Victoria council candidate arrested after skipping court date
A woman who is currently registered to run for Victoria council and has vowed to boost the police department’s budget if elected has been arrested in Langley.
She faces sworn charges of obstructing a police officer, flight from police and driving without due care and attention. The charges have not been proven in court.“When elected I would lobby members of council to increase the Victoria Police Department’s budget incrementally in correlation to the population growth,” states her candidate bio.
During the July 1 incident, bike officers in James Bay were flagged down because of an improperly parked vehicle impacting traffic on Dallas Road. Officers found the large truck obstructing the northbound lane and began looking for its driver.
