Gerald Cox Charged – Over 80

On June 27, 2009 at approximately 1:00 am, a vehicle stopped by a Huron OPP officer shortly after leaving a Goderich restaurant. While speaking to the driver, the officer detected the odour of an alcoholic beverage. The officer made a demand for the driver to provide a sample of his breath at the roadside and the driver complied. The result however was a fail. The driver was then arrested and taken back to the Huron Detachment where he met with a qualified Breathalyzer Technician to provide two more samples of his breath. The readings confirmed that he had over two times the legal limit of alcohol in his system at the time of driving.

As a result of the investigation, Gerald Cox (24) of Hamilton was charged with one count of Drive With Over 80 Milligrams of Alcohol. He is scheduled to return to Goderich Court on August 10, 2009.
