Watkinsville Police Investigate Attempted Break-in

A Harden Hill Road resident returned home from work last Wednesday, May 1, to find that someone had broken a window on the garage door.

According to Watkinsville Police Chief Lee O'Dillon, the intruder may have attempted to reach inside and unlock the door but it was secured with a double cylinder dead bolt lock.

The burglar didn't get inside and nothing outside seemed to be missing, he said.

• Police were called to a domestic situation at a Layle Lane residence on April 30. Two people had been involved in a heated argument that became a physical altercation. Patrick Glenn Anglin, 53, was arrested and charged with battery family violence. An arrest isn't a conviction.

• On May 2 at 6 p.m., a 2009 Honda Pilot made a left turn into the path of a southbound 1991 Toyota Land Cruiser on Main Street at Experiment Station Road. A child inside the Honda suffered a minor air bag injury. Both vehicles sustained significant damage. A 40-year-old Watkinsville resident was charged with failure to yield to the right of way while turning left.

Watkinsville police responded to a total of 31 calls within city limits between April 29 - May 5, 2013.
