Routine stop leads to lots of charges

A 39-year-old Angus man is facing a number of charges after a Caledon OPP officer saw a vehicle run a red light March 31.

The officer pulled the pick-up over, and observed an alcoholic beverage was readily available to the driver, which is a violation of the Liquor Licence Act.

In the end, the man was charged with failing to stop for a red light, driving with liquor readily available, driving while under suspension, possession of an illegal licence, possession of the Schedule 1 substance (cocaine), possession of property obtained by crime over $5,000 and possession of the Schedule 1 substance (cocaine) fir the purpose of trafficking.
As well, a 22-year-old female passenger from Barrie was charged with possession of a Schedule 1 substance.
