Arrests over threats
A MAN allegedly threatened occupants of a Swan Hill home earlier this week.
The man attended the Chapman Street address just after midnight.
Police patrolled the area and located a 52-year-old man.
He was arrested, interviewed, charged and bailed to attend court at a later date.
Trailer stolen
OFFENDERS stole an old box trailer from a Tyntynder property earlier this month.
They stole various items from the shed on Tyntynder Central Road some time between September 2 and 5.
Four times the limit
A DRIVER was almost four times over the legal alcohol limit when intercepted by police last Friday.
Highway patrol officers pulled over the 65-year-old driver.
After giving a positive preliminary breath test, his evidentiary breath test indicated a reading of 0.194.
He is expected to appear on summons at a later date.
Legal lesson
POLICE intercepted a speeding learner driver whose passenger didn’t hold a licence.
Culgoa police intercepted the vehicle on the Calder Highway after it was detected travelling at 150km/h
The 32-year-old learner driver was “unaccompanied” as the passenger did not have a licence and that passenger provided a false name.
A preliminary breath test on the driver indicated the presence of alcohol and she refused to accompany police for an evidentiary breath test.
The vehicle was impounded.
