Check out the police blotter for this sleepy little town only five miles from Palo Alto, right in the heart of the Valley: http://www.mercurynews.com/peninsula/ci_18770819 http://www.mercurynews.com/peninsula/ci_18770819 "A woman told police someone rang her doorbell but when she called out to ask who it was, no one answered. Police responded and determined the visitor had delivered a package. A resident called police to report that someone had tipped over his recycling containers. A man was reported to be lying on the ground, possibly writing. A person reported a man tried to hide his face, then turned and walked away."
