UPDATE: OPP arrest two for alleged impaired driving

Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) say two suspected impaired drivers were arrested on the weekend.

The first was on Saturday night, with a Woodslee man facing impaired driving charges after a crash in Lakeshore.

Police responded to a single-motor vehicle collision on Lakeshore Road 113 around 10:47 p.m.

A vehicle went into a ditch.

The 41-year-old man was charged with operation of a motor vehicle while impaired by drugs or alcohol and failure or refusal to comply with a demand.

The second was on Sunday evening in Kingsville. OPP patrol officers followed up on a traffic complaint just after 8 p.m. on Main Street East.

A 44-year-old Kingsville resident is charged with driving with a high blood-alcohol concentration.

In addition to scheduled appearances at the Ontario Court of Justice in Windsor on July 8, both drivers had their licences suspended for 90 days, and their vehicles impounded for a week.
