(Brant, ON) – A Brantford resident is facing charges following a traffic stop on Sour Springs Road.
On June 29, 2024, at approximately 9:40 a.m., a member of the Brant Detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) was on general patrol when a black Ford caught their interest after the officer was alerted by the Automatic License Plate Recognition (ALPR) system of a possible validation expiry.
A traffic stop was initiated. Upon speaking to the driver and conducting a Ministry of Transportation (MTO) query it was determined that the driver falsely identified themselves.
As a result, Jeremy PEARCE, a 47-year-old of Brantford, has been charged under the Criminal Code and Highway Traffic Act with:
- Obstruct Peace Officer
- Drive Motor vehicle – No Licence
The accused has been released and is scheduled to appear before the Ontario Court of Justice in Brantford on July 26th, 2024.
