Here is a look back at some files we attended over the month of August:

•On the evening of August 4th, officers spotted a suspicious group of individuals hiding near several parked vehicles in the Moody Centre area of town. Officers recognized one of the individuals and a query confirmed she was wanted Canada-wide for a Robbery charge. The female was arrested and later booked into our cells for a bail hearing.

•On August 14th around 10:30 p.m., officers were called to a suspicious circumstance where it was reported a male was walking through a residential complex, shirtless, waving a sword. The male was located and briefly arrested; however, it was determined the sword was a practice replica. The male apologized and agreed not to practice his sword martial arts in public.

•On August 18th just before midnight, an officer observed a driver of an SUV run a red light on St Johns Street. The officer stopped the vehicle and identified the driver - who was prohibited province-wide. He was arrested and his vehicle was impounded. The officer served him with an appearance notice to compel him to court, however, the driver dramatically ripped up the document in front of the officer and threw the ripped up pieces on the police car. Shockingly, this did not nullify the document and he is still due in court… hopefully he remembers his court date.

•On August 20th, a witness reported a dump truck on Guildford Way with an insecure load – a large rock was seen flying out of the trailer, nearly striking a pedestrian. A traffic officer attended and located other trucks which also had insecure loads, including one truck which was removed from service due to safety defects [see photos].

•Last Thursday about 2:30 a.m., an officer patrolling observed a young male acting erratically in the parking lot of Moody Centre Skytrain Station. He stated he was lost and it was learned he was a missing person out of the Fraser Valley. The officer was able to safely reunite him with his parent, concluding the missing person investigation.

We teamed up with local enforcement agencies this past weekend to conduct marine enforcement on the Burrard Inlet & Indian Arm. Officers enforced safety regulations, speed restricted zones, and impaired operation legislation.

You can expect to see more enforcement on the waterways! Remember to plan ahead and be prepared. For more information about marine safety, check out Transport Canada.

We hope you are enjoying the start of the long weekend! Here’s a look back at some files we handled this past month:

•On Canada Day, just after 5 p.m., officers were called to Rocky Point Pier for a report of a man who was celebrating Canada’s birthday in his birthday suit. The naked man was arrested soon after [don’t worry – his sweatpants are on in the photo ^]. The male was determined to be heavily intoxicated and spent the evening in our cellblock to sober up. He was also in possession of suspected stolen items, which were seized.

•In the early hours of July 17, officers pulled over a vehicle and the driver was determined to be an unlicenced 15-year-old youth who took his mom’s car on a joyride with his buddies. As you can imagine, his mother was not very pleased with our 3 a.m. wake up call.

•On July 19, at around 2 a.m., a frontline officer observed a man inside a parked van near the Inlet Skytrain Station. The van had fake licence plates on it and when stopped by the officer, the male provided stolen identification. However, the officer did not fall for it. The man’s true identity was ascertained, and it was learned he was breaching multiple court-imposed conditions including a curfew. It was also determined the vehicle was in fact stolen. He was transported to our cellblock and held overnight for a bail hearing.

•Late last week, officers and firefighters were called to the Rocky Point boat launch for a report of a partially submerged SUV. The driver accidentally left the vehicle in neutral while launching a boat, causing the vehicle to roll into the water. Fortunately, there were no injuries and the vehicle was yanked out of the water with help from firefighters.

•Yesterday afternoon, a caller reported a female who appeared to be sleeping while behind the wheel of a slow moving Tesla on Barnet Highway. Officers stopped the vehicle on St Johns Street and issued a ticket to the driver for using the self-driving function.

•And several hours later, 3 separate callers reported a male who threw a brick through a glass window of a business on Clarke Street. The well-known offender was arrested & remains in custody at this time.
