100 Mile House RCMP pull over drinking driver, boat recovered

100 Mile RCMP responded to 95 complaints and calls for service during the past week.

Drinking driver

On Sept. 20, the 100 Mile House RCMP pulled over a vehicle, which appeared to be operated in an

erratic manner.

When the vehicle stopped, a male driver was identified. He displayed symptoms of liquor consumption. An approved screening device was administered at the scene and the result was a fail. The driver requested the second test and the result was also a fail.

Having met the established criteria, the driver was issued a 90-day immediate roadside driving prohibition and his vehicle was towed and impounded for 30 days.

Boat recovered

On Sept. 17, 100 Mile House RCMP were advised of a boat which had been adrift on Sheridan Lake

and recovered by a local resident.

The boat is described as a 20-foot aluminum boat with a motor and covered by a tan-coloured tarp.

If you are aware of this boat being missing from its rightful location, please contact the 100 Mile House RCMP at 250-395-2456 and quote file number #2014-2942.
