Saturday, February 11, 2012 – IML News – We received a phone call this Saturday morning from IML Police Sergeant Lavander. He informed us that after midnight on Saturday, February 11, 2012, the Iron Mountain Lake Police Department made a substantial Methamphetamine bust in the area of Brown Mountain Rd., within the City of Iron Mountain Lake.

As a follow-up, we spoke with Sergeant Lavander about the recent break-ins on the west side of IML. He reported that there have been no further incidents.

>FYI – IML BREAK-INS IN WARD 1
Sunday, January 29, 2012 - IML News - FYI - Recently there have been several break-ins in the Ward 1 area of Iron Mountain Lake.
Earlier in the month there was a break-in on St. Louis Ave. And now the most recent was last night, the the early am hours on Sunday, January 29, 2012.
During the night a detached garage, on Wayne Dr. was robbed. The home owners believe the incident occurred at about 1am, when the neighborhood dog was barking much louder than usual. When the victims arose this morning they had discovered that their garage had been broken into. Upon inspection, there were items moved and placed next to the door, such as a sawsall, power saw and other power equipment. Upon further inspection it was revealed that their generator and several cans of gas had been stolen. They believe that when they awoke from the dog barking, turned on a light and looked out the window it must have scared the thieves off. The owners believe they were also going to take the items left at the door, but were interrupted.
