100 Mile House RCMP responded to 86 complaints and calls for service during the past week.
T-bone incident
On Oct. 5, 100 Mile House RCMP and rescue crews responded to a two-vehicle incident on Highway 97 at the intersection of Tatton Station Road.
The driver of a Dodge Dakota attempted to cross the highway to Dawson Road, but was struck by the driver of a north-bound Volkswagen Passat. The force of the collision pushed the truck onto its side. The passenger of the pickup truck suffered non-life threatening injuries and was taken to 100 Mile District General Hospital by ambulance. The other vehicle’s occupants were not injured.
The driver of the Dodge Dakota was issued a violation ticket for failing to yield to the right of way.
Travel was reduced to single-lane alternating traffic while the collision was investigated. Both vehicles were towed from the scene.
Street fight
On Oct. 3, 100 Mile RCMP responded to a report of a fight on Fourth Street and Birch Avenue.
Information from witnesses indicated a fight began between three males.
One of the males was taken to 100 Mile District General Hospital for treatment of minor injuries.
A male suspect was identified and located a short distance away. He was held overnight in custody and released the following morning.
The investigation into this allegation is continuing. No charges have been laid at this time, and liquor
consumption was a factor.
Rifle found
A hunting rifle was turned into the 100 Mile House RCMP from a resident of the Interlakes area who
found it on a local road on Oct. 1.
If you have lost a rifle, please contact the 100 Mile House Detachment at 250-395-2456 and quote file 2014-3109.
The serial number and a detailed description will be required to claim the rifle.
