TROTWOOD (Oct. 3): Doing her own police work, a woman pointed out her back door had been kicked in and a computer and camera were missing from her residence on North Union Road.

She also showed police muddy footprints through her home that eventually led to a nearby home.

She fingered the person that lived there as the culprit, and later said family members confronted the neighbor because he was wearing a pair of muddy shoes. Marc Katz
