One person is in police custody following an evening break and enter on Braefoot Road in Saanich on Nov. 2.

On Tuesday morning, Const. Markus Anastasiades, public information officer for the Saanich Police Department, told Black Press Media the incident is under investigation so the department will not be releasing details at this time.

However, he noted that police “do not believe there is any risk to the public, as a person was taken into custody.”

According to BC Emergency Health Services, paramedics were called in by police just after 6 p.m. the same night “for reports of an assault in the 3900-block of Braefoot Road.”

Paramedics cared for and transported one patient with non-life-threatening injuries to hospital.
