Interfering with property

Four young men reportedly stuck forks in the lawn and threw toilet paper and eggs at a house in the 28000 block of 122nd Place Southeast. The incident took place at about 1:30 a.m. July 22.

A young woman, who had broken off a friendship with one of the men, lived at the house and called police when she saw the objects thrown at the home, according to the police report.

Police arrested one man for investigation of interfering with the property of another. The owner of the home did not want to press charges against the other three men because they reportedly just went along with the idea of the first man to vandalize the home.

The arrested man had purchased the eggs and toilet paper and invited his friends to come along.

Officers said toilet paper covered the front of the house and both vehicles in the driveway. Yellow caution tape was stretched around both vehicles. Broken egg shells were scattered on the lawn, driveway and patio. Dozens of plastic forks were stuck in the lawn.

The arrested man told police he had done a horrible prank and felt sorry for what he had done.

The three men who were not arrested helped clean up the home.

Assault

A 30-year-old Kent woman reportedly punched her nanny after the nanny criticized the woman’s dating habits in an incident July 20 at a restaurant parking lot in the 25200 block of 104th Avenue Southeast.

Kent Police arrested the woman for investigation of fourth-degree assault after the woman allegedly punched the nanny, whom she had hired to watch her children. The nanny later called police to report the attack.

The woman took the nanny out to dinner to thank her for watching her children, according to the police report. The nanny told police she watches the children as a favor and does not receive any pay. At the restaurant, the nanny told the woman she did not like her dating habits because it creates an unhealthy environment for the children. The woman became upset at the nanny and the two started to argue at the restaurant parking lot.
