ENFIELD: East Hants RCMP responded to 91 calls for service between Dec. 15 and Dec. 23 throughout the municipality.

In this column, S/Sgt. Cory Bushell provides some of the highlighted calls members attended to during the past eight days.

On Dec. 16, police responded to a complaint of a collision in Minasville between a Farm Tractor and a Cadillac. The Tractor was rear-ended by the Cadillac, causing the tractor to split in half.

Both drivers of each vehicle sustained injuries. The driver of the Cadillac was transported to hospital by EHS.

The matter is still under investigation and charges are pending.

While on patrol on Dec. 16, a member spotted a vehicle with the license plate obscured by dirt.

A traffic stop was initiated and upon requesting the driver’s license and registration, the officer found the driver to be driving while revoked, without proper registration or insurance.

The driver, a 39-year-old from the Kennetcook area, was subsequently charged, and his vehicle towed.

On Dec. 17, officers responded to a report of a theft of a large amount of cash from a vehicle in the Mount Uniacke area.

The investigation is ongoing, and police are asking anyone with information to contact the East Hants RCMP at 902-883-7070 or Crime Stoppers.
