On July 22, 2025, Monterey Police Officers were dispatched to the 800 block of Cannery Row regarding a report of a male who had engaged in suspicious behavior but was no longer in the area. The male was reported to have followed
a young adult female inside of a business and pressed up against her. In two other separate incidents the male was reported holding a cell phone with his hands lowered while standing close to females wearing skirts. It appeared the male was pressing up close to the females in an effort to photograph up their skirts.

One of the victims reported the incident to a security guard who attempted to detain the male. Initially the male  stopped and provided a name, but the male then fled the area on foot and was not located. The name provided by the male was determined to be a false name.

A party at a Caltrans office in Monterey earlier this month in which a stripper purportedly entertained on-the-clock workers, who also drank alcohol before departing in official vehicles, was condemned by an agency spokesman Monday.
Employees allegedly held the party July 10 for an unidentified employee at the 2111 Garden Road office, according to KSBW which was tipped off about the party by an unnamed source. “It involved open consumption of alcohol, the presence of a hired stripper and employees participating while on the clock and being paid with taxpayer dollars,” according to the source. The event was ‘ ‘interrupted by another supervisor who arrived unexpectedly and witnesses the situation firsthand,” according to the news station.

Volunteers Restore Chase Park

City must be too busy with roundabouts or Gaza protests to preserve its natural beauty.

On July 22, with supporters in attendance, nonprofit Pacific Grove Cares unveiled the transformed Chase Park West, which for many years was overgrown with weeds and had generally been ignored. While the park is under the City of Pacific Grove’s purview, and maintenance would otherwise be paid for by taxpayers’ dollars, the group funded the redo through donations.
P.G. Cares founder Peggy Gibbs credited the donors, the most generous of whom were realtor Debby Beck and restaurateur Kevin Phillips. Carmel Cares, a group headed by Dale Byrne, that city’s mayor who was at the ribbon cutting at the park last week, also contributed to the project.

Ben Harvey Keeps On Racking Up Complaints At New Job

Charming, just charming. Sorry not sorry Ojai.

Harvey honk

Ben Harvey resigned from his Pacific Grove post in July 2023 after the city council voted 6-0 to 0K a separation agreement with him. Harvey later took on the same
role with the City of Ojai. However, in the past month or so, three former Ojai workers filed complaints against the Ventura County city.In a July 15 government claim, former
finance director Pamela Greer said that in early 2024, about a month after Harvey began working for the city, he requested to be reimbursed for unspecified expenses.
When Greer asked to see his employment agreement to confirm the expenses were authorized, she claims Harvey said, “Why can’t you just process the reimbursement?”
Greer, who is seeking at least $ I million in damages, accuses Harvey of disrespecting “basic financial procedures from the start,” and says he and others engaged in illegal activity, including paying vendors based on estimates rather than invoices, carrying over unspent funds from one fiscal year to the next, misusing grant funds, and requesting that she advise Harvey on his personal taxes.
Greer claims Harvey and other city offcials fired her in March for reporting the alleged wrongdoing. She said Harvey also informed the city council that he found $8 million missing in the city’s budget, “casting aspersions of financial fraud and lack of transparency on Greer and the previous city administration.”

Dead Seal Mutilation Reported

Flip flops, hoodie and shorts. Don’t think anyone would be in a tidepool dressed from Mens’ Warehouse. Did Rashelle call the police or just critique the man’s fashion?

Rashelle Diaz said she and a friend were enjoying the beach when they noticed a man and a younger lady bent over, sawing or hacking away at something.

Diaz described the scene, saying, “He was decapitating a seal he had already skinned, and separated the skull from the body.”

Diaz confronted the man, informing him that his actions were illegal.

“90% of the locals in Monterey are aware of that. You cannot go near a seal alive or dead. It’s the law,” she said.

The man claimed he had a permit for marine biology research, but Diaz noted he lacked proper safety equipment and identification.

“This man is in flip-flops, huge hunting filet knife. You know, he’s got a hoodie on, some camo shorts. Not professional looking at all,” Diaz said.
