A 45-year-old Mississauga resident faces impaired driving and cannabis charges after a traffic complaint at a provincial park in Saugeen Shores.
South Bruce OPP say officers were called to MacGregor Point Provincial Park on Bruce Road 33 shortly after 4:40 p.m. on Monday, September 28. Police say officers saw signs of impairment while they were investigating and arrested the driver.
Police did not name the park or say what the original complaint was about.
Vishal Kulkarni is charged under the Criminal Code with operation while impaired (alcohol and drugs). He is also charged under Ontario’s Cannabis Control Act with driving a vehicle or boat with cannabis readily available.
The vehicle was towed and impounded for seven days, and Kulkarni’s licence was suspended for 90 days, police say. Kulkarni was released and is scheduled to appear in the Ontario Court of Justice in Walkerton on November 4.
The charges have not been proven in court.
