Conclusions for missing student and hotel employee fraud investigations

The Estevan Police Service reported dealing with two matters on Tuesday, and both of them had a favourable outcome.

Police were notified of a young student that went missing from an elementary school. A search ensued, but soon ended as the child was found being brought back to the shcool by his mother.

A fraud involving an employee at an Estevan hotel was also reported. Police investigated, determined the matter was not a fraud, and the issue was resolved without incident.
