A story in today’s Brandon Sun shares further detail on Wednesday’s reported incident of a suspicious individual allegedly taking photos or video from beyond a local school ground.
On learning of the initial report it was common for there to be questions of which school is involved, something the School Division did not include in yesterday’s notice. According to Police via the Sun story the school was Earl Oxford. It’s said that a 35-year old man was located based on a report from a member of school staff. The man, who lives in the area and has no history of concern, denied taking photos to Police. In their follow up to the report Police have told the man to stay away.

As part of the notice from BSD it was suggested that parents remind children of best safety practices and to be aware of their surroundings. It was asked that any suspicious activity be reported to school administration or Brandon Police Service.
