The Estevan Police Service received a request for a wellbeing check on a person in a home in the Pleasantdale area. They arrived and found a 57-year-old man "extremely intoxicated and threatening." The man was admitted to the hospital.

Later on, the man left against medical advice. Police caught up with him close to the hospital, and lodge him in cells until he sobered up, due to his level of intoxication. They also determined he was the person responsible for a grocery theft they received a report about earlier in the week. He was charged with theft under $5,000 and given an October court date.

Also from Saturday's EPS update:

  • Police are investigating a break and enter and mischief to a construction site.
  • Police received a report of a male unlawfully in a dwelling. Police attended and the male left when the home owner asked him to in front of police.
  • Police received a report of a break and enter to an apartment. Police attended and determined it was not a break and enter. They say either the resident left the door unlocked or the matter was being inappropriately reported.
  • A 37-year-old woman that was out past her curfew was located, arrested, charged, and released for court in October.
