Cows in the road, 11/20/13 Four good-looking cows were apparently tired of roaming the hills of Moraga and decided to visit the intersection of Crossbrook Drive and Greenfield Drive around 9:30 a.m. It's unclear if this was covered at the police academy, but officers encouraged the foursome out of the street and away from traffic. The ranch owner arrived and wrangled the cows.
Neighbors burglarized, 11/20/13 Two homes next to each other on Fernwood Drive were burgled. The thieves entered through an unlocked rear door at one home and via an unlocked garage door at the other place during daytime hours. Apparently the thieves like Apple products; they stole two older Apple MacBook Pro laptops from one house and an iPad and Apple laptop from the other.
Possession of marijuana, 11/21/13 An anonymous person reported a suspicious vehicle parked on Claudia Court. Police located the car and discovered that one of the occupants was in possession of less than an ounce of marijuana. The teenager was placed in the Town of Moraga Juvenile Diversion Program.
Attempt to stiff cab driver, 11/23/13 It was almost 3 a.m. when a group of Saint Mary's students refused to pay a cabby for the ride he provided to their Ascot Drive apartment. Once he was compensated, the driver did not wish to pursue a citizen's arrest.
TP and vandalism, 11/22/13 Sometime during the night unknown suspect(s) vandalized a home on Augusta Drive: a tree was toilet papered and two cars parked on the driveway were egged and splattered with an unknown substance and written on with a permanent marker. One of cars had a cracked windshield as well. No longer a prank ...
Low key prank, 11/22/13 A Miramonte Drive resident called police to report not one but two suspicious circumstances; a neighbor's potted plant had been moved to her doorway, then a couple of hours later a branch from a tree in the common area was placed across her walkway. The person reporting the incidents claims to have no issues with anyone in the development. Cops agreed to keep a close eye on the neighborhood and patrol more during the evening hours.
