Police Report: Stolen Statues; Not the Right Music?

If you like music – beware.

Your neighbor may not like the exact style of music and call the police on you early in the afternoon for a loud noise complaint. That’s what one Waukesha resident learned Saturday.

A person called the police department about a noise complaint at 12:45 p.m. Saturday in the 400 block of West Wabash Avenue. Police made contact and observed that the music was not loud or unreasonable. The person playing the music told police the neighbor did not like the style of music – Mexican music.
