ASSAULT CAUSING BODILY HARM
The Brandon Police Service has charged a 15-year-old girl after she allegedly assaulted another girl, causing her to suffer a concussion.
Police received a report on Tuesday that detailed how the 16-year-old victim was repeatedly kicked, punched and kneed, BPS said Friday.
The assault was captured on video surveillance, police said.
The girl accused in the attack, as well as her mother, went to the police station on Thursday after a warrant was issued for her arrest.
The girl was charged with assault causing bodily harm and was released on an undertaking with a Jan. 26 court date.
SEMI COLLISION NEAR HAMIOTA
A 76-year-old man driving a semi was taken to hospital with minor injuries after he was involved in a collision with another semi south of Hamiota on Monday afternoon.
The 23-year-old driver of the second semi did not require medical treatment.
RCMP, firefighters and paramedics responded to the collision shortly before 4 p.m., police said Friday.
The collision occurred when a semi travelling south on Road 140 West collided with a semi heading east on Highway 24. The intersection is a two-way stop and the right of way is given to eastbound and westbound traffic, Mounties said.
The southbound semi driven by the 23-year-old man was carrying two ammonia tankers — both of which had small leaks due to the collision, RCMP said. He was ticketed for driving carelessly and disobeying a stop sign for a combined fine of $875.
First responders closed the intersection for a few hours, setting up a wide perimeter until the scene was cleaned up.
