Police Log: Finally! Doughnuts are Part of the Police Log

There were a few reports of suspicious persons, some malfunctioning alarms and one young woman helps us all remember the folly of driving while allegedly intoxicated.

Some boys got a stern warning from police after they were caught spinning doughnuts in their car.  The incident happened late Wednesday evening on East E Street.  Suspicious persons were seen hanging around in various parts of town but they always left before Benicia Police Department personnel arrived on scene.
