    Suspicious Vehicle Patrol Leads to Impaired Dirt Bike Investigation

    Sharing is SO MUCH APPRECIATED!

    (TINY TOWNSHIP, ON)- A Sergeant from the Southern Georgian Bay Detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) conducting a neighbourhood patrol for suspicious vehicles and persons nabbed a dirt bike roaring around the Copeland Creek neighbourhood at approximately 11:30 p.m. August 30, 2025.

    The officer made the stop on Timberland Court after encountering the dirt bike being operated without any lights or licence plates on the roadway and upon speaking to the driver, entered into an impaired driving investigation.

    As a result of this investigation, 21 year old Nicholas HANCOCK of Midland has been charged criminally with Operation while impaired – blood alcohol concentration (80 plus) along with a number of Provincial Offences Act violations.

    The accused was released from custody to appear before the Ontario Court of Justice  on September 18, 2025, and was also served a 90 day drivers licence suspension. The involved vehicle was towed and subject to a 7 day vehicle impound in accordance to the Ministry of Transportation (ADLS) guidelines.

    The OPP remains committed to taking alcohol/drug-impaired drivers off our roads through enforcement and public education. If you know or suspect that a driver is impaired by alcohol or drugs, call 9-1-1. In doing so, you may save a life.  The OPP reminds motorists to plan ahead and to use a designated driver, cab, public transit, or stay overnight. Any amount of alcohol or drugs can impact your ability to make sound judgements. Enforcement and education is essential to save lives and reduce injuries on our trails, roadways and waterways.
