(Hawkesbury, ON) – On Friday May 16th, 2014, shortly before 1 am, Hawkesbury OPP Constable Jean-François Maceus intercepted a black 2013 Nissan Altima at the Du Chenail Boulevard and John Street intersection.
The traffic stop gave the officers reason to believe that the driver had consumed alcohol and that his blood alcohol concentration was above the permitted limit. The driver was consequently arrested for driving while having blood alcohol content above 80 mgs per 100ml of blood.
Consequently, the driver, Bill V. PAPANAGIOTIS (38 yrs) of Hawkesbury, Ontario, was charged under the Criminal Code of Canada with section 253(1)(b) Driving with More than 80 mgs of Alcohol in Blood.
He was also charged under the Ontario Liquor Licence Act with section 32(1) Driving motor vehicle with open container of liquor.
His vehicle was seized for 7 days and driver’s licence immediately suspended for 90 days.
He was later released and is scheduled to appear at the L’Orignal Court on June 4th in L’Orignal.
