Sept. 22
At about 4:35 p.m., the owner of a 2009 Hyundai Elantra came into Harrison Police HQ to report that someone damaged his vehicle while it was parked on Cleveland Ave., just off Hiram Place, sometime between 4 p.m. Sept. 20 and 9:45 a.m. Sept. 22.
Police said the vehicle was scratched on the driver’s side, from the fender to the rear door.
The owner told police that two weeks prior, when his vehicle was parked in the same location, someone had placed on his vehicle’s windshield a note written on the back of a receipt from Kearny Auto Spa saying that the way the vehicle was parked, it had taken up two parking spaces. At that time, the vehicle was untouched, the owner reported.

At about 7:30 p.m., a man entered HQ to report a theft. The man told police that when he’d entered his Washington St. apartment at 4:30 p.m., he discovered that his laptop and iPod were missing.
The HP Pavilion laptop was valued at about $700 while the iPod touch was priced at about $200, the tenant told police.
Earlier in the day, the man told police he had friends in the apartment.
Detectives are investigating.
