At 10:02 a.m. Saturday, Feb. 18 in Port Hadlock, a woman reported a burglary to her storage unit.

Someone cut the lock off, and the hasp was found on the ground nearby. The woman said her unit had been locked as recently as a week ago, but when she arrived, she discovered the lock had been cut.

The woman said it was apparent that someone had gone through her belongings. A deputy took fingerprints from the cut lock.

The woman said she was missing a full-face helmet and a small motorcycle helmet, and black leather vest and chaps. The loss was estimated at $2,350.

At 4:17 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 18 in Nordland, a resident reported a theft that occurred sometime between 3 and 5 p.m. the day before.

Two dozen eggs had been taken from a self-serve egg stand, and $20 in cash was also stolen.

There are no suspects.

At 1:09 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 19 in Port Hadlock, a resident reported an unwanted person on their property.

The caller could see a tent and believed a transient had set up camp. The resident wanted them removed.
