A woman on Maria Street told police there was a silver SUV parked in her driveway and she didn’t know who the vehicle belonged to. Her property is right next to the Boyd Buchanan school property. Boyd Buchanan's football team had a home game on this date and cars were parked on both sides of Maria Street, making it very difficult for any car to get down the street. There was not room enough for an ambulance or fire truck to get through in case of emergency. The officer had the SUV’s tag put out over the loudspeaker at the football game.
After a few minutes, a man was standing by the vehicle parked in the woman’s driveway. When asked about his vehicle, he said when he drove down the road, he didn’t want to back his car up, and was afraid he might hit another car. He left his car in the driveway and went to the football game. Police explained to the man how important it was to be respectful of other people's property and that he couldn't just park his car wherever he wanted to.
