(MORRIS-TURNBERRY, ON) - Huron County Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) has laid Impaired Operation charges against a Howick Township resident following an arrest made this past weekend.

On Friday, September 25, 2020 at approximately 10:48 p.m. Huron OPP members responded to a report of a vehicle that had left Harriston Road east of Bluevale and came to rest in a farmer's field.
