No brotherly love here
Twice last week Nelson Police were called to the 500 block of West Richards Street to deal with two separate incidents.
Wednesday (April 19), officers received a call of two men fighting in the street.
When police arrived they found the brothers fighting and arrested the two for causing a disturbance by fighting. The brothers, 26- and 24-years-old, were released on a Promise to Appear in court June 20.
The next day (Thursday), NPD were called to the same address regarding a landlord/tenant dispute and found the two males breaching their conditions of release.
Both were once again arrested until a court appearance Monday (April 23).
