ESTEVAN - The Estevan Police Service has announced that charges have been laid in connection with a serious impaired driving-related collision earlier this year.

A 38-year-old Argyle man who was involved in the single-vehicle collision in north-central Estevan on Oct. 8 has been charged with impaired driving and mischief. The matter remains under investigation.

According to an EPS news release last month, a southbound vehicle struck a tree, then crossed a boulevard before entering an intersection. It then struck a fence as well as another tree on the opposite side of the same intersection.

The driver was transported to hospital with injuries. The vehicle sustained very heavy damage and was towed from the scene.

Also, the EPS received a report Nov. 14 of an impaired driver in northeast Estevan. The vehicle was found and stopped by members a short time later, which resulted in a 30-year-old Estevan woman being arrested and charged for impaired driving. She will make her first court appearance in Estevan Provincial Court on Dec. 19.

Members were dispatched to a domestic dispute in north-central Estevan. Occupants of the residence were spoken to upon Police arrival and the matter was resolved without further issue.
