(CALEDON, ON) – On June 21, 2014 shortly before 3:50 am, an officer from the Caledon Detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) was on patrol in the area of Airport Road and Castlederg Side Road. The officer observed a black BMW travelling at a high rate of speed westbound on Castlederg Side Road.

The officer noted that the driver was driving erratically, swerving from the fog line to the center line of the roadway and continued at a high rate of speed. The officer activated the emergency equipment and the driver was stopped at the intersection of Airport Road and Old Church Road. Upon speaking with the male driver, the officer immediately detected a strong odour of alcohol on the driver’s breath. As a result, the driver was arrested and transported to Detachment to determine the level of blood alcohol in his system.

The Administrative Drivers’ Licence Suspension (ADLS) program was initiated and his motor vehicle was impounded for seven days.

The accused is scheduled to make his first appearance at the Ontario Court of Justice in Orangeville on July 17, 2014.

(PORT HOPE, ON) – Overnight on Tuesday June 24, 2014 unknown persons entered two UNLOCKED vehicles in the Municipality of Port Hope and stole the victim’s personal identification and other cards.

Northumberland Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) received a report that sometime between 11:00 pm on June 23 and 6:00 am on June 24 unknown persons entered two unlocked vehicles parked at the same residence on Dale Road near Port Hope.

The suspect (s) took a wallet that contained a driver’s licence, two bank cards, two Visa cards, Social Insurance Number card, health cards, two children’s health cards and some change. (It is unknown if anything from the second vehicle was taken at time of this release, but two vehicles were entered.) The wallet was eventually located further down the road from the home by the owner, but unfortunately it was empty.

The process of replacing these personal identification items is quite difficult. Culprits will use items such as these later in cases of committing identity theft which has long lasting consequences for victims. A simple, yet quick action of locking a vehicle and securing any property out of view can prevent these types of events from happening.

Again, OPP want to remind residents that a professional can steal your vehicle in just less than 30 seconds. A vehicle unlocked or an open window is an easy target. Protect your vehicle and property from theft. ALWAYS roll up your windows, lock the doors and pocket the keys when you park your car. Never leave valuables in plain view.

(SUPERIOR EAST, ON) – The Ministry of Transportation advises the motoring public that Highway 17 is fully closed at Jackfish River Bridge, which is currently under construction. This bridge is located on Highway 17, approximately 13 kilometers east of Nipigon.

Motorists may utilize Highway 11 and Highway 631 as an alternate route between Nipigon and White River. The duration of the closure is unknown at this time.
