The RP at Healdsburg Gas Mart on Healdsburg Avenue indicated that a woman went into the store and asked the RP to have sex with her in the bathroom. She was with a man in a vehicle. Officers responded and arrested a 28-YO woman for being under the influence of a controlled substance, public intoxication and violating probation. She was transported to county jail.

At 12:25pm, petty theft occurred at Big John’s Market on Healdsburg Avenue. A man stole a sandwich worth $10.74. An officer responded, spoke to the RP and subsequently contacted the suspect at his residence. The theft may have been accidental, and the suspect went back to the store to settle his tab.
