An elderly Hamilton man is suffering serious injuries following a road accident. On Saturday afternoon, the 80-year-old was crossing at King Street East and Rosedale Avenue when he was struck by a vehicle. There are reports the victim was not using a crosswalk. He was taken to hospital where he is recovering, and police are asking any witnesses of the crash to come forwards.

Police say alcohol was a factor in a case that saw the arrest of a Hamilton man. On Friday evening the suspect was on a city bus near Queenston and Rosewood when he got into an argument with another passenger. When others told the man to calm down he produced a large hunting knife from within his shorts, attacking one victim. The driver quickly stopped, letting all the passengers off, and police arrested the suspect. Now, 52-year-old Terry Walsh has been charged with possession of a weapon and assault among other offences.

A Norfolk driver is facing charges. On Saturday police on Chapel and Head Street in Simcoe noticed a cyclist holding on to the back of a moving pickup truck. Police warn that stunts like these are dangerous and can easily result in someone being killed. The pickup driver has been charged under the Highway Traffic Act.

Officials are investigating following a Brantford break and enter. Sometime between late Friday night and early Saturday thieves broke into a business on Clarence Street South. According to reports they entered a fenced compound on the property, taking a cash register as well as flowers and trees. There’s currently no description on any suspects or how many were involved.

A 100-year-old woman has recovered after a sign fell on her. She was walking past an apartment building on Main Street West Sunday afternoon when the sign, which showed the name of the building, dropped, pinning her to the ground. Police and fire services were called to the scene and managed to free her. She was treated for minor injuries.
