RCMP Report: Assault arrests, drivers charged
There were three arrests for assault this past week in the Battlefords.
One was a 911 hang-up call from a residence on Trudeau Street in North Battleford Monday evening, where a woman was heard crying on the phone and saying she’d been assaulted before hanging up.
Officers had to force entry into the residence, where they found the victim suffering from injuries sustained in a new assault. The members then arrested 29-year-old Richard Poafpybitty.
Sgt. Neil Tremblay said the victim will make a full recovery.
