Just after 4:00 p.m. on August 30, 2016 a Huron County Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) officer observed the driver of a silver Honda sedan fail to stop for a stop sign located at the intersection of Colina Street and Catherine Street.
The officer activated his emergency lights and pulled the driver over on Colina Street. Upon speaking with the driver, the officer noted the driver had been consuming alcohol.
A roadside screening test was performed which resulted in the driver registering a fail.

He subsequently provided two samples of his breath to a qualified Intoxilizer Technician and both of his samples registered over the legal limit.
