and quickly walked away. Police re-established contact with the man on Main St. The man confirmed he was alright, and appeared sober and dressed for the cold weather. Police offered to drive the man to the shelter but the man declined the offer.
Suspicious occurrence
On December 1 at 10pm, a man reported that he spoke with a male driver in a silver sedan frantically driving up and down Main St looking for his adult sister, who was heavily intoxicated and possibly stuck outside somewhere. The sister was described as wearing a heavy jacket and pyjama pants. With extremely limited information about who the male driver was, or who they were looking for, police stopped two silver sedans, but both drivers denied looking for an intoxicated sister. Police knocked on the door of a nearby well-known residence. The homeowner answered the door and police observed an intoxicated woman inside with matching clothing passed out in a chair. The homeowner was sitting with another woman watching a movie, and both denied knowing who the woman was, or how she got there. They said she arrived around 10pm; the same time police were dispatched. The homeowner asked police to remove the drunk woman. After leaving the residence, the woman was arrested for being intoxicated in public. She was able to provide police with the name of a family member that could care for her. Police transported her to her family’s house where a mother in-law agreed to watch over her while she sobered up. Police were never able to identify the male driver that was frantically looking for his sister.
