Narrative: (Officer)... will be all set, has the individual.
Narrative: (Officer).. off at (address) Back Road with male juv. (juvenile)
Narrative: (Officer) ...the juv will remain at home and not be running around.
Translation: A woman in the neighborhood reported seeing an animal that looked like a gorilla. Police and dispatchers said it turned out to be a young man in a "gilly" camouflage suit, which has strips of cloth hanging off it.
He was jumping out in front of cars with a stick.
"Gilly" suit: Leafy or shaggy camouflage suit that disguises the wearer and looks much like a hairy animal.
