Editor’s Note: The Bedford Tribune will be using a different format to post the Police Reports which could be a little less user friendly, but more time efficient to construct. Police reports are published a week at a time, and usually come in two separate dispatch logs, called CADLOGS. Two CADLOGS are posted in this week’s reports. Please contact bedfordtribune@gmail.com for any questions or comments.
