Moving Day

The Cape Breton Partnership has recently moved from their longtime office at the 275 Charlotte Street location, to 285 Alexandra Street in Sydney. Over the last number of years, the Partnership has expanded its operations and the number of ongoing projects that support economic growth across Cape Breton and Mulgrave. With the addition of new activities and initiatives, the Partnership decided that more space was necessary to accommodate its growing staff and technology requirements.

Armed Robberies

A 58-year-old Sydney Mines woman was in Sydney Provincial Court yesterday, facing charges for two armed robberies Thursday afternoon.
Cape Breton Regional Police were called to a residence on King Street in Sydney Mines at approximately 2:00 PM, where a female resident reported another female had come to her door with a weapon, demanding money and then ran away towards Main Street. While on scene, police received reports of a second armed robbery at a business on Main Street. Within moments, police located a woman matching the suspect description running up King Street with a knife and quickly placed her under arrest.
