Salamanca Fence Damage Complaint Points Investigators to Neighbor's Ring Camera
At 1:23 PM, Salamanca police sent an officer to 380 Central Avenue to investigate a possible criminal mischief complaint from Rhonda Carlson, who told dispatch “someone damaged her fence”.
Before clearing the call, dispatch flagged that the house across the road at 383 Central Avenue has “a ring camera that points in that general direction of the fence”, and directed the officer to check department records for anyone named Shinners at that address to attach to the report. No one answered at 383 for a follow-up, so the case was left pending, with dispatch later noting the damage occurred sometime between 11:30 AM and 1:15 PM.
