Dietmar Schroecker – Drunk Driving

(North Huron, ON) On November 10, 2009 at approximately 8:00 pm a Huron OPP officer was sent to a traffic complaint of a possible impaired driver southbound on London Road near Belgrave. While enroute to the first call, the officer received a second complaint that the same suspect vehicle had just hit a parked truck in Blyth. When the officer arrived, he found that the driver had attempted to leave the scene but had been unsuccessful.

The driver was determined to be impaired by alcohol and was arrested. He was taken to the Huron Detachment where he met with a qualified Intoxilizer Technician to provide two samples of his breath. The readings confirmed that the driver had a blood alcohol level that was nearly 2 ½ times above the legal limit of 80 milligrams.

As a result of the investigation and the assistance from the public, Dietmar SCHROECKER (57) of North Huron has been charged with one count of Impaired Driving and one count of Drive with Over 80 Milligrams of Alcohol. He will answer to his charges in Goderich Court on January 21, 2010.
