On March 12, a woman reported a hit and run to her vehicle on main street in front of Tilly’s Restaurant in Tofield. “It appears the offending vehicle backed up and scraped the vehicle causing bumper and tail light damage,” said Warren.

On March 14, police received a report of a single vehicle rollover around 5 a.m. near Highway 14 and R.R. 170. A Jeep Cherokee entered the ditch and rolled after the driver swerved to avoid an animal on the road. Nobody was hurt in the incident.
