CCPD Stats for August 2020

September 13, 2020 by Wayne Creed 9 Comments

The CCPD answered 115 calls for service in Cape Charles, and assisted state and county law enforcement 9 times (State police 2, Northampton 7).
The force noted 3 felony arrests and 7 misdemeanors.

45 foot patrol hours were logged, and 35 hours in Bay Creek.

Every police vehicle has been equipped with a new AED device. The only effective immediate treatment for sudden cardiac arrest is an electric shock from an automated external defibrillator (AED), administered as soon as possible. Police and law enforcement officers are often the first responders in a cardiac emergency, arriving even before emergency medical personnel.

Rundown of Arrests:
• Driving suspended
• Reckless driving by speed (excess of 85mph)
• Driving without license
• Obstruct justice
• Eluding to endanger
• Assault & batter family member
• Destruction of property
• Unauthorized use

    Why is Bay Creek listed separately…isn’t that part of Cape Charles?

      That would all depend on who you ask.

      Not to be smart with you, but Bay Creek is listed separately because it is not Cape Charles, it is Bay Creek, an exclusive community for those who live within its confines.

      People today who live in subdivisions or exclusive communities, say, The Villages in Florida, or Bay Creek, identify with their subdivision or community, not the town they might actually live in, and often, they don’t even know what town they actually live in, because their government they answer to is their own home owners association.

        Wow…I’m from “away” but very much from the country so I guess I’m not familiar with these exclusive enclaves–haha. I certainly did not expect such a place on the Eastern Shore. I have noticed that the U.S. Post Office has swept Bay Creek in with Cape Charles…do they not know that BC is special?
        BTW, on another subject, might you be related to Chris Plante?

          I’m not sure, but there is a likelihood.

          My people were in Quebec in 1648.

          So far as I know, they went there to escape the continual BULL**** in France.

          So there are Plantes in Canada and down here, as well.

          As to these subdivisions, which are really parts of the town they are in, not separate entities, it becomes ridiculous for many reasons.

          I have been in the town I am in for over 70 years, but because I do not live inside the limits of one of the many subdivisions or exclusive enclaves, I essentially do not exist, as those people tend to stick to their own.

          And if somebody new tells you where they live, they will tell you the name of the subdivision, as if of course you were going to know right where it is, when in fact, you have never heard of it before, and you ask them where it is, they won’t tell you what town; they’ll tell you where it is in relation to other subdivisions you have never heard of, and when you make that known to them, that you haven’t a clue as to what they are talking about, they treat you as if you are stupid.

          Family tradition has it that when those people blew the ****hole that was France back in 1648, they had their choice of places to go, including Cape Charles and Bay Creek, but they chose Quebec instead for its balmy climate, its modern shopping malls and highway system with rail linkage to Amtrac and points south, and the boating opportunities on the St. Lawrence coupled with a good harbor and an efficient modern, well-run yacht club, which is what is said to have steered them there instead of Cape Charles because of the perceived problems with the yacht club management in Cape Charles, plus the lack of good shopping opportunities in Cape Charles.

          And such is history written!
