            Shortly before 10 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 18 while patrolling the hockey arena in Carlyle during the hockey game, Carlyle RCMP were advised that a young child had been taken from the arena by an adult male.

            The child's guardian recognized the male. However, there was no known relationship to the child.

            Members of the Carlyle RCMP-with the assistance of Estevan RCMP Traffic Services-quickly located the male at a residence near the arena and arrested him.

            The child was brought to EMS and subsequently, they transported the child to hospital for assessment. The child was then released and returned to the care of the guardian.

            A 29-year-old male from Carlyle made his first court appearance Monday, Nov. 21 in Estevan and is facing several charges.
