday and the weather is nice. What is anyone calling police for kids playing in a park for?
Magic Johnson shocks - well, everyone - and announces he’s stepping down as president of the Lakers. Says he’s not yet spoken to Jeanie Buss to tell her. Says he’s sick of tampering rules, he’s tired of the “backstabbing” & says he didn’t want to disappoint Jeanie by firing Luke.
Someone killed on an electric scooter by a driver under the influence of drugs or alcohol (and while the PIO statement doesn't state it, was passed out when PD arrived). Quick, let's have a chat about the safety of the scooters.
I think you're missing where the problem is.
LIVE: On scene where woman riding electric scooter hit by car, killed in downtown Cleveland Saturday. Is use of scooters cause for concern? Chat with

Lakewood: Fight. Emerson Middle School. Kids having a fistfight over a sports game.
Honestly, this seems like one of the most normal things we've heard in a while - and no guns involved. They have to break it up, but 🤷♂️
If you're eligible, I have to tell you, the mass vaccination clinic at the Wolstein Center is simple, quick, and is chugging along like a well oiled machine. The ODH website shows lots of availability tomorrow:
Cleveland Hts ~ Other - Coleridge - F rpts returning home to find her driveway repaved. She did not hire anyone to repave it, though, and was afraid she'd be charged. CHPD notes that someone did in fact pave the wrong drive.

You guys read a lot about what we deem more interesting out of a lot of radio chatter. What about a double click a bit deeper?
I'm thinking about a project where we take 2 hours over a course of nights and tweet every call from a given Cleveland Police district. Thoughts?
Ok that was a refreshingly boring run on the scanner tonight. Good job, Cleveland! The dumpster fire was confined to inside the debate venue instead of outside. I agree with some of our followers and will take that as a win tonight.
Berea: Noise Complaint. Loud music from Browns training camp. (Seriously, real call...)
C'mon guys - they're celebrating being ready to win the preseason again. Leave them alone!
Independence: Disturbance. Top Golf. Aggressive male, no shirt, breaking windows. Now running down Rockside Woods towards Rockside Rd w/ a green hoodie on.
Berea: Elderly white male who answers to the nickname "Captain Rebate" currently setting fire to what is left of the
@Browns
facility on Lou Groza Blvd. Mary Kay will have the deets once she gets her talking points from Dee Haslam.
Lakewood: Report of male screaming on 2nd floor at Edgewater Cove. LPD found him, he's in his apartment singing with his headphone on.
🎵 Roxanne, you don't have to put on the red light... 🎵
CLE ~ Disturbance - W32/Barber Ct - super fast peacock on the loose. Not an escapee from the zoo, either. "We have a peacock fleeing from the police at a high rate of speed." "They're really fast".

Lakewood: 12029 Clifton. Prez of the condo/apt board called, said there are 4 small juvs out mowing the lawn and she "wants them arrested for trespassing. One of them is in a wheelchair."
Ok, the rest of the posse has called it a night and I've been doing this on and off (mostly on) since 6am. Our annual winter weather insane Tweet day is coming to a close. Seems like folks have wisely decided to get off the roads. Goodnight!
Brooklyn ~ Disturbance - Chipotle's - store abruptly closed due to short staffing. About 40 cars lined up in takeout lane, getting angry due to burritto deprivation. Advised business to come up with a more customer friendly resolution. -BW
Garfield Hts ~ Disturbance - Mcd's - M, dissatisfied w/his ice cream cone, threw same at cashier, striking her in face. Then he drove off, not appreciative of the fact that the ice cream machine was actually working.

Euclid ~ Disturbance - Pizza place - F, upset with a bad pizza from last night, threatened to bring said pizza back to the store and hit the manager with it. In turn, the manager threatened to stab the F if she came to the store. -BW
So
@fox8news
just spent 19 minutes for coverage of rain in the viewing area and a tornado warning for a county barely in the viewing area that was "radar indicated" which we all know means "no tornado". 19 minutes. Because it is raining. So brave. Call the Peabody jurors.
Solon: Other, 422 @ Hawthorne. Female just gave birth in her car on the freeway. Baby is awake and crying. FD transporting both mother and baby to Hillcrest.

Another satisfied Facebook follower. It's ok Joey Cleveland, you can go back to the housewives of whatever FB neighborhood group you're in to answer the always pressing question "did you hear that boom?" buddy.
Medical call for a male in an apartment who "injured himself in the bowels with an air compressor."
I don't want to know, but Brunswick gonna be Brunswick...

A very agitated fellow from Japan flew here on promise that he'd meet Bone Thugs 'n Harmony, CPD used translate app to arrange with someone on Facetime who will arrange for him to meet the band members -BW
Non-Scanner Post: Mason Rudolph is starting a football game this week. He's 100% less likely of being beat with his own helmet if he refrains from using the n-word.
1. You can't edit a tweet
2. Wearing a hoodie on an 87 degree day in NE Ohio humidity is what we call "a clue"
3. If you find this tweet offensive you probably should block us now before you suffer permanent damage from our other tweets. We're sarcastic and we like it that way.
Lakewood: Caller asking for police because there are people congregating on the patio at Dairy Queen and he is a concerned citizen who feels they are not practicing social distancing.
Of course he's not concerned enough or have balls enough to tell them himself.
Euclid ~ Shots Heard - Lakeshore Blvd - F caller rpts hearing one gunshot from her high rise apt. Then called back later to cancel the call, as it was just the egg she was boiling that exploded in the pan.

Brook Park ~ Disturbance - Zoom car Wash - M is bathing himself in cherry foam wash. He's now out by the vacuums still scrubbing himself. He took a brush head off the wash.
