The nurse said she couldn’t smell anything in the room. The male patient was discharged and had left the property before the officer arrived. The female patient agreed to talk to the officer. She was definitely under the influence, but the staff said she was detoxing. She told the officer that the male patient gave her meth and she smoked it out of a pipe. The officer asked if she was forced to take it, and she said no, but that he strongly encouraged her to do it. The officer said he would log her complaint. She understood. He asked if she had anything else she wanted to tell him, and she said no.

March 21 — The manager of an inn in Ilwaco requested an officer because a subject was causing a disturbance. An officer arrived and contacted the subject, who had a bloody finger. He was convinced that the manager took his phone. The manager said he did not. The subject said that the manager was pushing him out the door and slammed it, and his hand was still in the door. At the same time, one of them had another phone, and it hit the glass as the door was closing, which caused it to shatter. It sounded like none of what happened was intentional. The manager wanted the subject trespassed, which the officer did, and the subject was served with a no-trespassing order. It sounded like they more or less needed to be separated today. They agreed to talk tomorrow. The subject wanted the video of the incident. The officer told him he would request it, but could not make the manager do it. The officer and subject tried to look for the phone, but it was not in the room where the subject thought it was.

She said he gave it to her to help pay bills, and said her boyfriend is going to talk to the person he got it from. The officer asked where that transaction took place, and she said somewhere on the peninsula. The officer tried calling her back on March 22 to see if she found out where. She did not answer.
