I swear, that town next to us gets more dangerous by the day. First it's drivers speeding through the stoplight in the center of town, and now, at least according to the police blotter, it's the turtles. To wit:
Tuesday, April 22, 4:35 pm
A caller reported a woman was helping a turtle cross the road near Minister's Pond. The caller was concerned for the woman's safety. [Hey! What about the turtle?] An officer checked the area but the woman [and presumably the turtle] was gone.
Wednesday, April 23, 6:39 pm
A person came into the station to report a turtle was crossing Great Road at Minister's Pond and was causing traffic problems. An officer reponded to the scene but the turtle was gone upon arrival.
Thursday, April 24, 3:53 pm
A caller reported a turtle was crossing Great Road by Minister's Pond and was causing traffic problems. The turtle was gone upon officer's arrival. [Now I'm beginning to think there's a turtle conspiracy to mess with the minds of the police.]
I think we should be very afraid of these turtles. Why, if the police in the next town over don't do something to curtail them, our town is next. I am deeply concerned. I do hope that the next-town police are vigilant against this threat and that they somehow manage to protect us all.

You have turtle issues, we have swan issues. That pesky animal kingdom, always demanding so much attention!
