K77 managed to contact responsible party. He showed up and confirmed nothing was stolen and to lock the vehicle.

• K76 had multiple contacts with Beer Virus man all night long, over and over, but no arrestable offenses. After being told he was trespassed, he did not return to those locations. He is trespassed from McDonald's, the high school and the middle school property where the firefighters are. He was getting agitated more and more with each contact. He has a shirt that says "beer virus 2020" and wearing blue jeans.

• Unwanted subject at Gondolier. Business no longer welcomed said individual. Turned out to be Beer Virus man. K74 trespassed him from Beamis properties in Kellogg and since he has been trespassed from nearly everywhere else in Kellogg, was given a courtesy transport to Walmart.

• Welfare check at the Silver Inn. The hose draggers had to break the door down as the person that was inside was not responding and the dead bolt was locked. It turns out, the guy was just on the nod and not dying. Mr. Heavy sleeper was then trespassed as the management did not enjoy the door being damaged just to find out the person was just on the “nod” (to doze off when high on opiates.)

Be happy, be safe, don’t be a groupie.
