ENFIELD: Over the past week (Aug. 16-23) officers with East Hants RCMP responded to 82 calls for service.

Here is a look at a couple of the highlighted calls as provided by East Hants RCMP S/Sgt. Cory Bushell. 

ABANDONED VEHICLE FOUND

On August 17, East Hants RCMP were called to a church in the Milford area for an abandoned vehicle.

The property representative attended the church that day to discover a car had been driven into an excavated hole on the property.  The property was under construction at the time. 

Police located the vehicle’s owner who advised they were unfamiliar with the area and did not realize the site was under construction.  They drove into the parking lot to find a place to park and sleep for the night and accidentally drove into the open hole. 

The incident did not cause any injuries. 

With the help of a tow truck, the matter was resolved.

CAR VS MOTORCYCLE COLLISION

 On August 22nd, an East Hants RCMP member was on patrol in Milford when he witnessed a collision between a motorcycle and a car. 

The officer observed the driver of the car, a person in their 90’s, fail to yield the right of way. 

The driver pulled out onto highway #2 from a parking lot and into the path of oncoming traffic, causing the collision. Luckily, there were no serious injuries.

In any case where sufficient rationale exists from driving evidence, witness or family accounts, police may request Access Nova Scotia conduct a review of a driver’s capability to safety operate a motor vehicle.
