Pen pals: A city resident said someone was knocking on her front door and she thought it had something to do with messages she'd been getting about "someone her daughter ... was involved with last year," Monday. The daughter said she'd sent messages "to another female's boyfriend in jail at her request" last year "and now that female believes (she) is trying to be with the male in question." The daughter said she didn't know the names of any of the people involved and the messages "were rather vague in nature," police said. She told police "She wants nothing to do with any of them."
