ENFIELD:<\/strong> Over the past two weeks, Officers with East Hants RCMP responded to 152 calls for service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are some of the highlighted calls as provided by East Hants S\/Sgt. Cory Bushell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

STOLEN TRUCK<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

On December 21, East Hants RCMP received a complaint of a stolen truck from the Noel area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The truck, a red 1996 Chevrolet half-ton was taken some time during the night prior. Police later received notification the truck had been located and recovered by the owner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The matter is still under investigation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Police are asking anyone with information to contact the East Hants RCMP at 902-883-7077 or Crime Stoppers a 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TASER LOCATED<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

East Hants RCMP received a complaint that a \u201cTaser\u201d was located in the public reception area of a business in Shubenacadie on Dec. 21. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00a0An officer attended the scene and retrieved what is commonly known as a stun-baton, capable to delivering a painful electric shock. These items are similar in nature to a cattle-prod, and some may erroneously believe they are perfectly legal to possess.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The taser stun baton RCMP said was found in Shubenacadie. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The truth of the matter is, they are considered a weapon and possession of one outside of an appropriate context, such as conducting proper farming activities, is a criminal offense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Police are still looking to identify the owner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PROPERTY DAMAGE BY ATVS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

East Hants RCMP received a complaint of ongoing property damage by ATV riders in Lakelands area on Dec. 22.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The caller reported a security light and driveway markers had been removed and destroyed. This type of behaviour makes a bad name for responsible ATV enthusiasts who respect private property and the environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As an ATV rider, if you witness other riders damaging property, riding while under the influence or riding in a dangerous or careless manner, report your findings to police.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Making ATV use a safe and responsible activity in East Hants is shared responsibility. Do your part to preserve the integrity of this popular and enjoyable past-time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 IMPAIRED DRIVING IN ENFIELD<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

An East Hants RCMP officer was on patrol on Dec. 22 when he came upon a Chevrolet Silverado sitting in the middle of Highway 2 in Enfield.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The driver, completely oblivious to police presence, was wildly spinning his tires, creating a large amount of smoke. The officer had his emergency lights activated, and eventually, the driver took notice and pulled off into a nearby business paring lot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The driver was immediately arrested for dangerous operation of a motor vehicle, and once in police custody, the officer detected the driver was also under the influence of alcohol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The driver, a 22-year-old Middle Sackville man, was taken to the detachment where he provided samples of his breath in excess of the legal limit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He was subsequently charged and will face the courts at a later date for impaired driving offenses. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
