BPS SEEKS PUBLIC’S HELP IN ARRESTING WANTED MAN
BPS is asking the public for help in locating Nathan Scott, who is accused of breaking into a residence on Westaway Bay and discharging a noxious substance that effected multiple people inside the residence. The incident took place on Nov. 8, 2023, after which Scott fled from the scene on foot, but was located, charged and arrested. Once released, he failed to attend court and a warrant for his arrest was issued. His current whereabouts are unknown. Any information or tips can be submitted to Brandon Crime Stoppers, which offers $2,000 for anyone submitting credible information that leads to Scott being apprehended. Information on any sightings of the accused can be phoned in at 204-727- 8477.
