Windsor Police arrest three impaired drivers
The Windsor Police Service has arrested three motorists for impaired driving in separate incidents over an eight-hour period.
Shortly before 8 p.m. on April 14, 2024, officers were dispatched to the 4300 block of County Rd. 17 for a report of a single-vehicle collision (24-41460). In speaking to the motorist, who had driven into a ditch, officers detected a strong odour of alcohol and signs of impairment including slurred speech. The 40-year-old male was arrested for impaired driving and transported to police headquarters, where he refused a breath test.
Approximately two hours later, officers attended a parking lot in the 3700 block of Walker Rd. where a suspected impaired driver had pulled over with damage to her vehicle (24-41483). Upon arrival, officers encountered a 53-year-old female who had a strong odour of alcohol and was unsteady on her feet. Officers arrested the motorist for impaired driving and transported her to police headquarters, where she failed a breath test.
A third motorist was arrested at approximately 4 a.m. on April 15 (24-41549). Officers were called to a single-vehicle collision in the 300 block of Cameron Ave., and encountered a car that had struck a curb and sustained significant damage. The motorist, a 34-year-old male, had a strong odour of alcohol and was uncooperative with officers. He was arrested for impaired driving and transported to police headquarters for further testing.
