RCMP REPORT Submitted by Chase RCMP

Escalation: On September 17th at 12:33 pm, Chase RCMP were dispatched to a disturbance at a business in Scotch Creek. Police were told that the business owner had made some public Facebook comments, which had been considered offensive. The offended party, a 51 year old female, was passing by his business and noticed him outside—so she stopped to address the matter in person. The conversation did not go well, and the quarrel escalated.

The male alleged that the female threatened him with a weapon, while the female alleged that the male actually hit her with a weapon and damaged her car. The female left the property and returned with her husband who, in retaliation, chased the business owner down the road with a bat—resulting in several calls to police. Upon attendance at the scene, Police spoke with everyone involved. While no one was seriously injured in this incident, all parties wanted charges laid against one another. The matter will be referred to Crown Counsel for assessment of applicable charges.

Boating Mishap: On September 18th at 5:32 pm, Chase RCMP were advised of a grounded boat at the mouth of Little River. The complainant was concerned that the boat might have been stolen, or possibly someone was in trouble, perhaps had fallen overboard. Police attended and saw that there was a large Cabin Cruiser stuck on a sand bar. Police were unable to access the boat to check for occupants and had to request Shuswap Search and Rescue attend to assist. While Search and Rescue was getting organized, police received an update that the owners of the boat had already been picked up and planned to collect the boat the following day.

Head-on Collision: On September 19th Chase RCMP attended a two vehicle head-on collision on Hwy 97 near Duck Range Road. Witnesses explained that a southbound, black Chevy Cobalt lost traction

duckrangeplumber@gmail.com

in a curve, spinning into the oncoming lane.

A northbound white Honda Pilot could not avoid the collision and struck the Chevy on the front passenger side, shearing the front off the car. Due to the force of the collision, the motor was ejected from the Chevy, landing in a field approximately 100 feet away. The driver of the Chevy, as well as the driver and three passengers of the Honda Pilot were transported to hospital by ambulance for treatment of their injuries. They are all expected to recover.

Assault: On September 19th at 9:44 pm Chase RCMP responded to a report of an assault that occurred in the grassy area of the parking lot at the Chase Safety Mart. The witness reported that a female was punched and kicked by a second female, who then departed the scene on foot. The first female was momentarily knocked unconscious and suffered a bloody nose as a result of the assault. She was checked by paramedics and did not appear to have been seriously injured. The second female was located at a residence and arrested for assault.

She clarified that she had actually head-butted the other female, further explaining that she had done so because of some rather rude personal comments that had been made by the other female.

Noise Complaint: On September 19th at 10:19 pm, Chase RCMP were advised of a noise complaint at an address on Squilax Anglemont Road in Lee Creek. Two different neighbours reported a party with loud music. At 11:29 pm, police arrived. The residence is set well back from the road, but police could hear music from the road. The property representative met police at the road. He attempted to prevent police from entering his property by using his gate to shove them back. He declined to provide his personal information and walked away. From the road, police could hear the music continue, including people yelling and swearing. Continued on page 4...

Police waited at the road for approximately 10 minutes, but the noise continued. The property representative was accordingly issued a CSRD bylaw 5754 violation ticket for Section 3.1(a) "allow or permit noise that disturbs any person" with a price tag of $500. The music was turned down and police departed from the scene.

Suspicious Fire: On September 21st at 2:40 am, Chase RCMP happened upon a small brush fire near the intersection of Shuswap Ave and Alymer Road in Chase. The fire was between the path and the creek, near the bridge. A log was burning, with flames approximately 4 feet high. The Chase Fire Department attended and quickly extinguished the blaze. The fire was suspicious because it had rained heavily the day before and everything was still damp. It would have likely taken some effort to start the fire. Nothing of value was damaged; however, this is another in a series of suspicious fires that has kept the Chase Fire Department busy this summer Impaired Driver: On September 22nd at 8:44 pm, Chase RCMP were advised of a single vehicle roll-over in the 3000 block of Squilax Anglemont Road near Scotch Creek. Police attended and spoke with a witness who reported he was following a white Kia, when it suddenly swerved off the road, striking a utility pole and flipping on its roof. The driver, a 32 year old female from Kamloops, could not explain what happened.

Police detected an odour of alcohol on her breath. Samples of her breath were obtained which determined that she was impaired by alcohol. She was prohibited from driving for 90 days and the vehicle was impounded for 30 days.

Drive Without Due Care: On September 23rd at 11:07 am, Chase RCMP attended a single vehicle collision on the Trans Canada Highway near Squilax Anglemont Road. A white Mazda car had gone off the road, down a steep embankment.

The driver and passenger were both assessed by paramedics but did not appear to be injured.

They explained that a warning sound went off in the car, indicating low tire pressure— the driver panicked and drove off the road. A witness reported a slightly different version of events. He reported that he was following the car and saw it pull a U-turn on the highway. He stated that the occupants of the car appeared to be fighting before the vehicle went off the road. The driver was issued a violation ticket for driving without due care.

Prohibited Driver: On September 24th at 4:23 pm Chase RCMP were advised of a suspicious female at Munro’s Pharmacy in Sorrento. Police attended and located the vehicle with the female still in the driver’s seat. An investigation determined that she was prohibited from driving in British Columbia. The odd looking license plate was actually from 1966, and obviously not valid. The female was arrested for driving while prohibited. She also received a violation ticket for the invalid license plate.

The vehicle was impounded for 7 days.

Bear Spray Assault: On September 27th at 8:47 am, Chase RCMP were dispatched to Shuswap Avenue for a male who had just been bear sprayed. Police located the male, a resident of Chase, who advised what was already obvious - he was bear sprayed and beaten. He would provide no further information to police. He had a black eye that was already swollen shut and multiple bruises and contusions. He was transported to hospital for treatment of his injuries, but did not want any further assistance from police.

Vehicles Egged: On September 28th Chase RCMP were advised of mischief to vehicles parked at an apartment complex in Chase. During the night, multiple vehicles in the parking lot were egged. The owners of the vehicles have identified a suspect; however, no witnesses have come forward as of yet. The matter is thought to stem from a dispute between neighbours. There was no tangible damage to the vehicles, other than a mess to clean up.

Alexa's Team

"Alexa's Team" is a provincial recognition program that pays tribute to RCMP and municipal police officers in British Columbia who make an extraordinary contribution to reducing the number of drivers impaired by alcohol or drugs on British Columbia’s roads and highways.

"Alexa's Team" is named in honour of four-year-old Alexa Middelaer, who was killed by an impaired driver in Delta, British Columbia in 2008, while she was

standing at the roadside feeding a horse.

The Middelaer family challenged the RCMP, municipal police officers, the Ministry of Justice, and the Attorney General of British Columbia to reduce the number of deaths caused by alcohol and drug impaired driving. The result was the Immediate Roadside Prohibition Law, which went into effect in September 2010. Since the its inception, more than 72, 000 Immediate Roadside Prohibitions have been issued in British Columbia.
