Port Chester police reported the following incidents throughout the village:

- A 72-year-old Port Chester man told police that a two-and-a-half-foot-tall "lawn jockey" was stolen from in front of his Soundview Street home on on Thursday. The statue, painted burgandy and white, had been in front of his home for many years. The man told police he'd had a recent dispute with local teens, but police were uncertain whether there was any connection to the theft.
