WEYBURN – The Weyburn Police Service experienced a busier week in call volume, responding to 97 calls for service during the period of March 21 through March 27, resulting in a total of 10 charges. Of the charges, three were laid under the Criminal Code of Canada, six under the Traffic Safety Act, and one under the Alcohol & Gaming Regulation Act.

During the week, officers dealt with three different individuals on separate matters that were found to have outstanding warrants for their arrest. The warrants were executed on the individuals and all were arrested and released with upcoming court dates in the jurisdiction of the agency holding the applicable warrant.

On Wednesday afternoon, officers attended a local residence at the request of the occupant to assist removing unwanted guests. Officers were able to speak to all involved parties and mediate the matter without further incident.

In the very early hours of Saturday morning, a traffic stop conducted on a vehicle being driven erratically resulted in an adult male being charged for impaired driving. The driver was dealt with accordingly and released with an upcoming court date.

On Sunday morning, an adult female reported being assaulted when she attempted to awaken her boyfriend after an evening of drinking. Officers attended and an adult male was taken into custody. The adult male faces a charge of assault as well as an additional charge of choking. EMS personnel attended to the female who was treated on scene and did not require further medical attention.

Officers responded to several family/domestic related matters during the week. No charges resulted in these situations as officers were able to mediate the dispute with no physical violence occurring.

Officers also attended several noise complaints involving barking dogs and loud parties. The individuals responsible for the noise were spoken to and warned of possible charges under the city bylaw if the noise continued.
