June 12 - Weekend Report

Sun, 2011-06-12

Suspicious Activity - Around 5pm on Friday, police responded to a report of two males on a motorcycle following a bus. Officers located the bus involved stationary along route #7 in the area of South Road and St. Paul’s Lane in Paget. It appears that two young men on a motorcycle followed the #7 bus from the Washington Street, Pembroke terminal and en route an object was thrown at the bus. As a result, the bus driver stopped the bus near St. Paul’s Lane. While officers were at the scene the suspects rode past and were pursued to the ‘S’ Hill, Ord Road Paget area where they managed to make good their escape on foot. The motorcycle the suspects were on, which turned out to be stolen, was seized. A further search of the area by officers with the assistance of a K9 unit did not locate the offenders. Inquiries into this incident are ongoing and anyone with any information is encouraged to contact the Hamilton Criminal Investigation Unit on 295-0011.
