March 24, 2014<\/strong><\/p>\nA 15-year-old Kingaroy girl has been charged after she allegedly tried to free a young male friend from police custody on Friday afternoon.<\/p>\n
Officer-in-Charge of Kingaroy Police, Senior Sergeant Duane Frank, said a 15-year-old youth was being escorted back to the police cells after appearing in court when the girl confronted police behind the courthouse.<\/p>\n
Snt Sgt Frank said the girl was abusive, obstructed police and was extremely aggressive in her bid to release her friend.<\/p>\n
She has been charged with trespassing on police property and obstructing police.<\/p>\n
Police investigations revealed she was wanted on a number of outstanding arrest warrants.<\/p>\n

So far during March, Kingaroy police have breath-tested more than 1000 drivers on local roads.<\/strong><\/p>\nNine drink-drivers have been charged as well as nine drug-drivers.<\/p>\n
Snr Sgt Frank said drink drivers had been detected in the early hours of the morning, at lunchtime and in the mid-afternoon.<\/p>\n
“This justifies why police are doing random breath tests anywhere at any time,” he said.<\/p>\n
“There is zero tolerance to this type of behaviour.”<\/p>\n

Two alleged drink drivers were detected in Kingaroy last Tuesday.<\/strong><\/p>\nAt 4:00am, police stopped a 22-year-old woman in Avoca Street. They will allege she had a BAC of 0.073.<\/p>\n
At 3:00pm, a 44-year-old Kingaroy man was pulled over and tested in Youngman Street. He allegedly blew 0.112.<\/p>\n
“It was 3:00pm, school time, one of the busiest times of the day,” Snr Sgt Frank said.<\/p>\n

Police have issued two 20-year-old Kingaroy men with notices to appear in court after they were allegedly found trespassing in the grounds of Taabinga State School on Friday.<\/p>\n
* * *<\/strong><\/p>\nA driver of a Ford stationwagon has been issued with a ticket for unsafe reversing after backing out on to Alford Street on Wednesday morning, straight into the path of a Toyota Hilux.<\/p>\n
The Ford was badly damaged in the ensuing crash but fortunately neither driver was injured.<\/p>\n
* * *<\/strong><\/p>\nTaabinga State School will be “adopting a cop” on Friday morning with Constable Chris Barron taking on the community liaison role.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
