35 hours

As I said the schedule was short and realized we were short for day shift, I volunteered for 3 extra day shifts, while already working swings. Effectively working from 6 am-11 pm.

It started on Friday getting off at 11:45 pm, due to covering calls that were backed up. I did get to take a car home with me, to save time downloading.

It started slow on Saturday
-traffic stop
-fight in the north pond, called off for a closer unit
-traffic stop, with a gentleman who didn't hear my sirens or see my lights
-trespass call hunters on someones property. 12 guys wandering a thick wetland areas with shotguns. The owner of the property mad they were on his property, the hunters accessing the wetlands properly. Me with my AR-15 in the tall moist grass trying not to get shot with buck shot.
-a stolen car. he parked it on a road while elk hunting. he came back and couldn't find it, he searched 3 days thinking he just was on the wrong road, before reporting it.
-hit and run. someone backed into his utility trailer
-civil call, "my nephew won't give property to me. i want you to come to the north edge of the pond and make him give it back" -maam we don't do that
-civil call, (same lady), "my nephew stole the property", -maam you have take him to civil court
-911 hang-up, kids playing with phones
-traffic stop

-assault....the civil call from earlier. the lady went to the nephew's house to demand the property and was allegedly assaulted. called off after another north pond unit took it
-suspicious. people are artifact hunting on ground without a permit. the responsible left before i arrived. they live out of the area. i contact the pond where the suspects live in and request contact with them.
-harassment. the family wants the girlfriend of the one brother to leave their property and stop calling. The girlfriend wants to tell me the whole story and so does the family. I do the quick version. everyone is trespassed from calling or coming onto the others property, if you do you go to jail. family understands, girlfriend wants to argue and bring up petty crap.

I attempt to get a bite of food, but...
-theft/suspicious. another unit calls for a second unit. there is a different person removing artifacts from a burial ground. the lady hides in the bushes. she has artifacts in her pockets and was attempting/about to, remove part of a skull. Turns out the area is a burial ground....She trespassed through private property to get to the grounds. She drove a car with alter VIN, no registration, altered plates, no insurance and no license to the grounds and parked infront of a HUGE no trespassing sign. She goes to jail.
-car accident. which turns out to be less of a car accident and more of a drunk person needing medical
-fight. 8 youths fighting. no one around when we get there.
-juvenile problem, out of control youth
-follow up on the hit and run, trying to figure if neighbors vehicle was responsible, it wasn't
-suspicious. an ATV flipped off road. It is at the top of a forest road 3 miles out, on the side of a steep incline. It is dark and I can't find the VIN to prove it's stolen or what. I check the hospital, no odd injuries.
-traffic stop

-dead person, it gets re-assigned
-disturbance. two eight year olds were playing and hit each other. parent #1 got mad at parent #2 for having a kid who hit his kid. parent #1 hobbles over to #2 and starts screaming/cursing. #1 says" how would you like to be hit?" and does a "fake punch" which makes contact with 8 year old. #1 then tries to jab #2 with his crutch. #1 leaves and knocks over a flower pot.
