Andrew David Elliott, 20, pled guilty to two charges of uttering a threat and one of failing to comply with a probation order. Attorney for the Crown Quinn Ross said that on June 5 the victim had contacted police regarding threats that had been made toward her while she was at work. Her son was also threatened. The accused, Ross said, had threatened to “kick the ---- out of the male and told the woman he would “take a knife and ram it up her ---”. The situation, he said, began after the victim saw Elliott going through her car and confronted him. Elliott was on probation at the time. Duty counsel Grant MacKinnon said the accused didn’t remember very much of the incident as he had been drinking at the time. He explained that Elliott helps to care for his grandfather, adding that the accused was not in a position to pay a fine. He requested Judge R.G.E. Hunter consider a suspended sentence and probation. Ross felt a harsher penalty was in order, however. “Given the violence of the language and that the victims were fearful I would ask for 30 days incarceration.” Hunter picked middle ground sending Elliott to jail for a total of 14 days, after which he will serve one year’s probation. He is to have no contact with the victims and is prohibited from owning weapons for five years. THEFT Trying to get what he believed was coming to him cost a Blyth man $400. Kevin John Campbell, 30, pled guilty to the theft of a woodsplitter. Ross said the theft occurred sometime between May 16-20. The victim didn’t report it at the time because “he figured it wouldn’t amount to anything.” Later the victim was told where the woodsplitter was and he went to find it Ross said it was easy for the victim to identify it as the one he owned because he had made a unique modification to it. “The informant told him that the accused had said he stole it because (the victim) owed him money,” Ross added. Rather than a suspended sentence and probation as requested by the Crown, Hunter imposed the $400 fine. THEFT An Auburn woman pled guilty to theft under $5,000. Ross said that on March 24 Kerri Heroux-Carpenter was seen taking a 40-ounce bottle of liquor from the Blyth grocery store and putting it in her purse. She picked up a loaf of bread which she paid for then left the store. The accused’s record was submitted. Defence counsel Phil Cornish said the mitigating factor was that the bottle had been recovered. His client, he said, had phoned the store and offered to return the bottle, but the owner said they were going to proceed with pressing charges. Hunter handed down a suspended sentence and placed Heroux- Carpenter on 12 months probation. She is not to enter the business during that time. MARIJUANA POSSESSION Gregory Beyersbergen of RR2, Lucknow pled guilty to marijuana possession. Ross said a police officer in North Huron had noticed the 21-year-old accused outside the beer store, taking a can of beer out of the case and entering the vehicle. There was alcohol in the vehicle when the officer approached it, and he noticed an odour of alcohol. During the search a small bag of marijuana was discovered. Beyersbergen has no record. He was granted a conditional discharge and placed on six months probation.

One male was airlifted to the London Health Sciences Centre with serious injuries. The Hanover Police Service investigation led to Wingham where police there assisted in locating suspects in a resident in the area of Scott Street. The Ontario Provincial Police (OPP), the OPP Criminal Investigation Branch (CIB) under the direction of Detective Inspector Scott Naylor were requested to provide the resources of the OPP Tactical and Rescue Unit, the Emergency Response Team and the Huron OPP Crime Unit.
