While Kitimat RCMP officers were dealing with a traffic issue at the intersection of Kuldo Blvd and Haisla Blvd at approximately 8:30 am on February 21st, a vehicle was observed entering the intersection at a high rate of speed, needing to swerve to miss another vehicle. A traffic stop was conducted and the investigating officer determined the vehicles insurance had expired. Once the driver was identified, it was further found the driver was prohibited from driving and there may have been a mechanical issue with the vehicle. The driver was arrested for driving while prohibited and released on an appearance Notice to attend court on a future date. The driver was also issued a Box one notice and order immediately removing the vehicle from the highway, as such the vehicle was towed and impounded for the prohibited driving offence as well.

A Kitimat resident attended the Kitimat RCMP detachment on February 25th with a concern for a package they had received but they had not ordered. The package had all the proper information of the recipient, which was concerning as they had not provided that information to anyone recently. The investigating officer carefully took the package and opened it. It was found that the package had been sent to the recipient by one of their utility providers. The resident happily left the detachment with the package, feeling much better. (2025-657)
