At 12:25 a.m. April 24, officers were dispatched to a Noble Road apartment unit where a woman reported that she wanted her boyfriend, the father of her 8-year-old child, to leave because he was behaving in a “crazy” manner.

The man told police that he lived in the unit and that he would not leave. He told police that four days earlier, on Easter Sunday, his girlfriend’s brother had pistol-whipped him and then showed officers a cut near his eye.

The woman told police that she had video of the incident involving herself and the man, which took place in their bedroom.

The video showed the man yelling in the woman’s face as she lie in bed. The man was yelling about the pistol whipping. The woman was mostly silent.

He asked the woman what she would do if he had a gun and blew out her brains. He then asked what she would do if he beat out her brains.

The child briefly entered the room as the man yelled.

The woman eventually asked the man why he would say things like this to her, and he replied. “I’m gangster and want to get active.”

Police handcuffed the man and charged him with domestic violence, aggravated menacing, and child endangering.

At 11 a.m. April 25, a University Heights man arrived at the CHPD station to report that a car he owns had been chased hours earlier by Willoughby Hills police into Richmond Heights, where it crashed.

The man said the car, a 2014 Hyundai Sonata, is used by his daughter, a Cleveland Heights resident. Police called the daughter, who had been sleeping and unaware of the car’s theft.

She said she still had the keys and there was no glass on the ground where the car had been parked.

The report did not state if suspects were located in Richmond Heights.

At 9:35 a.m. April 26, police were called to a home where a woman said she had been assaulted by her juvenile daughter.

The woman said her daughter was upset because the girl’s 13-year-old sister would not do her hair.

The angry girl went to her mother’s room, but her mother, because of her anger, told her to leave.

The girl would not leave and pushed against the bedroom door when her mother tried to close it.

The mother then left the room, hoping the girl would not follow. She did follow and, after being told to go outside to cool down, the girl responded by punching her mother four times in the mouth.

The woman called 911. She had swollen and cut lips.

Police arrested the girl for domestic violence and assault. The juvenile justice center would not accept the girl, but gave police permission to take her to stay at her grandmother’s Cleveland house.

At 3:10 a.m. April 26, an officer heard two gunshots coming from Preyer Avenue, near Superior Road. As the officer neared Peyer, he saw a gray pickup truck leave the street and head onto Superior.

A traffic stop was conducted on the truck.

Meanwhile, another officer found on Preyer a white van parked in the street with damage to its side. Fresh tire marks made it appear as if a vehicle had just pulled out of the driveway near where the truck was parked.

Two shell casings were found in the street.

There were two men in the gray truck. The passenger was wanted on a traffic warrant. He called the driver his brother and said they had been visiting his “sister” on the street over “there (Preyer).”

The passenger stated that he only knew his sister by her first name, then later admitted they were not blood related.

At the home where the van was parked, a woman answered for police. Other women were also in the home and were said to be having a girls night. The woman who answered said she heard shots, but did not want to fill out a statement.

A loaded gun was found in the gray truck and the passenger, while later undergoing interrogation, admitted to owning and twice firing the gun. He said he did not fie the gun at anyone or anything.

Earlier, he had told police he had merely set off two firecrackers.

The truck’s driver refused to answer questions.

The gray truck had caused the damage to the van.

The passenger was charged with improper handling of a firearm in a motor vehicle, discharging a firearm and hit-skip.

The report did not state why the gun was shot or exactly what the men were doing at the woman’s home.

At 3:45 a.m. April 26, a man reported that his Toyota Camry had been stolen from his apartment parking lot at 35 Severance Circle.

The man told police he arrived home from work at 4 p.m. April 25. At 2 a.m. April 26 he went to where his car had been parked and found it missing. There was glass on the ground where the car had been parked.

At 10:50 p.m. April 26, an officer spotted the car being driven at Nelaview and Noble roads. Police followed the car and saw it enter a parking lot at 832 Greyton Road.

When the car left the lot, its two male passengers bailed out and ran. The car was left in the drive position and continued onto a sidewalk before police could bring it to a stop.

The suspects were not apprehended. The car had a damaged passenger side window and peeled steering column. Evidence was collected from inside the car.

At 5:45 p.m. April 27, police were dispatched to an apartment building where two women, ages 22 and 29, had been engaged in an altercation.

The older woman told police she believed that the other woman told her 2-year-old daughter to throw garbage at her car, parked in the apartment lot.

The women have had altercations since the older woman moved next door.

The older woman said the other woman went into her apartment after the incident at her car and got a gun, though she never saw a weapon. The younger woman told the other woman she was going to make her gun “sing.”

Feeling threatened, the older woman called police.

At 5:30 p.m. the following day, police were called back to the lot as the younger woman approached the older woman’s car and asked her if she wanted to fight. She criticized the older woman’s appearance and called her a “dumb hoe.”

The older woman captured the incident on video.

At 10:30 p.m. police were again called to the apartment as the two women were again engaged in an altercation. On this visit police cited the younger woman for disorderly conduct. The older woman requested a protection order.
