A local student was receiving threatening messages from other local youth. Police spoke to all parties involved and were able to resolve the issue informally.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cPolice want to remind the public that harassment and or threats through social media carry the same criminal consequences as similar behaviour&nbsp;in person,\u201d said S\/Sgt. Cory Bushell. \u201cParents are reminded to monitor their children&#8217;s activity online and speak to them about proper on-line etiquette.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Police responded to a report of firearms being discharged and disturbing some horses on Oct. 6 in Maple Grove. A patrol was made but no firearm users were located.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Discharge of firearms can be disturbing to people and animals (domestic and livestock).&nbsp; Prior to hunting and or target shooting, be aware of your surroundings and who may be disturbed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Follow provincial rules, and always seek the permission of landowners if not on your own property.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On Oct. 7, RCMP received an early morning call to assist in the location of an elderly person suffering&nbsp;from dementia who had wandered from home.&nbsp; Members assisted family in the search and were able to locate the missing person shortly thereafter.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The person had become disoriented and was stuck in mud when located.&nbsp; The person was taken to hospital for assessment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>RCMP were called to investigate an incident where a man was spotted stealing on Oct. 7. The man, a local hunter, told police a male was seen on camera stealing deer apples and generally&nbsp;disturbing the hunter&#8217;s bait site.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The matter was turned over to the Department of Natural Resources for further investigation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On Oct. 9, police were called to an address in Elmsdale where a lone male was observed peering into parked vehicles at 6 a.m.&nbsp; Despite an immediate patrol by members, no suspect was located.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Residents are reminded to always remove valuables and lock their vehicles when unattended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Police responded to a motorcycle collision in Milford on Oct. 9. The driver stated high winds blew his bike across both lanes and into loose gravel before the upset.&nbsp; He was unharmed, but the bike sustained minor damage and was towed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A youth was issued a warning and was to get a stern talking to by his mom after being caught littering on Oct. 10 in Milford. RCMP say they responded to a complaint of littering from a vehicle in the Milford area.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The caller provided a plate number to police. The owner was contacted and verified her son was the driver but that she would take matters into her own hands with the boy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A warning was issued as a result and the complainant was satisfied.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong><em>This column has been brought to you by:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[adrotate banner=&#8221;87&#8243;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Brought to you by: [adrotate banner=&#8221;87&#8243;] MILFORD: East Hants RCMP responded to 103 calls for service between Oct. 6-13.
