Bike Taken from Salvation Army; Teen Caught Stealing from Kohl's

The following information was supplied by White Lake Township Police. Arrests and charges do not indicate convictions.

Officers from the White Lake Police Department were called to the Salvation Army in White Lake Oct. 14 after a worker there reported his mountain bike missing.

According to the report, the worker told police he had left the bike chained to a telephone pole at the store on Oct. 13 because the weather had turned rainy and he didn't want to ride it home.

He told police, the report states, that the bike was missing when he returned to the store the next morning.

Lt. Adam Kline said the chain holding the burnt orange mountain bike had been cut.

There are no suspects at this time, and the incident remains under investigation.

Shirt taken from Kohl's

A 16-year-old Waterford resident was arrested on charges of retail fraud on Oct. 15 after a loss prevention officer told police the teen had tried to take a shirt from Kohl's.

The report states that the teen entered a dressing room with a $50 shirt. The loss prevention officer then witnessed the teen leaving the room without the shirt, the report states.

Kline said the loss prevention officer told police the teen attempted to leave the store, and did not stop at a register to pay for the shirt she had concealed under her clothes.

The teen was detained until police arrived. When police arrived they arrested the teen, and released her to her parents. A juvenile petition will be filed with Oakland County probate court, Kline said.

stealing this guy's bike is like having stolen someone's car. How is he supposed to get to and from work now? That's awful.

It would be helpful to know, if it actually was seismic testing. Following the last episode (byRead More West Bay) it was noted, at the Highland Twp Board meeting by the Sheriff's office, that residents would receive notification prior to any such future events. If so, who received notice and how was this communicated? An announcement in the "Patch" would have been useful.... The Tues. June 25th TOWN HALL 6 - 8pm, by the WRC (Water Resources Commissioner) Jim Nash, will provide an abundance of information on issues re oil/gas drilling and fracking, which EVERYONE needs to know due to impacts on both surface and ground (well) water. Particularly, those who have been approached with an oil/gas lease (ie; near Clyde Rd & Hickory Ridge, re exploration for drilling on the 'soccer field'). People need to know what they are getting into. If it comes to drilling/fracking, seismic testing will be seen as trivial.

After the last round of explosions I contacted Patrick Gibson at West Bay Exploration Company andRead More was told that yes, they have been conducting tests in the area over the last 18 months and "The impact of these charges is barely audible at the surface and would not sound like an explosion on neighboring property. Landowners affected by the survey are contacted through the mail so that they are aware of our timing. I am not sure what your mysterious explosions were, but I am pretty sure they were not the result of our surveys." In the press release provided by Laura Vogel today Oakland County Water Resources Commissioner Jim Nash says Thousands of acres of land in Oakland has been leased to Jordan Exploration. I am again confused. Do both companies have leases in Oakland County? Is it legal for them to detonate dynamite at all hours?

So, Patrick Gibson can check West Bay records then KNOW if their testing occurred on Sat. 6/15/13Read More 9pm, instead of being 'pretty sure'. Guess I'll have to call Pat .... Getting answers to your questions re the companies involved, Gerry, can be mysterious too --- but, likely just a technicality as this industry includes 3 types, to: explore; drill; and extract (and/or frack). So, nailing anyone down to answer questions or get a commitment is elusive at best. Change the way the State of Michigan is obligated by legislation to foster the oil and gas industry, to instead protect public health. Support the ballot initiative: LetsBanFracking.org
