    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.

    And Further under the Provincial Offences Act
