Const. Avery Â鶹ÊÓƵ has joined the Carlyle RCMP.

CARLYLE - Our newest member, Const. Avery Â鶹ÊÓƵ, arrived in Carlyle this week straight from depot in Regina. Everyone at the detachment is very excited to see Cst. Â鶹ÊÓƵ arrive in Carlyle right before the busy summer months. 

Meanwhile, thefts are on the rise again in rural Saskatchewan. 

Just a reminder to please lock up any items that you believe could be a target of theft.  If you live in a small town and see people you don’t know please take note as they could be there for the wrong reasons, like scoping out things to steal. 

Lots of items including boats, quads, trailers and small equipment have been stolen recently in the area. Please keep an eye out for suspicious people in the area, especially late at night or early in the morning.  Lets all try our best to watch out for one another.

It was a busy week in traffic enforcement this week and both Carlyle RCMP and Traffic Services were busy enforcing traffic laws. Twenty-two tickets for speeding alone were handed out this week. The highest speeding fine of the week went to female driving a Chevrolet Cruise who was clocked at 129 kilometres per hour in a 90 km/h speed zone. This carried a fine of $316.

The highest fines were for using an electric hand-held device while driving and driving an unregistered vehicle, each of which carried fines of $580 respectively.

On June 6, RCMP received an intrusion alarm at the White Bear Post Secondary Education building.  RCMP attended and luckily it turned out to be a false alarm with nothing criminal taking place.

That same day, RCMP received a call advising that there was a piece of rebar sticking up out of the road on the Moose Creek bridge on Highway 13 between Kisbey and Stoughton. The RCMP contacted the Ministry of Highways and Infrastructure, who advised they would be removing the rebar to ensure that no accident occurred.

On June 7, RCMP responded to a collision with a deer on Highway 9 near Kenosee Lake.  A female driving a Ford Escape collided with the deer and managed to pull her vehicle off to the side of the road. Nobody was injured in the collision. The vehicle had to be towed away from the scene.

Later that day, the RCMP received a call requesting officers go to check on a friend who needed the police. RCMP attended a residence in the area and located a male who had locked one of his hands in handcuffs while he was playing with them and could not get them undone. RCMP unlocked the handcuffs and determined that nothing criminal had occurred and no one had been hurt except the person`s pride.

Also on June 7, RCMP conducted a vehicle stop on blue Dodge Ram in Carlyle that was taking part in a high school graduation scavenger hunt.  When officers approached the vehicle, they smelled a strong odour of alcohol. The 17-year-old driver said that he had not had anything to drink and although there were four other passengers in the vehicle, said there was no alcohol in the vehicle. The driver provided a sample of his breath which confirmed that he had not been drinking and again the driver said there was no alcohol in the vehicle.  When RCMP approached the vehicle again, officers observed a case of beer, a bag full of beer and alcohol coolers. The driver received a $360 fine for being a minor possessing alcohol. If a ticket from the police was on the scavenger hunt list, they would have won for sure.

On June 8, RCMP received a complaint of an impaired male driving a blue Chevrolet truck in Arcola. RCMP located the male and although did not find him driving were able to confirm that he had been driving recently.  RCMP arrested the male for impaired driving. Unfortunately, RCMP were unable to transport the male to provide samples of his breath in order to charge him criminally for impaired driving due to unforeseen reasons. The male did receive a three-day driving prohibition and a $360 ticket for driving with open alcohol in a vehicle. The driver should go buy a lottery ticket because this was definitely his lucky day.

That same day, the RCMP received a complaint of an impaired driver driving a black Ford truck near White Bear First Nation. RCMP located and stopped a truck that matched the description and was driving very erratically, swerving back and forth.  RCMP arrested the driver for impaired operation and refusing to provide a sample of his breath (this carries the same penalty as providing an impaired sample). The driver was already prohibited from driving and was charged for driving while prohibited as well as impaired driving.

On June 9, Â鶹ÊÓƵ laid her first official charge as an RCMP officer when she observed a male smoking marijuana in a parked vehicle at Kenosee Lake.  This carried a $360 fine.

Also on June 9, RCMP received a call of a heavily intoxicated male walking down the road at Kenosee Lake and vandalizing signs by stabbing them with a screwdriver. The RCMP located and arrested the intoxicated male for being drunk in public as well as mischief. The male had a bloody nose from a previous altercation and immediately passed out in the police car. The male was taken to RCMP cells but due to his level of intoxication was deemed unfit for cells. The male was then transported to hospital where he spent the night until he was sober.

Also on June 9, the RCMP received a call of an intoxicated male walking on Highway 9 near the Bear Claw Casino. RCMP located and arrested the 14-year-old male for being intoxicated in public. The male received a free VIP upgrade at the RCMP Bed and Breakfast, although he only stayed for five hours until he was picked up by a family member.

On June 11, RCMP received a call advising that eight kids were walking on Highway 9 near the Bear Claw Casino and was scared they might be hit by a vehicle. Members attended and located a few teenagers walking on the road. They were soon picked up by a friend. Please be cautious and be aware of the 80 km/h zone on Highway 9 and always be aware of pedestrians.

Police joke:

Did you hear about all the toilets being stolen inside the Carlyle RCMP detachment?

The police have nothing to go on.
