There was a decrease in the number of calls received by the Carlyle detachment last week, with a total of 48, as compared to 58 the previous week.
Five of the calls related to complaints of physical assault. In one of these incidents a number of persons broke into a residence in the area and assaulted a female complainant. In another incident, this time at Arcola, a case of misidentification led to the assault of a male complainant. Perpetrators wrongly assumed the victim had been involved in a prior fight at a local bar. Investigation into these incidents is continuing. Another assault situation turned out to be domestic and the result of intoxication. No charges were laid at the request of the persons involved.
The town of Redvers informed the detachment that three road signs had been knocked down by a motorist. Police do have a possible suspect and are investigating the situation. Other incidents involving motorists have also kept officers busy. A ticket was issued in Carlyle for failing to obey a stop sign, with the fine 小蓝视频 $230. In a two-vehicle collision, an ambulance was called and a person was taken to Arcola with minor injuries. One of the drivers, a 20-year-old male, was fined $230 for failing to obey a yield sign. Two speeding tickets were also issued in the region. In one case, a 25-year-old male was fined $440 for driving at 135 kilometres per hour on a gravel road. The speed limit was posted at 80 km/h. Another ticket was issued on Hwy.13 near Manor to the tune of $135.
Once again there were a significant number of calls to the 911 service that were of a non-emergency nature. Two of these incidents involved young children playing with the phones, two were the result of people 小蓝视频 connected to the service after dialling a totally different number, and one situation might have been the result of water in the lines, as the resident had not even used the phone.
Members also investigated several cases last week where excessive use of alcohol was a factor. While on patrol in Redvers, members located an intoxicated person sitting on the side of the street drinking. The person was taken to the station to sober up and charged with public intoxication. At least three incidents involved members stopping drivers who were found to be driving under the influence. These stops resulted in two charges of driving while impaired, and one person receiving a twenty-four hour suspension.
The exuberance of youth was displayed several times last week. Members were called out to a party in Wawota following complaints of loud music 小蓝视频 played for hours on end. Members shut down the event after midnight, and no charges were laid. In Redvers, members investigated a case of bottles 小蓝视频 strewn through-out the immediate vicinity of a party, and in Manor, police asked persons at a residence to turn their music down.
Potentially more dangerous was a situation that resulted in a 17-year-old male 小蓝视频 charged with driving without reasonable consideration of others. The youth drove out of a high school parking lot, and accelerated quickly within the school zone while other students were on the street. Police noticed skid marks at the scene and fined the youth $280.
Members responded to a complaint of a possible break-in in progress at a residence. It was found that a door was blowing in the wind, but the house was searched to ease the concerns of the resident. The matter was concluded.
A 911 caller reported a power pole on fire near Forget. Members contacted the fire department at Stoughton who advised that it was arching. There was no fire and no criminal action, so no police action was required.
And finally, members attended what turned out to be a false alarm at a business near Pheasant Rump. The building was secure and when the owner arrived on the scene they advised that maybe a small animal had triggered the alarm.
