Police Report: Woman Enters Station 'Inebriated'; Theft from Walgreens

A roundup of the latest from the Shorewood police reports.

When police confronted a Shorewood woman who walked into the police station at 2:57 a.m. on Sept. 28 to pick up an open records request for smelling of alcohol, she said, “I’m inebriated.”

The woman had driven to the station, police say, and refused to consent to a Breathalyzer test. She said no when a ride was offered, saying Shorewood police are pigs, according to the report.

The woman returned to her home via taxicab and wasn’t cited or arrested.
