All She Wanted Was the Groom

A woman was dressed for a big day, but there was one big problem.

We've all been there before. Wanted something and just couldn't find it. 

Such was the case of a Lake Forest woman on Sunday, apparently. 


According to the blotter of the Orange County Sheriff's Department, it received a call from an informant to report some suspicious behavior by a local woman. 

The informant indicated the female, in her 30s and wearing a floral dress with a purple sweater, was walking around the neighborhood talking about a missing male. Unfortunately, according to the woman, he was the man she was supposed marry that day. 

Officers arrived and returned the woman to her home. Sadly, still single.

The call was made Sunday, 5:36 p.m., from Rue Monet.

This report was culled from the Orange County Sheriff's website. Not all facts in each report are made public; the outcome of the report and its actual facts may differ from the original blotter item. There should be no assumption of guilt based on this limited information.
