Behind the Tape…
By Sgt. Richard Dascall
Hey everyone, I hope all of you had a great Christmas and New Year’s. We’re
going to start the new year off right with a good old police story. This is one of my
favorites, but I have to go back a few years to tell it.
As I’m sure most of you are aware, terrible things your eyes cannot unsee
happen on the beach at night. Coincidentally, when it’s slow and the weather
permits, some of us officers enjoy a beach ride late in the night. Well around 2011,
an officer that was employed here at the time and I went on these beach rides
three nights in a row and each night what we saw became progressively worse.
The first night, just as we got to 2nd St., we ran across a group of people who
had several candles lit and placed around this stick structure. As we got a bit closer
we realized they had drawn a pentagram in the sand. We talked to them for a
minute and realized this was some sort of satanic ritual. All in all, they were very
nice people, so we just asked them to put their candles out to avoid any fires and
we went on our way.
The next night got even better. Just as we reached 15th St., we bumped into a
couple of people enjoying the beach in an adult manner. As we were talking to them
and explaining that a hotel would be better for that sort of thing, we heard noises
closer to the pier. We shone our flashlights in that direction and saw no less than
100 people scattered no more than 10 ft. from each other, all having sex on the
beach. At that point we just turned the blue lights on our ATV and that let everyone
know it was time to go. Unfortunately that’s one of those things you can’t unsee,
because, for the most part, it wasn’t a pretty sight.
The next night, we actually made it all the way to the pier with no unfortunate
occurrences. We got onto the pier and looked around, where we found someone
sleeping behind the ice machine near the railing. We woke the guy to find out why
he was sleeping there. Turned out he was local, had drank too much, and didn’t
have a way home. We started to send him on his way, and as he was putting his
shoes on, I saw him take something out of his shoe and put it in his mouth. Having
seen this sort of thing before, I was pretty sure this guy was trying to swallow
crack. So we grabbed him and started trying to get him to spit out the suspected
drugs. After a couple seconds of this he was able to tell us that he was just putting
in his teeth.
After this, we both took the series of events as a sign that there’s nothing good
on the beach after dark, and decided not to go out there for a while. So in summary,
be careful on the beach at night. Lots of strange things happen out there.
