Break & Enters Discovered

(SAUGEEN FIRST NATION) On June 1, 2012,

in the early evening, a break and enter was discovered

in the Wahbezee Drive area of the Saugeen First Nation.

The cottage owner had not been at the seasonal

 residence since the long weekend in May.

 Many items were taken including:

•  a 32" flat screen Emerson TV

•  a 37" flat screen LG TV

• a BOSE media player

• several power tools

• a variety of wine and alcohol.

While conducting a neighbourhood canvas another break 

and enter was found a few doors away. Alcohol, a Nintendo 64,

air guns and a compound bow were taken from this residence.

A Scenes of Crime Officer (SOCO) attended and processed

 the scenes for evidence

Water Patrols Begin

(SOUTH BRUCE PENINSULA ON.) Bruce Peninsula

OPP were out on the waters of the numerous inland lakes in

the South Bruce Peninsula over the weekend. A number of 

vessels were checked and found to be compliant with

all required equipment. 

Abandoned vehicle reported stolen

(SOUTH BRUCE PENINSULA ON.) A report of a stolen vehicle

from a Waterloo Region Man turned out to be unfounded.

The vehicle in question had been left in a live lane on a

South Bruce Peninsula road for a number of hours on June 3. 

In keeping with the OPP's mandate of public safety, the vehicle

was towed from the scene. Efforts to find the owner were not

successful as only the home address in Waterloo Region was

associated to the vehicle. The man and his vehicle were

successfully reunited at a local tow company. 

Traffic Offence Results in three day Suspension

(SOUTH BRUCE PENINSULA ON.)  An officer of the Bruce

Peninsula OPP stopped a 21-year-old Georgian Bluffs man

for a traffic related offence.

While speaking with the man the officer could smell the

odour of alcohol on his breath. A road side test was given and

the result was a fail.

This means that the reading was higher than the 

pre-determined number required for a fail to register. 

The man was arrested and provided breath tests into an

Intoxilyzer 8000C. The results were in the warn range and he was

released unconditionally, his drivers license was

suspended for three days and returned to the MTO. 

The Bruce Peninsula OPP would remind anyone who sees 

an impaired driver, or boater to call 911 to report this activity. 

The OPP reminds everyone that water safety is paramount to

water fun. Make sure all your equipment is on board and

not on the dock.
