An anonymous caller stated that a blue Kia was blocking her driveway on N. Hickory Street and had been there for the last two days. Police observed a blue Kia bearing a temporary tag. The vehicle was not in front of the driveway, however, the vehicle was on the side of the road facing the wrong direction and parked more than a foot from the curb; it was not creating any traffic hazard. Upon further investigation, two bullet holes were discovered on the front side of the car. Rust could be seen where the bullets made an impact to the vehicle, suggesting that they were old. Since police could not get in contact with or determine an owner, no citations were written. Due to the possibility of the vehicle being abandoned and not properly registered, an Orange "48-hour warning" sticker was placed on the front windshield in the top left corner. After 48 hours, police will check if the vehicle has been moved or properly registered and tow it if it has not.
