The Carlyle Detachment of the RCMP responded to a total of 55 calls during the week of May 25 to May 31.

A report of a single vehicle MVC (Motor Vehicle Collision) began the calls for the 25th.

Members attended and found a vehicle on its roof in a ditch north of the town of Kisbey.

The driver, who was injured in the collision, was transported to hospital for care.

Charges are pending in the matter, as the vehicle was unregistered.

A report of a yellow Dodge truck weaving eastbound down Highway 13 was received.

Members were unable to patrol immediately, due to involvement with a DUI stop, and though patrols were done later, the vehicle was not located.

A 24-year-old male is facing alcohol-related driving charges following a report of an erratic driver leading police to his vehicle.

The complainant reported that a vehicle was seen weaving excessively, and that two children returning from school had to dive into a roadside ditch to avoid being hit.

Members patrolled and located the subject vehicle, and the driver, who failed roadside screening, was taken into cells overnight.

An alarm in the area drew members towards a residence.

En route, the alarm company contacted the detachment to cancel the call, as the alarm had been set off by a labourer working at the home.

The alarm is therefore listed as false.

Another false alarm was received from a business in Carlyle, which was also cancelled quickly by the alarm company.

The detachment provided assistance to the Probation Office by having a PO client report to the detachment to fulfill conditions.

A 27-year-old male was issued a fine for $200 for public intoxication following a report of an MVC.

The report detailed an adult male sprawled on the ground beside an ATV, apparently the victim of an accident.

The subject was taken to cells overnight and issued the fine the following morning.

A call from OnStar started the day for members on the 27th.

OnStar contacted the detachment on behalf of a client who had had their vehicle stolen from the town of Arcola.

The vehicle had been left outside a business establishment unlocked and with the keys in the vehicle.

OnStar informed members that it appeared the vehicle was located in Moose Mountain Provincial Park, and gave members directions to its location.

The caller asked the individual if they knew anyone with the surname 'Sammy,' as they had an individual by that name at their hospital in Calgary who had overdosed.

The event is now under investigation, as the origin of the call proved not to be a hospital.
