Brecksville Police Blotter: Property Damage at a Local Business and a Fight on Brecksville Road

The following incidents were reported by the Brecksville Police Department between June 16 and June 20. The information was compiled by police reports.

Property damage:

Police arrived at a Brecksville Road business at 9:46 a.m. on June 16. The employee had found the company’s glass door shattered after 9 a.m. He found two FedEx envelopes and a piece of steel on the ground. Police talked to the FedEx driver, who was nearby. The driver said the door had been intact when he delivered the envelopes at 8 a.m.

Criminal mischief:

Police heard of a possible fight on Brecksville Road near Wallings Road and pulled over the vehicles described shortly after 9 p.m. on June 16. 

In interviews, police learned that the drivers of the three cars in question had allegedly blocked in a fourth car, while one of the individuals got out of a car and punched and kicked the one that was blocked in. 

Earlier that evening, the driver and passengers in the blocked-in car—an 18-year-old from Broadview Heights, a juvenile from Brecksville and two juveniles from Broadview Heights— allegedly had yelled and made obscene gestures at the man who later hit the car while driving by the gas station where he worked.

A 21-year-old Broadview Heights man—the one who had allegedly hit the vehicle—was charged with criminal mischief and unlawful restraint. The three North Royalton men who helped block the car in—an 18-year-old, a 19-year-old and a 21-year-old—were also charged with unlawful restraint.
