ESTEVAN - Members of the Estevan Police Service received a report of an assault that took place on Feb. 3. One of the accused individuals was arrested, charged and released with conditions. The matter is still under investigation as there were other individuals involved.

A traffic stop resulted in a male being charged with impaired driving. Two samples of breath were obtained, with reading results more than double the legal limit. The accused’s vehicle was impounded and his licence was suspended. The accused was released with a court date later in the year.

Police also received a report of an individual threatening staff at a local licensed premise. Members attended but the subject had left prior to officers arriving.

Officers were out on Friday night and into Saturday, rewarding motorists who found an alternate way home rather than driving while impaired.
