Day shift #1
We received a call that interrupted briefing, a report of a possible prowler in the early morning hours. Several of us headed towards the house including our K9 officer. After thoroughly checking the house and yard there was no sign of a prowler and the K9 didn’t pick up any sort of track. There’s no doubt the complainant heard something and it was better to be safe than sorry. Continue reading Coroner’s report
Day shift #1
It was a fairly routine day, we spent some time getting settled in with our new Sergeant. I took a handful of routine calls and worked on 2 reports to crown counsel for charge recommendations. I did assist one family with a firearms pickup. An elderly family member could no longer care for the firearms and no one else had a valid firearms license. I secured the firearms and lodged them for safekeeping for the time being so the family has one less thing to worry about in a difficult time.
Callout shift
One of our platoons was short for their Charlie shift so I took an afternoon shift to help out on days off. Unlike most Charlie shifts I was working alone as my partner for the night had a recruit so they were already paired up.
Day shift #1
The day started out with someone turning in a decent sized box of ammunition that was part of an estate. Some of the cartridges were quite old, hand loaded and showed signs of decomposition. This is a potential sign that the ammunition could be unstable and required special handling. I catalogued it and arranged for proper destruction.
