The Thompson RCMP detachment had their hands full this weekend.

 

Thompson RCMP sent out a press release earlier today, outlining several incidents that took place between early Saturday and  Monday morning.

 

On Saturday, police arrested an intoxicated 45-year-old man from Winnipeg, who threatened to kill a patron at The Hub restaurant.

 

The man was arrested for uttering threats, breaching his court-ordered curfew, and as well as a condition to abstain from consuming alcohol.

 

Following his arrest, the man threatened to kill the attending officer as well as their family, and he was taken into custody and is facing multiple charges.

 

Also on Saturday afternoon, police responded to a complaint of an impaired driver, who was located at the intersection of Thompson Drive and Cree Road South.

 

The driver, a 33-year-old woman from Oxford House, was determined to be drunk, and provided breath samples nearly two and a half times the legal limit.

 

In another incident early Sunday night, RCMP was attending the scene of a separate case in Paint Lake, when they came across a 26-year-old man sleeping behind the wheel.

 

Police determined the man was inebriated, after he failed a roadside test and provided breath samples over the legal limit.

 

The man was released to appear in court at a later date.

 

Additionally, RCMP investigated a break-and-enter at a Stanford Bay residence after 1 a.m. Monday morning.

 

Police attended and arrested an intoxicated 41-year-old man from Thompson, who is in custody and may make an in-custody court appearance at a later date.
