Charges have been laid against a Thamesville man following a collision.
Shortly before 11 o’clock last night, Chatham-Kent Police responded to Jane Road where a vehicle crashed into a hydro pole. Authorities say the pole suffered extreme damage and had to be repaired by Hydro One crews.
Officers on scene suspected the man behind the wheel may have been drinking. The 23-year-old was arrested, taken to police headquarters for tests, and charged with having a blood alcohol level over the legal limit.
He was released from custody with conditions and a date in court later this month.
