Police Blotter: Vandalism, Animal Issues
The following arrest information was supplied by the Avon police department. It does not indicate a conviction.
A home and car in the 33700 block of North Fall Lake Drive were vandalized with shaving cream, toilet paper, stickers and sports drinks in the early hours of June 16.
The homeowner’s son told Avon police it may have been done by another boy he owes money to. Police suggested to him to make it known among the other neighborhood kids that any further shenanigans would lead to criminal charges.

Water, Water Everywhere
An Avon family will have a not-so-happy homecoming from their vacation after their home sustained water damage the evening of June 16. Water was pouring out a second-floor window when police arrived, and the fire department shut off power to the home because of all the water. The house will be under extra patrols by police until the homeowners return.
