This month officers from Bribie Island continued with heightened traffic enforcement across the division as part of the station’s activities; many vehicles were intercepted for roadside breath testing, and a number of traffic infringement notices were issued, mainly for speeding, failing to wear a seatbelt and licence related offences. Infringement notices were also issued by officers from the Road Policing Unit. Officers from Bribie Island also conducted additional patrols and enforcement activity as part of state wide traffic operation Anticline, which focused on random breath testing.

Despite the large number of roadside breath tests, no drink drivers were detected during the operation which was good to see. During the month, officers attended several domestic violence incidents, including the contravention of protection order conditions, and some that required an application for a protection order. The other matters were referred to counselling or similar services.

Bribie Island and Caboolture has several dedicated counselling and support services which stand ready to assist people who have been exposed to domestic violence. More information about those services is available by calling the station on 3410 9222. Always ring Triple Zero (000) in an emergency. The station has recently received another supply of ‘Stop DV’ drink coasters, which will be distributed about the communities shops and hotels. The coasters contain information about local support services, and were kindly donated by our local charity Busy Fingers.

This month, officers were called to burglary offences at Calypso Court, Godwin Beach and Bribie Island Road, Ningi. A tap and copper pipe were also reported stolen from Bestman Avenue, Bongaree. If anyone has information which may assist police in their investigation of these matters, please contact Policelink or Crime Stoppers. You may remain anonymous if you wish.
