March 2, 2024

A citizen caught a stray dog in the 500 block of Porter. The dog was impounded and reunited with its home.

A man was seen relieving himself near businesses on South Main Street. He left in a truck. Police were unable to intercept or identify him. (Though uncouth and perhaps unsanitary, peeing is not necessarily a crime. But police are typically dispatched nonetheless.)

Police were dispatched to I-76 to check on a suspected drunk driver. The suspect made it to Roggen before Keenesburg could catch up. The information was passed on to CSP and WCSO for their interdiction.

March 3, 2024

Police investigated a disabled vehicle, reported as suspicious because its horn sounded repeatedly. The driver was driven home and police suggested he return in the daylight when he was less likely to disturb people or appear suspicious.

A hit-and-run driver struck the crossing gate at the railroad tracks and Market Street. Police are trying to identify the run driver. Kudos to BNSF for getting it repaired quickly.

Police were dispatched to WCR 398 near the RV park to see about two dogs running in traffic. They were later impounded by Public Works.

March 6, 2024

An owner reported her truck stolen from the unit block of W. Morgan Avenue. The investigation remains underway to identify suspects.
