11:50 a.m. - Officer Lindelof spoke with a woman who stated that she had an unpleasant encounter with an employee at the bank where she conducts her business. She stated that the employee was rude to her and would not continue to assist her with her banking transactions so she asked her to reverse the ones that had already been completed. She was concerned that she wouldn’t have documentation that they had been reversed so she took out her phone to record the interaction and the bank employee asked her to stop recording her. She ignored the bank employee and continued to record her at which point the bank employee took her phone. She stated she had to return to the bank and was concerned she would have to deal with the same employee in the future. Lindelof advised her to contact the individual’s regional manager to speak about the issue. A short time later the bank employee called with concerns about the customer returning to the bank and indicated she did not feel comfortable with her returning to her branch to conduct her business and asked that we assist them by issuing a verbal no trespass order to her. Lindelof contacted the reporting party and advised her that she was no longer welcome at that particular bank branch. She stated she would not return to that branch but was dissatisfied because she felt that the bank employee was the one who had been rude throughout their interaction.
