Chase Food Bank Van Stolen
O
n August 13th, 2021 Chase RCMP received a report that the Chase Food Bank delivery van had been stolen during the night. The van was parked at the Curling Club parking lot in Chase. In the days after the van was stolen, Police were advised of sightings in Salmon Arm, Turtle Valley, Scotch Creek and Celista. The van is quite distinctive – a
white GMC Savana with a large refrigeration unit on top. Some of the decals may have been removed however, as of the last sighting, the word ‘FOOD’ was still written in orange on the side. This van is used by the Chase Hamper Society to bring donations of perishable food items to Chase, where they are distributed in emergency food hampers to those in need.

RCMP RELEASE August 2021 submitted by Chase RCMP
MENTAL HEALTH EMERGENCY On August 14th, 2021 at approximately 7:30 pm, Chase RCMP members assisted an adult female who was experiencing a mental health emergency. This incident occurred on the Pine Street Bridge in Chase. The distraught female was attempting to jump from the bridge into the water and was being held on to by police officers who were holding on to the female’s arms while she struggled to free herself. The female’s personal safety was at serious risk and the situation was very stressful for Police and the public. Several bystanders recognized they could be of assistance and jumped into action despite the risk to their own well-being. The female climbed back over the railings of the bridge and taken to safety. In the end, the female was transported to hospital by Police with no physical injuries. In this instance several factors contributed to a positive resolution: 1) community members and bystanders who were concerned and took appropriate action; 2) de-escalation skills of the attending Police Officers; and 3) the female’s own decision to allow Police to help her.
to an address in Chase. Police attended the address and found the car parked in the driveway still running. An older female was sitting in the driver’s seat, listening to loud music. Worried that her erratic driving could be the result of a medical issue, Police asked the driver if she was alright. During the conversation, Police noted her speech was very slurred and she had an odour of alcohol on her breath. Police began an impaired driving investigation. The female was given multiple opportunities to provide a sample of her breath into the alcohol screening device. Each time, she held her breath and pretended to blow into the device. This is not an uncommon trick and it is very obvious. Police responded by explaining (again) to the female how to provide a proper sample. Police explained that the penalty for failing to provide a sample is the same as the penalty for blowing a ‘fail’. The female continued to pretend to blow into the device, swore at Police and then refused to cooperate. She was served a 90 day immediate prohibition from driving and her vehicle was impounded for 30 days.
COLLISION On August 1st, 2021 at 7:19 pm, Chase RCMP were advised of a motor vehicle collision on Squilax Anglemont Road near Celista. An older Dodge Caravan crossed the centre line, struck a concrete barrier and then went into the ditch. Witnesses assisted the driver until Police and ambulance arrived. Police were told by the witnesses that the male driver appeared to be drunk and open alcohol was observed in the vehicle. Breath samples were obtained from the driver which resulted in ‘fail’ readings. He was issued a 90 day prohibition from driving and his vehicle was impounded for 30 days. He suffered minor injuries in the collision.
DROPPED 911 On August 4th 2021 at 3:47 pm, Salmon Arm RCMP were advised of a dropped 911 call from a cell phone. The call-taker heard a female hyperventilating who was unable to speak with the call-taker—then the call disconnected. When Police attempted a call back, the phone was turned off. Given the circumstances, it was assumed that the call was an emergency and significant resources were deployed. The GPS coordinates received in relation to the 911 call indicated the phone appeared to be travelling westbound along the Trans Canada Highway toward Chase. Chase RCMP were provided with a description of the vehicle, which was registered to the phone’s owner and were requested to intercept. Police located the vehicle just outside Chase and conducted a traffic stop. The male driver explained that the female passenger phoned 911 during a panic attack but was fine now. The female passenger did appear to be fine; however, she was inexplicably angry with Police. She refused to exit the vehicle to speak with Police in private and was surprising rude especially given the amount of resources that went into responding to her 911 call. There was nothing further that could be done by Police and the couple continued on their way.
ERRATIC DRIVER On August 1st, 2021 at 8:30 pm, Chase RCMP were advised of a possible impaired driver on the Trans Canada Highway near Chase. The complainant reported that the vehicle was weaving all over the road and crossing the center line. Police were not in the area and were unable to make patrols. At approximately 10:00 pm, Chase RCMP received a second driving complaint about the same vehicle. The complainant suspected the driver was drunk because the vehicle was all over the road. The complainant provided a licence plate number which was registered

RCMP REPORT
EVACUATION: Late on the evening of August 5th, 2021, the Thompson Nicola Regional District contacted the Chase RCMP to advise that they had issued an extended Evacuation Order in relation to the White Rock Lake wildfire in the Monte Creek area. The new evacuation orders in the Chase RCMP jurisdiction included sections of Highway 97, all of Pritchard on the south side of the river, Chase Falkland Road and China Valley Road. The Pritchard Fire Department took on door to door notifications in the Pritchard area. Chase RCMP members with the assistance of two members from the Salmon Arm RCMP Detachment, conducted door to door notifications on Highway 97, Chase Falkland Road and China Valley Road. Most of the residents on Highway 97 were awake despite the late hour and ready to leave. Residents of Chase Falkland Road were not on evacuation alert and were very surprised to wake up to Police knocking on the door in the middle of the night. The notifications in rural areas were very time consuming because most homeowners had their driveway gates closed and locked for the night. This meant Police were climbing over fences and gates and walking down long driveways to knock on doors. On August 9th, the evacuation order in the Chase RCMP jurisdiction was rescinded and residents were glad to return home. Chase RCMP received no reports of looting as a result of the evacuations. There were, however, on-going issues with vehicles
running the checkpoints, occasionally at high rates of speed, putting those manning checkpoints at risk. THEFT OF SERVICES On August 7, 2021 Chase RCMP were called to a business in Sorrento to settle a dispute over the theft of services provided by the business. The business owner was upset that a female and her two children entered her business and did not purchase anything but used the washroom facilities and then departed. A licence plate was obtained and the business owner wanted the female charged with using her toilet paper, soap, water and paper towels, without permission and that "constituted theft". Police determined that no criminal activity had occurred and that the business could pursue the matter through the civil court to recoup her losses. SUSPICIOUS FIRE On August 8th, 2021 at 11:08 pm, Chase RCMP were requested to assist the Chase Fire Department at a structure fire on Hendry Avenue in Chase. By the time Police arrived, the Chase Fire Department had the fire under control and neighbouring homes were not damaged. Investigation determined that a neighbour saw a flash, followed by smoke coming from the vacant house. No one was seen in the immediate vicinity of the residence, but the fire does appear to be suspicious in nature. The matter is still under investigation.

KIJHL announces COVID-19 Vaccination Policy Emanuel Sequeira, Director of Communications KIJHL The Kootenay International Junior Hockey League (KIJHL) has announced a COVID-19 Vaccination Policy that will require all players, bench staff and on-ice officials to be fully vaccinated prior to the start of the league's 2021/22 regular season on October 1st. The policy also requires that all players, bench staff members and on-ice officials have received their first dose of the vaccine prior to any participation in a KIJHL training camp or any other on or off-ice team-based activity, effective immediately. “The decision to institute a COVID-19
vaccination policy was made with the goal of providing the safest and most healthy environment possible for our players, staff, game officials and all of our other league stakeholders,” says KIJHL commissioner Jeff Dubois. "At the outset of the pandemic we pledged to have that priority guide our decision-making and so the policy being announced today is a natural extension of that commitment." “We take our role as responsible community partners very seriously, and so we want everybody in the places where we live and play to feel confident that their local team is being proactive
to stop the spread of COVID-19. This policy also gives us the best opportunity to keep our players on the ice through an uninterrupted hockey season, which is vital for everyone in the KIJHL after a difficult 18 months and the cancellation of back-to-back Teck Cup championships." The KIJHL will be working with Interior Health to ensure that all individuals who are not yet fully vaccinated have the opportunity to receive their first or second vaccine dose, and the league will immediately begin a campaign to promote COVID-19 vaccinations in the communities where its teams operate.

submitted by Chase Rotary Last Tuesday, a crowd of over 60 people enjoyed music and a burger provided by Chase Rotary. The weather cooperated with no smoke or rain so the evening was pleasant and refreshing. Next Tuesday August 24th, join your neighbours and enjoy a local corn feed and more local musical talent from 6pm to 8 pm. Summer is slowly winding down and we will remember this year of Covid 19 and summer fires so let's put it behind us and enjoy each other's company and say "we did it!"
