Officers and witnesses take stand in cop’s firearm trial TOWNSMAN STAFF

The trial of a Cranbrook RCMP officer continued Tuesday in Cranbrook Supreme Court, as witnesses and responding officers testified in front of Justice Trevor Armstrong and the jury. Richard Drought was charged with careless use or storage of a firearm after the Independent Investigations Office (IIO) recommended the charge that stemmed from a police incident in October 2012. Crown counsel Oleh Kuzma set up the framework of the trial in his opening statement to Justice Trevor Armstrong and the jury.

Two killed in collision near Jaffray Monday TOWNSMAN STAFF

Two people died following a two-vehicle motor collision that occurred on Highway 3/93 near Jaffray on Monday afternoon. The incident involved a westbound 2014 Toyota Matrix that drifted out of the single lane of westbound travel into the path of a eastbound 2007 Dodge Dakota pickup truck. The driver of the Dodge truck attempted to avoid the collision by pulling over to the shoulder of the highway, but a head-on collision still occurred. The Dodge driver, a 77 year old man, suffered serious, but non life-threatening injuries. He was transported to Calgary by STARS air ambulance to receive treatment for his injuries. The names of the victims have not yet been released as of press time.
