FROM THE LEAG COMMITTEE:
    On 9/29 at 11:15 am an incident started at the south PaaKo entrance.  A resident was approached while sitting in her vehicle, looking up directions, by a subject who threatened to assault her. The subject was in an older maroon car, (Toyota or Subaru), NM license number WYM004. The resident fled in her car-was chased up PaaKo Drive by the subject.  PaaKo security & BCSO were contacted.  Fred of PaaKo Security located the subject and detained him until the BCSO arrived and took over.  The subject was not taken into custody for this incident.  Shortly thereafter, the subject was at San Antonito Elementary School. The school called BCSO.  The subject again was not taken into custody.  The subject proceeded to the Shell station and was involved in a violent encounter that led to a third law enforcement response -he was taken into custody.  The subject is known to BCSO.  The resident was told the subject has been “mentally adjudicated” which makes it difficult to file charges that will stick.  He was placed on a 72 hour hold for mental evaluation.  The BCSO shared with the resident that the subject had a firearm removed from him 2 weeks earlier after a gunshot wound in his leg.  Please remain watchful for this vehicle and other suspicious activity and report to law enforcement. (If danger is imminent, call 911.  Paa-Ko Security 505-803-3075. BCSO Non-Emergency 798-7000.)
    On the same day, a relative of a resident had a run-in with the same man. The man’s car was parked in the middle of the road so the relative stopped to ask if he needed help. He said the man was up in the trees and came down limping badly saying he had shot himself in the leg. He then went to his trunk to get something-the relative immediately left  because he was worried the man was going for a gun.  He called BCSO and they came quickly, but later that day the man was still there. To see an image of the car and an image of the suspect, GO TO READ MORE and then to DOCUMENTS

FROM DAVID GREENBERG - LEAG COMMITTEE

Last Sunday afternoon (the 11th), around 3:30 pm, a Silver Blue Toyota Corolla with Texas plates number unknown, driven by a woman in dark glasses and a ponytail, drove into a circular driveway on Paako Drive with its windows open and music blaring.  The driver stayed long enough in the driveway for the owner of the property to go outside and investigate.  The driver threw something out the window and sped away.  The owner found a note that the driver had thrown out the window.  While the owner was reading the note, the car went out to the street and came back into the driveway, nearly hitting the owner. The sheriff was notified.

The note, in blue marker, said, “To Whomever is running this Lille (sic) Boat and Pony Show! I’m Govt! I’ve got Military Back-up! Leave me the Hell Alone! "
This was followed by a smiley face with an angel halo on top. 

Fortunately, no one was injured, but this could have been a very serious situation. 

If anyone recognizes this car or has had a similar experience, please call the Sheriff’s Office at 911, and Anthony, our security guard (505) 803-3075 if it's during his working hours.

This is my end of the year plea for dog owners to be responsible for picking up their dogs’ poop.  The poop is piling up on the streets of Paa-Ko and residents are complaining to me.  Some residents are going the extra mile on their walks and picking up other peoples dogs poop, and some are also picking up poop along the shoulder of the road in front of their properties.  Some of these people don’t even have dogs.  Not really fair to these kind souls.  Thank you to all who go that extra mile to clean up after others lack of responsibility.

I know ‘tis the season to believe in many things like Santa Claus, Rudolph, and Elf-on-the-Shelf, but the Poop Fairy isn’t on that list.
