The Regina Police Service says it’s issued another ticket for someone disobeying COVID-19 public health orders after responding to a domestic conflict call on Feb. 11.
Police say they were called to a home near the 1200 block of McTavish Street shortly after midnight.
Officers were advised that one of the people involved in an argument should have been self-isolating after testing positive for COVID-19.
The 47-year-old man was escorted back to his home by police, who were wearing personal protective equipment, to self-isolate.
Police say the man was “extremely” agitated and appeared to be intoxicated so officers decided against issuing him a ticket that night.
Officers went back to the man’s home on Feb. 18 and served him a $2,800 ticket.
Regina police say they have issued 25 tickets for COVID-19-related breaches since the beginning of the pandemic.
Under the province’s current public health order, households are not allowed any visitors unless it is a single person living on their own, who is then allowed to meet with one household of under five people.
