Rumpled bedding has woman fretting

A woman on Kings Valley Drive summoned deputies at about 7:30 a.m. on Feb. 4 to investigate an unauthorized nap. The night before, she explained, she’d left the house empty, the garage wide open and the doors unlocked for about 7 hours while she recreated elsewhere with friends. Finally retiring to her bedroom at about 3:30 a.m., she was alarmed to discover her pillow and bedspread suspiciously arrayed on the floor as if someone had snoozed on them. Fearing an intruder, she called a friend and together they determined that they were alone in the house and nothing appeared missing or disordered. Even more reassuring, the several large dogs that inhabit the residence and which had been locked in that very bedroom throughout her absence seemed completely unruffled. On reflection, she allowed the possibility that the dogs may have pushed the bedding to the floor. Since the dogs aren’t talking, the case is closed.
