Members of the Estevan Police Service arrested two people on impaired driving-related charges on Wednesday.
As a result of a traffic stop in the 1300-block of Ninth Street, a 24-year-old man from Yellow Grass was arrested and is facing charges of refusing to provide a breath sample. His driver’s licence was suspended and his vehicle impounded. He will appear in court in January to answer to the charge.
A 38-year-old man from Moose Jaw was issued a 72-hour driving suspension after he blew a warning level on an approved screening device. His vehicle was also impounded for three days.
Police responded to a complaint of a possible impaired driver around King Street east. The vehicle was located and the male provided a sample into an approved screening device, with the result of zero. He was warned about his driving actions.
Members dealt with a 17-year-old Estevan youth Tuesday who had an outstanding warrant for his arrest. Officers contacted the youth and advised him of the warrant and he turned himself in. He was released with a new court date.
Police did a well-being check on a 27-year-old man who was located in the north side of the city. Members were able to assist him and help find him a warm place for the night.
Officers performed a traffic stop on a local man who provided a roadside breath test in which he blew a warning on a roadside device, resulting in the man receiving a three-day driver’s licence suspension and a vehicle being seized.
Police were called to a northeast area establishment to a report of a disturbance. Officers arrested one of the men for being intoxicated in a permitted premise and he was lodged until he could sober up.
