The Chillicothe Police Department, located at 613 Walnut St., Chillicothe, MO, reported a busy day on Wednesday, November 22, handling various incidents across the city.

A curious case unfolded at 9:58 a.m. when a citizen reported his vehicle stolen and then returned, choosing not to press charges. Shortly after, at 10:44 a.m., officers were dispatched to the 600 block of East Business 36 Highway for a commercial burglary alarm, which turned out to be a false alarm.

At 12:57 p.m., officers responded to a complaint about barking dogs on the 200 block of Woodrow Avenue, which ceased upon arrival. Animal Control was then called to the 1000 block of 3rd Street at 1:53 p.m. to address a vicious dog report.
Later in the afternoon, at 3:48 p.m., a report of a suspicious vehicle on the 1000 block of Graves Street was received, but the vehicle had departed before officers arrived. At 4:52 p.m., a citizen contacted the department regarding an earlier reported assault.
