Sharyn’s Sirens: Daily police and fire roundup

A TWO-FOR

• A 36-year-old Portland man was arrested about 4 p.m. yesterday in Vader driving a stolen vehicle with a stolen pistol under the driver’s seat after a deputy spotted him driving away a place belonging to someone who had asked the sheriff’s office to watch their property near the intersection of state Route 506 and E Street. The deputy thought it was suspicious and made a traffic stop, according to the Lewis County Sheriff’s Office. The driver, Dominick J. Perry, told the deputy they were lost, according to the sheriff’s office. Cmdr. Steve Aust said a registration check of the 1986 Mazda RX7 showed it was taken from Portland on Sunday, and the Glock 9 mm handgun stolen from someone else two weeks ago. The gun had a 30-round, high capacity loaded magazine and Perry, being a convicted felon, wasn’t supposed to have a gun anyhow, according to the sheriff’s office. A 34-year-old woman who was in the passenger seat was detained, but was released as she was unaware of the stolen items, according to Aust. Perry was booked into the Lewis County Jail for numerous offenses.

WAL-MART PARKING LOT NAP

• Police called just before 9 a.m. yesterday to a report of a person seemingly passed out behind the wheel of a pickup truck in the Wal-Mart parking lot, with a beer in his hand, ended up arresting the 58-year-old Chehalis man. David W. Wesley was cited for being in physical control of a vehicle while intoxicated and booked into the Lewis County Jail, according to the Chehalis Police Department. The case is also being referred to prosecutors for other possible charges as the officer located three handguns – two of them loaded – inside the truck, Sgt. Gary Wilson said. Wesley had an expired concealed pistol license, Wilson said, but the guns were not on his person.
