This past week, March 24-30, the Columbia Valley RCMP responded to 59 calls for service.
The following is a Summary of some of the files officers responded to over the week:
On March 27-the Columbia Valley RCMP received a call regarding possible forged prescriptions being sent to the local pharmacies to be filled. The pharmacy suspected these prescriptions were suspicious and in fact they were. Police arrested the suspect for possession of a scheduled substance and uttering forged documents. The investigation is still ongoing but it’s believed the suspect(s) are linked to other fraudulent offences in Alberta. A shout out to the pharmacy and its employees for discovering the fraudulent documents and reporting these fraudsters to the police.
On March 27-the Columbia Valley RCMP received a 911 dropped call where all that was heard was a voice saying “don’t touch me.” Members made attempts to call back the number but none were answered. Subscriber information was obtained as well the phone was pinged multiple times in order to located the person(s). Eventually the RCMP in Cochrane, Alberta were able to locate the person. They were travelling and did not realize they had called 911.
