From drug overdoses and domestic disputes to vehicle crashes and break-in attempts, Lorain police were kept busy this past week. Between April 11 and 17, officers responded to a wide range of incidents, including multiple assault calls, suspected drug activity, traffic accidents, mental health emergencies, and reports of suspicious behavior throughout the city. Juvenile-related disturbances, public intoxication, and welfare checks were also common, painting a picture of a community grappling with both routine calls and serious public safety concerns.
