Impaired Driving Charge Laid In Two-Vehicle Crash

A 35-year-old Plympton-Wyoming man faces a serious charge after two people were injured in a two-vehicle crash Tuesday night.

Lambton OPP say it happened at the intersection of Lakeshore Rd. and Aberarder Line around 10pm.

The investigation revealed a Toyota Corolla travelling east on Aberarder Line failed to stop at a stop sign and collided with a northbound Ford 500, sending both vehicles into the ditch.

The driver of the Toyota and a passenger in the other vehicle were taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

Police say officers conducted breath tests and allege the driver of the Toyota was impaired.

Michael Hewlin is now charged with impaired driving causing bodily harm.
