STANDOFF – A team effort checkstop on the Blood Indian Reserve last Friday (Sept 9th) resulted in a long list of infractions.
The purpose of the operation was to enforce all the traffic statutes and criminal code offences, specifically for road-users who jeopardize public safety through their driving behaviour.
A total of 102 charges were laid including: a child not in a seat belt, and charges for suspended drivers, those with no insurance or driver’s license, failing to produce documents and impaired driving.
During the checkstop, 12 drivers were found to be suspended and 18 vehicles were towed.
Blood Tribe police were assisted in their operation by the Lethbridge Police Service Traffic Unit, Commercial Vehicle Enforcement, Sheriff’s Integrated Traffic Unit and the RCMP.
