For the last 24 hours:
Vehicle Stolen & Recovered. Suspects in Custody:
At about 7:30 AM Sunday morning, we received a report of a vehicle being stolen from the 3500 block Willowdale Crescent within the previous 2 hours. The owner identified a family member as a possible suspect, as the suspect had used subterfuge to obtain the keys from the owner’s child. It was also revealed that the 36 year-old male suspect had concealed property, believed to be stolen from break and enters, in a shed on the caller’s property. Investigation led the members to the 300 block 4th Street in the early afternoon, where the stolen vehicle was recovered and two suspects were arrested, while engaged in breaking into mail boxes in the complex. As a result, the male accused, and a 37 year-old female co-accused, are facing numerous charges including, theft of motor vehicle, possession of property obtained by crime, theft of mail, possession of a controlled substance for the purpose of trafficking, and possessing proceeds of crime. The two accused will appear for court this afternoon. The investigation continues.
Assault, Domestic Related:
Just before 5:00 PM Sunday afternoon, a female attended to BPS to report having just been assaulted by her male partner. The victim disclosed to the investigating member that the 35 year-old male suspect had grabbed her by the upper body, and threw her down. He also intimated that he would take their infant child to another province. During the interview, the victim also disclosed a number of other instances where she had been assaulted. The suspect was later arrested at their residence. He was subsequently released on appropriate police imposed conditions and is scheduled to appear in court on January 28th facing a number of counts of domestic related assault.
Arrest Warrant:
Just after 11:00 PM Sunday night, a 28 year-old female was located at a disturbance call in the 400 block 2nd Street. A query showed there was a warrant for her arrest for a number of offences including fraud, theft, failing to attend court, and weapons related offences. The accused was arrested on the strength of the warrant, and was found to be in possession of a small knife, breaching a condition of the release order she is currently bound by. The accused was later released from custody and is scheduled to appear in court on March 25 to answer to the charges.
