BREWERY CELEBRATES GRAND OPENING
LEAMINGTON — Cured Craft Brewing Company in uptown Leamington was finally able to celebrate their grand opening this week with a ribbon cutting ceremony on Monday, September 27. Lisa and Scott Bradt, owners of Bradt’s Butcher Block, launched the idea in 2016 and were able to break ground at the Gregory Building on Mill Street West in the summer of 2019. Two weeks before their scheduled opening, the COVID pandemic hit and shut everything down. The Bradts were able to open last year and have now been able to hold their grand opening. Lisa Bradt gave an emotional speech about the challenges they’ve faced along the way, thanking her family, staff, patrons and the municipality for all their help. Above, the Bradt family cuts the grand opening ribbon. From left are Maegan, Lisa, Scott, Aidan and Josh Bradt. SUN photo
Boat thief apprehended when officer spots something fishy LEAMINGTON – One person has been arrested following a series of events that involved a stolen truck with a fishing boat in tow September 16. Just before 3:00 a.m. on the 16th, an Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) officer from the Leamington Detachment was on patrol when they observed a pickup truck towing a boat, which failed to have operating trailer lights. Police attempted to stop the vehicle but the driver fled the area. A short distance later, after striking several curbs causing severe damage to the vehicle, the driver lost control and struck a powerline cable support. The vehicle became immobilized. The
driver then attempted to flee on foot but was arrested without incident. Upon further investigation, it was discovered that the pickup truck, boat and trailer were reported stolen. A 22 year-old male from Leamington has been charged with flight from Peace Officer, dangerous operation, possession of property obtained by crime over $5,000, driving while suspended, and suspended driving for remedial measures. The accused was released and is scheduled to appear at the Ontario Court of Justice in Leamington on November 19 to answer to the charges. Anyone with information regarding this or any
