Jan. 28: A Jeep Cherokee was damaged in the Carmack 3 parking lot. The owner of the jeep had parked it there on Jan. 28, and upon returning to the vehicle on Feb. 2, found the driver’s door lock and steering column had been damaged.
The driver’s door lock was pried with a tool, rendering the door lock inoperable. The left side of the steering column was peeled and the steering wheel was no longer locked in place with the ignition in the off position.
Damaged machine gives free food
Jan. 31: An AVI vending machine was damaged, allowing free food to fall from it. A report was sent to AVI that people were receiving free items from a snack machine in Baker Systems.
It was discovered that necessary parts of the machine had been pried off. No entry was gained to the inside of the machine, but products could be removed by shaking the machine, causing the spiral product holders to move forward to the glass in the door and dropping the product into the dispensing tray.
The machine has now been bolted to the wall to prevent this from happening again.
