ENFIELD: Over the past week, officers with East Hants RCMP responded to 120 calls for service.
The following is the highlighted calls as provided by Const. Preston Burns, Community Policing Officer with East Hants RCMP.
FOUR SUMMARY TICKETS ISSUED
On September 13 East Hants RCMP members issued four summary offence tickets to drivers who failed to move out of the closest lane to an emergency vehicle that was stopped and exhibiting flashing lights when another lane was available.
The “move over” law has been in effect since 2009 in the province of Nova Scotia but police officers, firefighters, EHS and tow truck operators continue to encounter drivers who fail to move over and slow down thereby putting their lives at risk.
Not only is it the safe and right thing to do, but it’s the law.
Drivers who fail to do so risk a fine of $352.50 for the first offence.
ONLINE LOAN FRAUD
On September 15, East Hants RCMP were made aware of yet another fraud via computer in Enfield.
The 27-year-old victim applied for a loan on-line.
During the process, the man was directed to buy $600.00 worth of gift cards and provide the activation codes to the unknown person.
The man then allowed the unknown person to gain access to his bank account remotely. The investigation continues.
East Hants RCMP would like to remind the public once again not to do that.
