>* 2000 block of Marconi Avenue, arrest. Jamie M. Fox, 36, who is homeless, was arrested at 4:55 p.m. March 1 on suspicion of assault and battery. Come on! He’s got an Oscar and a song on the Top 40, how could he be homeless?
* 902 Caroline Ave., Galt, battery. A father reported that several children kicked his son in the backpack while he was wearing it. He had fallen on the ground on his way home from Fairsite Elementary School on Thursday when the attack occurred. Isn’t it pretty much implied that if you are kicked in the backpack, you are wearing it?
* 24580 Main St., Foresthill, arrest. A man was arrested at 9:30 a.m. Monday for allegedly striking another man over the head with a tree branch in front of the Sheriff’s Department substation. What’s funnier, the use of the tree branch or that the idiot committed the crime right in front of the police station?
* 3:21 p.m., an adult male was arrested at Round Table Pizza for an outstanding out-of-town warrant after being reported as having passed out at one of the tables. I think finding yourself being arrested because you passed out at a Round Table Pizza in the middle of the day is what is known as “rock bottom”.
* 10:54 a.m., several vehicles were reported for shooting a pigeon with a potato gun. I’d pay good money to see a vehicle shooting a potato gun, especially at a pigeon.

>Our local police logs are pretty funny also. I also enjoy the district court summaries. I’m always looking for someone I know (I’m in a very small town…)
