The Killam RCMP detachment had to investigate three false 911 calls, 25 911 call hang ups, and 11 false residential and commercial alarms in the month of March.
“That’s still a substantial waste of resources,” says NCO Sgt. Greg Gerbrandt.
RCMP dealt with two complaints of assault in March, both in Forestburg. Alcohol was likely a factor in the Mar. 21 complaint, says Gerbrandt, but the other was hockey related.
