In the Morden Police Service’s most recent report, vehicle incidents are a theme. A three-car accident One instance, a collision that took place on August 21st, involved three vehicles, according to Sergeant Chris Flook of the service. Police were dispatched to the intersection of 1st Street and Thornhill Street at 6 a.m. for the collision, which involved a green Honda Accord that turned in front of an oncoming white GMC Sierra that subsequently struck the vehicle and pushed it into a red Dodge Ram. “It was a driver travelling down Thornhill [Street] and not quite judging the distance between [themselves and] the next vehicle well enough,” said Sergeant Flook. “The one driver [in] the Honda Accord was transported to the hospital just for medical examination.” Sergeant Flook added that the vehicles were towed from the scene, but no charges were laid. Another collision and ripped wires Morden Police also responded to a collision on August 18th. According to its report, a grey Toyota Corolla was stopped on Thornhill Street waiting to turn left onto 19th Street when a grey Chevrolet Cruz rear-ended it. Sergeant Flook said that no injuries were reported from the accident.

In response to the incident, Sergeant Flook has a reminder for the community. “Just make sure your vehicles are always secure, doors are locked, and any valuables are kept out of sight,” he said. “If you do feel it's valuable, take it inside.” Sergeant Flook added that police do not have any leads on the incident, but the investigation is ongoing. A smooth Corn & Apple weekend Aside from the vehicular incidents, the Modern Police also had an increased presence in the community last weekend at the Corn & Apple Festival. Sergeant Flook said that overall, there was a slightly lower call volume than in typical years. “We dealt a lot with parking issues, which seem to be predominant over Corn & Apple,” he said. “People [were] trying to find their parking spot wherever they could, blocking driveways, [so that] resulted in us towing quite a few vehicles over the weekend.” The sergeant added that the Corn & Apple parade went well. He said he’s thankful to the community for its cooperation during the significant event and reports that overall, it was a safe Corn & Apple weekend. With files from Robyn Wiebe
