RCMP: The wrong sort of 'emergency flashers'
By Trail Champion
On Friday, July 19, 2024, at 12 p.m., a frontline Trail and Greater District RCMP received a report that a topless 55-year-old Nelson woman was allegedly waving her shirt in the air and standing in the middle of the Hwy 22, near Trail, according to RCMP Sgt. Mike Wicentowich. He said the woman’s vehicle was parked nearby on the side of the road, and that a motorist stopped to check on the woman, who claimed that she was drunk and needed to stop for a break from driving.
“An officer patrolled the area and located the woman and her vehicle parked in a parking lot in the 700 block of Victoria Street. The woman claimed to be named Kim Kardashian
and said she was trying to sell sunglasses to a local business but was not successful. The officer determined, surprisingly, that the woman was sober.”
The heat affects us all differently I guess. And that’s one way to get people to stop and provide roadside assistance,
Wicentowich said.
