Two drivers charged with impaired operation in Northumberland, one driving on three wheels

The Northumberland Detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) has charged two motorists with impaired operation following separate incidents.

On December 5, 2025, at approximately 1:15 p.m., officers stopped a pickup truck on Front Street in the Municipality of Trent Hills for a traffic offence. After speaking with the driver, police initiated an impaired operation investigation. The individual was taken into custody and transported to a detachment for further testing.

Kevin GEEN (47) from the Municipality of Trent Hills, has been charged with:

–      Operation while impaired – blood alcohol concentration (80 plus)

On December 7, 2025, shortly after 7:00 a.m., OPP received multiple reports of a vehicle travelling eastbound on Highway 401 in the Municipality of Port Hope with only three tires and having struck a barrier. Officers located the vehicle stopped on the shoulder and arrested the driver for impaired operation. The individual was transported to a detachment for further tests.

As a result, Andrew MAC INNIS (36) from Caledon, has been charged with:

–      Operation while impaired – alcohol and drugs

–      Failure or refusal to comply with demand

–      Dangerous operation

–      Improper tires

Both accused are due to appear before the Ontario Court of Justice in January 2026.

For each impaired driving charge, a 90-day Administrative Driver’s Licence Suspension (ADLS) and 7-day vehicle impoundment were imposed as per statute.
