Pranksters rearrange movie marquee in River Falls: "Peeing in da air"

 

By: Phill Pfuehler

Are investigating the mystery pranksters who somehow ascended the marquee at Falls Theatre late at night over the weekend and rearranged the movie letters to read, “Peeing in da air.” One of the letters was damaged. Did several pranksters hoist themselves upon each other’s shoulders to reach the top of the marquee or did someone bring a ladder? It’s unknown at this point.

There’s more to read in Police Beat. Check it out in the Jan. 27 print edition of the River Falls Journal.

In River Falls, break-ins can be handled with civility

 

It was almost 3 a.m. New Year’s Day. An 82-year-old woman woke to noises and lights turned on in her house in the 1300 block of South Main Street. She called out but there was no answer. So she got out of bed and found a young man standing in her bathroom.

Why are you here? she asked the man who seemed drunk.

He replied that a lady had told him to come stay in the house.

No, said the elderly woman, you’re mistaken and must leave.

The young man said OK he would go.

Because it was very cold outside, the woman reminded him to first put on his shoes, socks, coat, gloves and hat before leaving.

He did that and was soon gone.

The woman later found that her young intruder had broken through a service door in the garage. Once inside, he found a package of donuts on a table. He opened the package and snacked on the sweets before moving on inside the house.

The suspect is described as five feet eight, blond, between 25 and 30 years old.

River Falls woman goes after husband with Samurai sword

 

River Falls police were sent to a home on West Johnson Street early Sunday where a naked woman was chasing her husband with a katana – often called a Samurai sword. Officers found the 30-year-old woman holed up in the basement. After some persuading and with one officer aiming a stun gun at her, she finally dropped the sword.
