Williams Lake RCMP responded to calls for service on the weekend that turned out to be much less serious than first reported to police.
On Saturday evening at approximately 7 p.m., police received a report of a stabbing in the 1200 block of Clark St.
Upon further investigation police learned the matter was merely a verbal altercation, however, one male was arrested at the scene on an outstanding warrant.
Later Saturday evening, at approximately 10:36 p.m., a caller reported seeing a 15-or-16-year-old male in the parking lot of the 7/11 Convenience Store with a knife taped to the end of a long stick.
Staff. Sgt. Del Byron said the person in question never went into the store, did not threaten anyone and was not located by police.
On Sunday at 11:36 p.m. police received a report of a drive-by shooting in the 300 block of Third Avenue North.
Byron said several officers were deployed to the residence to find that a young woman was assaulted, however, called it in as a shooting.
Police are continuing to investigate the incident.
