A thief stole a purse, some CD's and a car stereo face plate from an unlocked vehicle parked in the 900 block Gibsons Way while the owner was away for an hour. People are reminded that they should not leave any valuables in their cars, and to always lock them to deter opportunistic thieves.

A witness called in a possible impaired driver report after following a vehicle on Highway 101 near Roberts Creek Road. The vehicle was reportedly drifting back and forth from the shoulder over the centre line and back. Records showed several similar reports had been made about the same vehicle, and due to the registered owner's age, a medical review from ICBC has been requested.
