Belle River man booked for impaired driving in Chatham
A 59-year-old Belle River man who was looking for directions in Chatham early Tuesday morning ended up getting a ride to police headquarters in Chatham.
Chatham-Kent police said the man allegedly stopped an officer at the intersection of Wellington Street and Fifth Street in Chatham at 2:14 a.m. Tuesday because he was lost and looking for directions to Windsor.
The officer who spoke with the man believed he was under the influence of alcohol, so he was given a roadside sobriety test and then taken to police headquarters for further tests.
As a result of the investigation, the man was charged with having a blood alcohol concentration over the legal limit and was later released with conditions and a future court date.
