(SOUTH HURON, ON) – A 22 year old driver is facing three charges after he was stopped by police on July 27, 2015. Just after 9:30 p.m. Huron County Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) officers received a call from a witness that reported he was following an Acura that was travelling eastbound on Dashwood Road in an erratic manner.
Officers began patrolling for the suspect vehicle and within a few minutes an officer intercepted the suspect vehicle at the intersection of Main Street North and Thames Road East in Exeter.

He has a scheduled court appearance set for August 27, 2015 at the Ontario Court of Justice – Exeter.
