The man is well-known to police.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Charges have been laid as a result, said S\/Sgt. Bushelll.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>RCMP responded to a complaint of a hit and run accident on Oct. 27 in the Elmsdale Petro Canada parking lot. A blue Mitsubishi SUI backed into another vehicle, causing minor damage and then left the scene without providing driver information or insurance particulars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If anyone has information on this matter they are asked to contact the East Hants RCMP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On Oct 28, police responded to a complaint of an impaired driver in the ditch in the Nine Mile River area.&nbsp;Upon arrival, police discovered a 46-year-old male sitting&nbsp;in a large commercial vehicle which had run off the road.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The male was taken in&nbsp;for testing and blew&nbsp;2.5 times the legal limit.

A local senior was tricked into sending gift cards to a&nbsp;crook who posed&nbsp;as a family friend in financial trouble.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The public is reminded would be thieves often request victims send gift cards, or other non-traditional sources of money which are hard to trace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If someone reaches out by e-mail or phone or social media\u00a0asking for money and it seems fishy &#8211; it probably is.
