Driver Impaired By Drug – BULL

(HURON EAST, ON) – Huron County Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) has charged a resident of British Columbia with Impaired Operation and drug possession charges following a traffic stop in Seaforth earlier this month. 

On Monday, June 6, 2022, at approximately 1:11 a.m. a Huron County OPP officer was conducting patrols in Seaforth when the officer came across a car parked on Main Street South. The officer noticed the driver appeared to be sleeping behind the wheel so she stopped to check on his condition. Upon waking and speaking with the driver the investigating officer noted the driver was displaying several signs of impairment by way of a drug. 

A Standard Field Sobriety Test (SFST) was conducted roadside and the driver performed poorly. As a result, he was transported to the Ingersoll OPP Detachment for further testing by a Drug Recognition Expert (DRE). The driver complied with the tests and was deemed to be impaired by a drug.

Additionally, officers found the driver to be in possession of suspected methamphetamine and an opioid. 

Randall BULL, 50 years of age from Chilliwack, British Columbia has been charged with: Operation While Impaired, Possession of a Schedule I Substance – Methamphetamine & Possession of a Schedule I Substance – Opioid. 

He has since been released from custody with a court appearance scheduled for July 18, 2022, at the Ontario Court of Justice – Goderich.
