Criminal Trespass 2
An officer responded to a call at an apartment complex in Northwest Corvallis for a report of harassment. The officer contacted a resident, who said his neighbor has been leaving notes on his door for two years.
The resident said that he had been patient because he knows his neighbor has mental health issues, but he had told her multiple times not to come to his apartment. He stated that he called his landlord, who advised him to have her officially trespassed from the property.
The resident showed the officer a container of croissants his neighbor left with an envelope that said “thank you”. Inside the envelope was a letter documenting a number of grievances the neighbor had with the resident, and stated that she was going to call the police on him.
The officer contacted the neighbor and said that the resident did not want her to come to his apartment, and then told her that if she had an issue with her neighbor, she needs to contact their landlord. The officer then issued a trespass notice and explained it to her.
