Police are investigating a hit and run which occurred in the Days Inn parking lot Monday. Witnesses who saw it happen informed the registered owner. Police would like those witnesses to call the EPS so they can get some more details.
Members stopped a vehicle on the east end of King Street and the 19-year-old driver was issued a 60-day driver’s licence suspension due to drugs. The vehicle he was driving was seized for seven days due to him having a passenger under the age of 15 in the vehicle. The driver and one other passenger were both charged for possession of marijuana in a vehicle contrary to the Cannabis Control Act. The fine for this offense is $360.
Police arrested a 33-year-old man for breaching conditions of a release order. He was lodged in cells until sober.
