The Biggar RCMP's latest report detailed quite the joyride through a local park.
The detachment's June 23 list was headlined by the impaired operator of a black and red side-by-side, who fled police after reports of the four-wheeler making its way through Buckingham Park located along 3 Avenue E in Biggar.
Failing to stop for police, the side-by-side ended up crashing into the bushes and trees located towards the end of 4 Avenue, leading the driver to flee on foot. No other information was given, though Sgt. Dereck Crozier shared some thoughts.
"The good news is they are slowly running out of things to drive while under the influence." stated Crozier regarding the chase, and possible culprit behind it.
"Maybe a good old fashion horse would be the safest, at least we can trust the horse to return to the barn."

Other police business in Biggar over the past week included a stolen Stihl grass trimmer from a back yard. It has a custom head and a harness, and tips can be passed on to the detachment.
Other property seeking their owner involved a pair of bicycles that turned up on the side of Highway 14. Police believe that the children's bike and adult bike now in their possession fell off a transport vehicle and are hoping the tip can help the rightful owners jog their memory.
A collision during the week occurred at the rail crossing on Highway 656, where a passenger vehicle struck a CP Rail truck. The above incidents were some of 32 occurrences reported by the local detachment over the week.
