(SHELBURNE, ON) – Officers from the Dufferin Detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) have charged a driver involved in a single motor vehicle collision with impaired operation.
On August 1, 2024, just before 10:00 p.m., Dufferin OPP responded to a single motor vehicle collision on 4th Line, in the Town of Shelburne. No injuries were reported. During the investigation, officers formed grounds that the driver’s ability to operate a motor vehicle was impaired by alcohol and was subsequently arrested.
As a result, Daniel HENDERSON, 38, of Mulmur, was charged with:
• Operation while impaired – alcohol
• Operation while impaired – blood alcohol concentration (80 plus)
The accused is scheduled to attend the Ontario Court of Justice in Orangeville to answer to the charges. The driver’s licence was also suspended for 90 days, and the vehicle impounded for seven.
