Officers found him near the Wehner Park playground. Naturally, they also found his mother, who was circling the neighborhood trying to locate her fugitive son. Mama was not amused, and honestly the handcuffs may have been the safer ride for him.</p><p>• On Oct. 28, an officer stopped a vehicle with no license plates. The driver had no license, no insurance and no registration for the vehicle. That’s the Traffic Trifecta, folks. He was arrested.</p><p>• On Oct. 29 around 2 a.m., a driver was found sound asleep at the wheel near the Murdoch Cut-Off and Lansdowne Avenue.

The driver had a suspended license, no insurance, no registration and warrants in another jurisdiction. He was arrested. Turns out the driver was in the middle of a food delivery when he was stopped. Nobody wants a cold burger on their conscience, so another officer took the bag and completed the food delivery. No word on whether the officer got a tip, but he did get five stars for punctuality. The customer, meanwhile, got dinner and a good story. Bon appétit!</p><p>• On Oct. 29, two women, ages 18 and 20, were arrested for shoplifting at Walmart. Loss prevention watched them move from department to department, one stuffing bags while the other “discreetly” blocked the view of others. Apparently, nobody told them about Walmart’s impressive camera system, which is conveniently mounted on the ceiling. Poor planning, ladies.</p><p>• On Oct. 30, a man was arrested at Walmart for shoplifting after he picked a coat off a rack, removed the tags, put it on and then stuffed the pockets and his pants with assorted merchandise.</p><h2>Warson Woods</h2><p>• No report was submitted this week.</p><h2>Webster Groves</h2><p>• On Oct. 26 at 11:22 a.m., a fraud victim at 4 S.
