RENFREW — The Renfrew Detachment of the OPP investigated 175 calls for service the final week of December 2016. The calls included family disputes, a break, enter and theft and motor vehicle collisions.
Break, Enter and Theft
A family home in Admaston Bromley Township was broken into on Christmas Eve while the family was attending mass. The home near Stone Road and the Village of Douglas was entered between 7 p.m. and 10 p.m.
A window was forced open and personal property, identification, and a 60-inch TV was stolen from the home. Also stolen were Christmas gifts, jewelry and a guitar. Physical evidence was collected by police at the scene.
Domestic Disputes
Renfrew and Arnprior OPP officers investigated six domestic. One female was charged with assault and one male was charged with failing to comply with an undertaking and criminal harassment.
RIDE Spot Checks
Officers will continue to conduct random RIDE (Reduce Impaired Driving Everywhere) spot checks during the festive season when drinking is perhaps more common. Make the smart decision and plan ahead when you will be drinking. Take a cab home, call a friend to pick you up, stay overnight or designate a sober driver before the party starts. Driving in Ontario is a privilege that comes with some responsibility, including driving sober. Please drive sober and ensure all road users have a safe and happy year.
