At a business on River Terminal Road, an employee told officers that two metal bars were stolen from an open shipping crate that was sitting on the lot.

When they returned there around the same time, they discovered that the bars were gone. She said that someone would have had to use some type of heavy machinery to get the bars out of the crate because they are very heavy. Otherwise, she said she has no idea who did this or how they did it. She said that the bars are made from a rare steel and worth $30,000 total.

The manager at the restaurant had yelled at them when they walked outside and Mr. Taylor stated he was scared the manager would hurt him, so he ran.

Police responded to a damaged property complaint at Landings Drive at Cameron Harbor. Officers contacted a man outside the residence "with socks on his hands, in his underwear and very confused just standing there. Officers asked him what he was doing and he stated at first he did not know and then as he came to he stated he was from Florida and was visiting his cousin. He said he took a red-eye flight and, after white water rafting and a bachelor party, he had not slept. He said he has been diagnosed with sleep disorders and one of those disorders is sleep walking. He stated he must have been sleep walking and walked out of his cousin's house who is the neighbor of the address where he was found on the front porch. Officers then spoke to the homeowners and they stated they heard someone trying to get into their house and when they looked on the ring doorbell monitor they saw a man standing on the porch with socks on his hands playing with the bbq grill and trying to turn the handle of the front door. The resident said they tried to talk to the man through the ring and, when they did, he began to play and eventually break the ring door bell. He said the man was unresponsive while they were trying to talk to him and just continued to stand on the front porch. Officers went next door and contacted the cousin who confirmed the man's story as far as knowing him and all that they did that day. He confirmed that he had a sleeping disorder and apologized for this. Both men said they would pay for the ring door monitor. The neighbor was okay with this "and didn't wish to press charges for a potential sleep walking incident."
