Anna Maria

Aug. 12, 300 block of Palm Avenue, disturbance. A reporting party and others got into a verbal argument about a monetary loan.

Bradenton Beach

Aug. 3, 2400 block of Avenue A, theft. Fishing poles left lying on a dock were reportedly stolen.

Aug. 5, 100 block of Fifth Street North, traffic arrest. A driver was issued a summons to appear after a routine traffic stop showed his vehicle's tag was not registered.

Aug. 6, 2500 block of Avenue C, drug arrest. John Delaurier, 32, of Bradenton Beach, was arrested for possession of marijuana and "crack" cocaine. According to the report, Delaurier was stopped after he rolled his vehicle through a stop sign. The officer reported finding the marijuana in plain view and the cocaine was found while inventorying the contents of the car after Delaurier's arrest.

Aug. 9, 1400 Gulf Drive South, Coquina Beach, burglary. Two women reported several credit and bank cards, checks and identification stolen from a purse left inside their parked vehicle.

Aug. 11, 3900 E. Bay Drive, Publix, suspicious incident. A man reported what he believed to be an incident of identity theft when he was contacted by a Publix manager regarding worthless checks. The man reported to police that someone attempted to cash three checks using his name, although he was in New York at the time. During the investigation, the officer discovered that another man, also living in Holmes Beach, has the same first and last name - and only the men's middle initials set them apart. According to the report, the Publix account manager attempting to reach the man presenting worthless checks got the wrong listing, which then caused the reporting person to believe he was a victim of identity theft.
