The driver of this Honda Accord was very fortunate to escape this single-vehicle incident on Mahood Lake Road with only minor injuries.

100 Mile RCMP responded to 87 complaints and calls for service during the past week.

Rings handed in

On Sept. 14, a representative from the Cedar Crest Society brought a case containing rings that had been left in the society’s drop off bin overnight.

The society had concerns that these rings may be stolen, but they are not associated to any current theft investigation in 100 Mile House.

The rings will be held at the 100 Mile House RCMP detachment office for 90 days. If not claimed, they will be returned to the Cedar Crest Society.

Anyone bringing forward a claim of ownership will have to provide a description of the case and rings.

Business break-in

Sometime overnight Sept. 13-14, unknown culprits broke the side door glass at a business in the 900 block of Alpine Avenue and gained entry into the business.

Several drawers in the business were opened and rummaged through. A container of loose change and numerous watches were stolen from the business.

Anyone having any information about this break-and-enter is asked to call the 100 Mile House RCMP at 250-395-2456 or call CrimeStoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).

Severe damage

Around 6:55 p.m. on Sept. 10, emergency services crews were dispatched to a single-vehicle incidents in the 6400 block of Mahood Lake Road near Deka Lake.

The male driver of a Honda Accord had left the roadway and impacted a hydro pole. The vehicle flipped over onto its roof, which resulted in severe damage to the vehicle. The driver was extricated from the vehicle by the fire department and the driver, who had minor injuries, was taken by ambulance to the 100 Mile District General Hospital. He was subsequently transported to Royal Inland Hospital in Kamloops for precautionary reasons.

The investigation into this matter is continuing.

Excessive speed

There were incidents of excessive speed during the past week and both were on Highway 24 near Bridge Lake.

Members of 100 Mile House Traffic Services stopped two drivers who had been speeding. The speeds were 51 and 68 km/h over the posted speed limit.

Both drivers were charged with excessive speeding and their vehicles were impounded for seven days.
