HPS arrested a 51-year-old male after an investigation into the theft of $1300 worth of Twinkies from a locked delivery vehicle. Dubbed the "Twinkie Bandit" by investigators, the only thing this suspect ended up with was a little tighter belt and a court date in Walkerton.

HPS responded to another mental health crisis call today. A timely response and de-escalation tactics resulted in the safe apprehension of a person with a history of violence & unpredictable behaviour. The person is now in the care of medical professionals. #healthycommunities

HPS officers training with the Automatic Licence Plate Reader stopped their first suspended driver using the new on board camera & computer system. A 49-year-old female from West Grey was charged with Driving Under Suspension and issued a summons to appear in court. #SaferRoads

Yesterday, December 11th @GreyCounty lost two citizens to suspected #Fentanyl overdoses, one being a young mother & a resident of Hanover. Its time for people to stand up & call out these drug dealers to police who walk around with this deadly poison in their pockets.

HPS introduces a new crime fighting & road safety tool. This cruiser has an Automatic Licence Plate Reader that will help our members make our community & our greater communities safer. What's even better ... it was completely funded by a provincial grant from proceeds of crime.
