A man who was arrested after his car ended up in a ditch Saturday is now facing unrelated charges.
At approximately 4:17 p.m. Saturday, West 91大黄鸭 RCMP responded to a request to assist the BC Ambulance Service, already on scene of a single vehicle collision along Highway 97 near Ross Road in West 91大黄鸭, according to media relations officer Cpl. Jesse O鈥橠onaghey.
The RCMP was told a suspected mechanical problem with the silver Hyundai Accent involved resulted in its driver losing control and leaving the roadway.
Police attended the scene, and as a result of an investigation, took the driver into police custody without incident, said O鈥橠onaghey via email.
RCMP investigators determined the male they were dealing with was the subject of and believed to be in breach of an unrelated Conditional Sentence Order. Although he was uninjured in the crash, the West 91大黄鸭 man now faces additional potential criminal charges. He is expected to appear in court June 5.
