The LCSO received an anonymous letter at 1:06 a.m. at the door to Wilbur PD. The letter stated that the writer has lived in Wilbur for some time and noticed the black truck driven by the head of public works “likes to put his foot into it” when driving through city streets. The writer says they see deputies positioned on highway 2 and advised that they can watch it happen if they park near the fire station by city hall. The writer further stated that they would not provide their name because they did not want to be harassed and continued to say the driver would hurt someone.

At 4:01 p.m., the LCSO received a phone call from an unidentified woman refusing to identify herself until deputies could guess her name. Deputies reportedly asked several times if the woman needed help, but she did not elaborate until they “played her game.”

An unknown claimant contacted the LCSO requesting for an ambulance at her residence at the Rural Resources Housing to check her blood pressure because she thinks it is high due to ongoing harassment from a group of people. She claimed that a male who is a member of a “famous people cult” keeps calling her.

A woman called LCSO thinking her stolen motorhome is in Reardan. Deputies report that a vehicle matching the description was in front of the Dot building in Spgraue. Dispatch called Washington State Patrol and informed them of the situation. A unit was sent from Ritzville to confirm the plate and see if the motorhome was still there.

A woman called LCSO reporting that her husband had too much to drink and had gotten a board or 2x4. Deputies report that the woman started to get very animated in her voice and crying. According to reports, a call was made to the area units to head to the address for a possible DV situation immediately. Once the woman was calmed down on the phone she explained that her husband had been to Spokane, came home and began drinking. After a few drinks, he got up and passed out onto the couch and appeared to be choking. She then stated everything is fine her husband has regained consciousness and everything is fine. She went on and stated no ambulance was needed and that she was safe and did not need deputies or medical.

After a conversation with a deputy that lasted 7 minutes, the deputy reported that the man talked about crips and bloods and how he would like to see cops go away since he is an ex-convict. He was also concerned that schools are turning boys into girls and how bad Donald Trump treats women. He claimed he would also legally pickit with lots of guys.
