On August 11, at approximately 2 a.m., RCMP officers responded to a vehicle crash; an SUV was seen coming to rest in the ditch near the 1000 block of Hwy. 277 in Dutch Settlement. While en route to the scene, officers encountered a man who was walking on the side of the highway showing signs of impairment. The man was detained and quickly identified as the driver of the SUV. The man was arrested and transported to the Enfield RCMP detachment where he provided breath samples that registered at 170mg% and 160 mg%. The 40-year-old Milford man, who was also wanted on a province-wide arrest warrant, was held for court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
