In one incident, police say a 47- year-old Toronto man began yelling and swearing at officers after he was stopped around 1:15 a.m. on Tuesday. After being served with a pair of tickets, the man became enraged, got out of his vehicle and assaulted an officer, say police. As a result, the officer used a taser to subdue the man. He was later charged with as- saulting police and was held for a bail hearing. Earlier, during the same RIDE check, officers seized approxi- mately 1.7 grams of cannabis resin and an illegal butterfly knife after they stopped a 23-year-old Aurora man at the Port Perry checkpoint at 11:15 p.m. Monday night. He faces charges for pos- session of an illegal substance and unauthorized possession of a weapon. As well, a 24-year-old Oshawa man faces drug charges after of- ficers found him in possession of four grams of marijuana around 11:50 p.m. He was later charged with possessing a controlled sub- stance.

A RTS & ENTERTAINMENTdurhamregion.com Durham kids dance away with Greenbelt prize Ajax, Pickering youths best of hundreds of entries By Keith Gilligan [email protected] DURHAM — The telling of a story about a magical princess and fairies by a group of local dancers was the overwhelming winner of a com- petition by the Friends of the Greenbelt Founda- tion. The dancers, part of As Promised Productions, won the $10,000 first-place prize with Maid of the Mist. In addition to the money, the group also received a green belt. They received the prize recently in a ceremony at the Rotary Park Pavilion in Ajax. Choreog- rapher Toni Grates said the eight-minute rou- tine involved 42 dancers, mostly from Ajax and Pickering. “It’s a huge honour for us,” she stated, adding she and her business partner, David Di Giorgio, want to create an environmental children’s show and the money would be used for that. Nature, she noted, “provides me inspiration.” A Toronto resident, Grates is a graduate of St. Mary Catholic Secondary School in Pickering. Her charges performed the dance for the open- ing gala of the Niagara Falls Winter Festival of Lights last winter. The group began rehearsing last fall. “They worked so hard; to win an award like this is such a reward,” Grates said. “All the work paid off.” Burkhard Mausberg, the president of the Friends of the Greenbelt Foundation, said there were hundreds of entries, with 40 picked “to come down to (CityPulse) to be taped.” From that, 10 were picked and their videos put Ron Pietroniro/ News Advertiser photo on-line, giving people the opportunity to vote. As Promised Productions, aided by dancers from the Dance Experience in Ajax, won $10,000 from the Friends of the Greenbelt Foundation. Alissa Kuksis performs “We had thousands of votes. I think we had part of their dance, the Magic of the Mist, which won the competition’s top prize. more voters than the municipal election,” Maus- berg stated. “Forty-eight per cent of all who voted, voted for today’s winner.” it was preserved farmland.
