The following was compiled from Renton Police Department case reports.

An Auburn man became violent, yelling obscenities and struggling with officers, May 20 in the 200 block of Logan Avenue South after he tried to punch another man over a pair of shoes.

The victim, a Kent man, deflected the punches or stepped back. He didn’t punch back.

The suspect refused to sit down until an officer drew his Taser. He became irate when arrested for fourth-degree assault, telling officers “just kill me.”

He was picked up and placed in an officer’s patrol car, where he hit his head against a partition so hard that he knocked a rifle out of its track.

He was taken to the SCORE regional jail, where he continued his assaultive behavior and had to be physically removed from the patrol car.

BIKE STOLEN OFF BUS: A 32-year-old Renton man just back on May 16 to the Renton Transit Center from Redmond, where he got his $400 BMX fixed, offered to let another man ride his bike.

They got on the bus together and the man offered him some alcohol. At Southeast 192nd Street and 108th Avenue Southeast, they got off the bus, where the man pushed him down.

The now-suspect grabbed the bike from the rack and rode away south on 108th Avenue Southeast.

ROBBED OF PRESCRIPTIONS: A 63-year-old Renton man lying on a hospital bed in his living room was robbed May 16 of his prescription drugs by a man holding a knife.

Officers have had previous contact with the man, who has a history of drug abuse, including methadone and heroin.

The suspect in his mid 20s demanded the victim’s cash and methadone. He didn’t have any methadone but there was $4,000 in a wallet attached to a string around his neck.

The victim appeared heavily under the influence of his methadone. The only evidence a crime occurred was damage to a broken door frame and molding, although officers were unsure when that occurred.

BACK FOR THE STEREO: Someone has stolen the speakers from a Renton man’s SUV several times in recent months, but this time the stereo was taken, too.

His SUV was broken into sometime overnight on May 18 in the 4100 block of Northeast 22nd Place. Loss was estimated at about $1,000.

WATCH YOUR WALLET: Someone stole a Renton woman’s wallet May 24 that she left unattended for about give minutes while she tried on shoes at the Goodwill store on Sunset Boulevard.

She called her bank immediately and learned her debit card had already been used at the Shell gas station nearby.

Officers planned to review security video at the Goodwill and the gas station.

BUT IT’S ON VIDEO: It took a lot of convincing, but a 41-year-old Kent woman finally told officers the vodka she stole from a Renton drugstore on Carr Road May 19 was in the center console of her pickup truck.

She was stopped on East Valley Road because of a vehicle description given by a store employee. She repeatedly said she didn’t steal anything, but the theft was caught on video.

A records check showed she was wanted on a misdemeanor warrant in Centralia, so a Renton officer drove to Lacey to turn her over to a Centralia officer.

She was trespassed from the Renton store, which declined to pursue charges.
