Local Sheriff’s Office Incident Report 002-2015
This morning Deputy James Fuller observed a suspicious
vehicle parked on an empty street aimed in the general direction
of Box Station, Inc., with two occupants in the vehicle. Deputy
Fuller approached the vehicle and requested identification from
both occupants. The occupants were identified as Richard
Parsons and Robert Jackson. Although Parson had quite an
extensive previous arrest record there were no active warrants.
Jackson claimed to be the president of some kind of activist
group. Both were told to leave the area and they departed
without incident.

City Police Department Incident Report 003-2015
Today a local bar owner, Mr. Pedro Sanchez, 123 Central Ave.,
Yourtown, ST reported a loud and boisterous patron had to be
removed by security approximately one month ago after getting
very drunk and loud. Sanchez went on to say that this was not
unusual but the thing he thought was odd about this guy was
that he started off the evening asking the waiting staff if they
knew where the Box Station, Inc. employees had their uniforms
cleaned. Sanchez thought this was really odd but got too busy
to look further into it and eventually forgot about it until

4. yesterday when a different person came into the bar asking the
same type of questions. This time it was a blonde female and
she was asking about what kind of identification cards are
needed to get into the Box Station, Inc. facility. Sanchez said
once his employees told him about this he immediately called
the police. Sanchez also reported that the female had departed
the bar just a few minutes before the police arrived. He
believed she might have been driving a blue sports car.
Interview of Mr. Larry Johnson, Network Administrator, Box
Station, Inc.
Johnson was interviewed and stated that Box Station, Inc. has
the most up to date and advanced network infrastructure
available with state of the art firewalls, encryption, and virus
protection programs. He is notified immediately of any
unauthorized attempts to gain access to their network and he is
the person that approves what employees need access to the
network. Box Station, Inc. uses a Network Encryption Access
Card (NEAC) for employees that require access to their
network. A personalized PIN is required along with the NEAC
in order to log on. If an employee’s NEAC becomes missing
they are required to report to Johnson within 24 hours so he can
disable the missing card. A few cards have gone missing
recently and there were several unsuccessful attempts to gain
access to the network.

Interview of Officer Steve Ward, State Fish and Wildlife
Enforcement Division
Officer Ward stated there had been a lot of boating activity on
the river immediately behind Box Station, Inc., recently. He
believed this was odd because of the time of year. Usually all
he sees this time of year are duck hunter in blinds but recently
he has observed several fishermen spending a lot of time

5. anchored in the river between 100 – 250 yards away from Box
Station, Inc. The oddest thing Officer Ward had observed was
that the fishermen did not have any bait on their hooks.

8. Suspicious Activity Report 201X-002
Narrative:
Last month the General Manager, Mr David Smith of Box
Station Entertainment, Inc., reported to the local Sheriff’s
Office that there had been several attempts over the last few
months of suspicious people trying to circumvent security at
their entrance gate in order to gain access to the facility that is
located in your county. He provided a general description of
the individuals in which did not provide any distinguishing
features that would help law enforcement identify who they
were. Smith did not think much of these attempts until he
began getting reports from employees of suspicious vehicles
parked along the street near the company gates at certain times
of the day. Employees had reported a large black passenger van
with tinted windows on several occasions and a bright red
moving van on three occasions. On every occasion, employees
noticed either the driver or the driver and a passenger watching
the Box Station entrance gate with binoculars.
This is raw intelligence and not a finally evaluated product.
State Office of Homeland Security has not determined if this
threat is credible. Please direct any questions to your professor
via the General Questions Discussion Board.
