Peterborough police issued six tickets at the anti-lockdown protest in front of Peterborough City Hall on Saturday (April 17).
Four of the tickets were issued for violations of the Reopening Ontario Act and two tickets were issued for violation of the parks and facilities by-law that prohibits the use of drones in city parks.
In a media release, police say they are continuing to investigate information about the protest and may lay further charges under the Reopening Ontario Act and for the drone activity.
Police are reminding residents of the federal rules, regulations, and licensing for the operation of drones, available at tc.canada.ca/en/aviation/drone-safety.
“It’s also vital that we take this pandemic seriously and do what is needed — stay home and practice public health guidelines,” states the police media release.
