Man charged with impaired driving following Sunday night booze cruise

A 57-year-old Tupperville man is facing a pair of impaired driving charges after a crash involving an ATV.

The charges were laid after an ATV struck a tree on Glasgow Line in the community on Sunday night.  The man operating the vehicle was taken to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries. Police allege he was driving while impaired, so he was arrested and later charged with operation while impaired by alcohol and operation while impaired with a blood alcohol concentration of 80 plus.

His license has been suspended to 90 days and he is set to appear in court on May 3.
