Theft / Assault x2 / Mischief to Property
On July 19th at 10:23 p.m., police responded to a business in the 700 block of 10th Street after a 29-year-old female stole merchandise and then returned to the store. Upon returning, the woman reportedly threw two bottles of water at employees, acted erratically, and caused damage inside the business. She was initially unarmed; however, when officers arrived, she had picked up a fire extinguisher.
The woman, who was believed to be intoxicated by drugs, was arrested for Theft, Assault with a Weapon and Mischief to Property. Police also determined that she was wanted on two Unendorsed Arrest Warrants, which will be executed once she is sober.
The female was brought to BPS detention cells and is scheduled to meet with the Crisis Response Unit before appearing in court on the morning of July 20th, 2026.
Breach of the Peace
Over the past 24 hours, BPS officers responded to two separate incidents that required police intervention, resulting in two individuals being arrested for Breach of the Peace. In the first incident, a 59-year-old man caused a disturbance at Brandon Regional Health Centre. After being provided with a taxi ride home, he stopped the taxi and laid down in the middle of 1st Street. EMS transported him back to the hospital, where he continued to cause disturbances. In the second incident, police were called to a residence after an unknown 24-year-old male was reportedly at a residence door attempting to gain entry. In both cases, the individuals were brought to BPS detention cells to allow the situations to de-escalate and to prevent their behaviour from continuing. They will be released once they are sober, calm, and able to safely care for themselves.
Stolen Vehicle Recovered
On July 19th at 1:26 p.m. a BPS officer located a stolen white Nissan at a hotel on Middleton Avenue. The registered owner is out of Carberry, and the report was entered by RCMP. The vehicle was towed back to BPS for further investigation and appropriate parties were notified.
Failure to Comply Undertaking
On July 19th at 4:02 p.m., Brandon Police Service received a report of a female jumping into traffic on Princess Avenue East. Officers located the 41-year-old woman in the 200 block. Upon arresting the highly intoxicated female, officers found her to be in possession of a small amount of methamphetamine, contrary to the conditions of her court order. She was arrested and held at BPS detention cells. She will be released on an Appearance Notice once sober, with a court date of September 21st, 2026.
Possession of a Weapon / Failure to Comply Undertaking
On July 19th at 5:47 p.m., BPS officers located a 34-year-old male passed out in a yard on Cornell Bay. The man was bound by court conditions prohibiting him from being intoxicated outside of his residence. During the arrest, officers located a bag in his possession containing a stick with a knife taped to it. He was arrested for breaching his court conditions and held in BPS detention cells. He will be released on an Appearance Notice once sober, with a future court date of September 28th, 2026.
