Crime illustrated
A Hermosa woman filed a report with police stating that she had been receiving "hang-up phone calls" from August to December, and it was "necessary to conduct a phone trace."
She illustrated the report with a frowning face, using a hand-drawn curving line for the unhappy mouth and a pair of dots for eyes.
