Overnight Visitor
I thought I would share this with everyone. The other day, I needed something out of my clipper, so I popped in to grab it. I had been doing some stuff in there a while back and so I knew I had so...

Well - you've listed all the reasons NOT to report it.
Here's a few leaning the other way:
1. The PD may have other similar "overnighter" complaints with different outcomes. It may help to know where they occur.
2. Who knows if the "nice" visitor would react differently had you walked in on him (or her). Do you know if he/she was armed?
Were there other instances? - Did those have different outcomes?
3. Sometimes an insignificant report can be tied to one with more serious implications (the "more important" things you believe the PD is involved with).
Recently a nice guy allowed a homeless person to stay in his RV overnight. She wouldn't leave in the morning. Turned into a standoff with the LA (CA) PD live on local news - she finally came out after *she* torched the RV (total loss).
Sometimes nice guys finish last!
And - Good news travels fast (among the homeless):
"There's an unlocked RV parked over on River Street - even has food inside! It had all kinds of neat stuff inside which I left alone!" (which he describes).
So now - the word is out!
Your *NEXT* visitor may be hocking the items the first didn't take - even if he has to break in to get them - since he knows they are/were there!
