The following incidents were recently reported to the Georgetown County Sheriff’s Office and Georgetown police.

Mysterious attack
A 35-year-old man who was found in a pool of blood in the middle of Cohen Drive near Pleasant Hill refused to tell authorities how he got in that condition.
Once EMS arrived on the scene, the man reportedly started cursing at them while they were trying to get him ready to be transported to the hospital.
He had a bloody nose and road rash which caused swelling on the left side of his head.
When an officer asked the man if he had been beat he mumbled “yes” but would not give the name of his attacker.
On the road next to the blood was a bottle  of perfume called “Heavenly Kisses,” a flashlight, a nickel and two pennies.
Even after being treated for his injuries, the man would not cooperate with investigators.

Suspicious neighbor
A woman from Bluestream Drive in Pawleys Island called 911 to report she believes her neighbor is “sociopathic.”
She said her neighbor is a law enforcement officer but also said she has never seen a patrol car at the apartment.
The woman said the neighbor has a bucket outside his apartment which he uses as an ash tray “but he doesn’t put them out all the way,” she said.
She told deputies she feels this is a fire hazard and could burn the building down.
The woman also said her neighbor “uses a BB gun with a scope to shoot snakes and birds.”
The complainant said she believes this is why she has seen fewer woodpeckers this year.
The area was searched but no dead birds or snakes were found.

Butt-rubbing pick-pocket
A woman apparently did not have flirting in mind when she was fondling a man at the Hot Fish Club in Pawleys Island May 24.
The man told deputies he was talking to a woman wearing a long red dress and while they were speaking she was “continuously rubbing his butt,” the report states.
The man said the woman “continued to rub him and then very calmly took his wallet out of his pants pocket and walked away quickly.”
The man said he did not know the woman’s name.
The wallet contained  $100 in cash, various credit cards, a driver’s license and a health insurance card.

Counterfeit cash
A fake $10 bill was used to pay for groceries at Georgetown’s Piggly Wiggly store May 26.
The person accused of passing the funny money — a 45-year-old Georgetown woman — first told police she had no idea it was a counterfeit. She later confessed she tried to use it to buy marijuana from a man on Prince Street.
The woman’s sister gave Piggly Wiggly real money to pay for her sibling’s groceries.

Minor with beer
A police officer spotted a vehicle being driven at a slow speed on Highmarket Street at about 2:15 a.m. May 26. The driver then stopped at a gas station and a man on a bicycle approached the car.
The officer made a traffic stop on he car and asked the juvenile driver what had just happened. He said he was asking the man on the bike for a cigarette.
The car, with permission, was searched and “several very cold cans of beer” were found  in a tool box.
The teen was taken into custody.

Found porn
A woman from Mahogony Drive in Andrews sadi twice last week someone placed pornography on her front lawn.
The porn consisted of pages torn from a magazine. The first time, the woman burned the pictures in a ditch but decided to file a report when it happened a second time.
The pages were taken to be processed to see if any fngerprints can be detected.
