No charges from Hotel Vic fight
Police responded to a fight on Main Street outside of the Hotel Victoria.
When officers arrived, they learned that a man and woman involved in the altercation had left before police arrived. The two other people involved were still there and weren’t injured.
There had been a physical altercation and some threats between the two groups. Alcohol was a factor.
All parties left and went home. Charges are not being pursued.
Sometime in the early morning, an unknown suspect entered a vehicle on Panorama Terrace.
Fortunately, nothing of value was left in the vehicle, so nothing was taken.
The owner had left the vehicle unlocked so there was no damage. However, the vehicle had been riffled through.
Besides things they can sell, thieves are often looking to steal your registration papers since they list your name and address on them.
Criminals use this type of information for identify theft. Please lock your vehicles and remove anything valuable.
