North Perth man faces impaired charges

A North Perth man faces charges after police got a call about a possible impaired driver.

The Wellington County OPP says the call came in at about 2:20 a.m. yesterday after the man left a bar in Drayton.

Police patrolled the area and found a pickup truck that matched the description given to them in the ditch on County Road 8.

They spoke with the driver and confirmed he’d been drinking.

The 25-year-old has been charged with “Care and Control While Impaired” and “Control Over 80mgs”.

He’s scheduled to appear in court in Guelph later this month to answer to the charges.
