Sharyn’s Sirens: Daily police and fire roundup

POLICE FOLLOW SNOW TRACKS TO SUSPECTS

• Footsteps in the snow led to a pair of suspects in Centralia after police were called about an apparent attempted burglary on the 300 block of West Second Street last night. Police  called about 11 p.m. were told a resident heard his garage door open and when he looked outside, he saw two male figures running away, according to the Centralia Police Department. Officers followed the tracks to a home where they arrested Max Cross, 22, and a 17-year-old boy for second-degree burglary, according to police.

WALLET LIFTED BY STRANGERS WHO HELPED WOMAN

• A wallet with more than $1,700 was missing from a vehicle after two passersby assisted a woman getting her vehicle unstuck from the snow along Interstate 5 in Chehalis, according to the Lewis County Sheriff’s Office. It happened about 8:30 p.m. on Saturday when the woman spun out near milepost 71 and a pair of men – a taller skinny one and a shorter chubby one – driving a smaller gray Datsun or Toyota pickup truck stopped to help, Chief Civil Deputy Stacy Brown said. One of them had gotten into the front seat as they pulled the car out of the snow, Brown said. The owner of the wallet, a 74-year-old Ethel man who had been in the hospital, reported the incident yesterday, Brown said.

THEFT

• Police were called just after noontime yesterday about tools stolen from a garage on the 800 block of Field Street in Centralia.
