POLICE: MAN EXPOSES HIMSELF TO UNDERCOVER OFFICER IN CENTRALIA PARK

• Centralia police went undercover after getting reports the past few days of a man exposing  and “maybe doing indecent things to himself” at Rotary Riverside Park in Centralia.

SMASH AND GRAB

• An alarm may have scared a potential burglar way from an Onalaska area home yesterday when someone threw a retaining wall block through the window of a back door, but a similar break-in southeast of Chehalis ended with the theft of items such as jewelry and an X-box, according to the Lewis County Sheriff’s Office. A deputy called just after noon to the 100 block of Leah Lane just off state Route 508 learned a white passenger car was seen driving slowly past that residence around the time of the alarm, Cmdr. Steve Aust said. Just after 4:30 p.m. a deputy called to the 100 block of Hewitt Road where a burglary was carried out learned a landscaping block had been used to smash a back window, according to Aust.
