    Sharing is SO MUCH APPRECIATED!

    Driving while impaired just never ends well and on Thursday, September 25, 2025, at approximately 9:31 p.m. those words rang true as officers from the Southern Georgian Bay OPP Detachment responded to a report of an single vehicle crash which was south bound on Highway 93 at the time near Preston Road, Tiny Township.

    The vehicle entered the ditch causing serious injuries to the lone driver who was triaged by attending Tiny Township Fire Services and Simcoe County Paramedics and was transported to an area hospital for medical treatment.

    Attending OPP officers entered into an impaired driving investigation upon arrival and have completed their investigation with the following criminal charges being issued to Ethan MARCOTTE 22 years of Barrie.

    • Operation while impaired – alcohol

    And Further under the Provincial Offences Act

    • Drive Motor Vehicle Without Insurance

    The accused was released and is scheduled to appear before the Ontario Court of Justice on October 9, 2025. His driver’s licence was suspended for 90 days, and the involved vehicle was impounded for 7 days under ADLS guidelines.

    The OPP reminds the public that impaired driving-whether on roads, trails, or waterways-puts lives at risk. If you suspect someone is driving impaired, call 9-1-1.
